Nice course and reasonably priced

First time playing Burnley GC and I was greeted by a friendly welcome from the club pro, i played just after some heavy rain and whilst it was damp under foot the course and drained very well.

The Greens were in excellent condition, it was definitely more hilly than I was expecting and the only minor downside was this menat there were a lot of blind tee shots so you had to trust your marker post off the tee.

Overall an enjoyable round and I'd definitely recommend playing here

A challenging course

First nine a bit of an Everest assault, back nine less so. Challenging throughout as built on the side of a hill. Some nice par 3's , plenty of water and well guarded greens. Several blind holes, one had marker post for drive, and a second marker post for second shot. We lost quite a few balls. Greens were superb.

You need to be fit for this course

Decent course

Nice enough course but a few things let it down.

1. Not enough memorable holes- most are just average I’d say

2. Very hilly course. Most holes are uphill or sloped upwards. It’s a bit of a slog to be honest

3. Burnley GC must have the most blind shots of any course in the U.K. I’ve never seen anything like it. One par 5 had a blind tee shot and then a blind second shot.

4. Not a negative as such but lots of signs everywhere telling you what to do and what not to do. Burnley GC must hold the record for the sheer number of them. My favourite being ‘please wear spiked shoes- soft spikes not ideal’ or something- on the 9th tee!

I paid £17 which is good value despite the fact I wouldn’t play again due to the points above.

Tidy course

Really nice course. Played off winter tees but all greens where in really good condition. And although we've had plenty of rain this week the course was really dry.

I would definitely play again and would definitely recommend to others.

Great winter golf

Not sure what the review below is on about, all greens were in play, playing off winter tees / semi rough.

Course in good condition for the time of year / helps being up in the hills.

Clear day too so visibility / views were great.

Highly recommend.

Fantastic

Best course I’ve played in a long time. Everything about the course is fantastic, from the fairways to the greens. Everything was in superb condition.

This is a moorland course, so expect a couple of hills but don’t let that put you off. I’ll definitely be playing here again.
