Great experience

Wet and windy day, course was playable but had experienced lots of recent rain. Some very challenging holes, some memorable experiences keeping out of (or sometimes getting into) trouble with old quarry workings. Greens were in remarkably good condition considering the rain - will definitely play here again in the spring/summer. Wasn't able to sample off-course amenities but staff were very friendly and helpful. Playing on the course was good, being able to see the weather across the Peaks and towards Leek was amazing. Look forward to a full day here sometime next year, and a meal afterwards.

Great challenging course with fantastic views

Considering all the rain recently the course was in pretty good condition; many others in the area are closed or only partially open. Played here many times before and its a good test of golf. Some long par 4s and a few tricky approaches requiring an accurate tee shot. Great views (once the mist lifted!)

Realy attractive layout, great greens

Really enjoyed playing and will definitely return when the weather is better, started in mist and had quite a lot of drizzle. All things considered the course was in great condition, greens were amazing. Really interesting layout, undulations, patches of rough which makes you plot your way around.

Brilliant course

Well after 5 days of non stop rain we turned up on a nice warm morning 3 of us . We was early so was talking to some of the members. What a great bunch of gent had a good talk and a few tips . The pro told us they had 1 temp green because of the weather. The fairways was in very good condition and the rough just long enough to give you a chance of making the greens. The greens was in very good conditions and quite fast . The lay out of the course is good and even though we had a 4 ball in for us the pace of play was good . I would recommend this course to anyone. A really well set out course with some good holes

Nice

Nice course in good conditions.

a few hidden hazards which make it difficult the first time you play (shot selection would've been different if i had known on a few holes)

Staff and other members very welcoming

Views around the course are absolutely stunning

Absolute cracker of a course

Superb morning of golf. The course is great to play, beautiful views, interesting and sometimes forgiving (which I need) holes. Even some showers couldn’t dampen our spirits round here, held up to the downpour well. Greens were still lovely and fairways all fantastic.

New toilets and showers if that’s useful to you.

Parkland course with views

Low handicapper. Enjoyable course, generally short but with some interesting holes. Greens true, soft bounce.

Pro shop staff were very friendly and accommodated additional requests. Clubhouse is like a pub/house but comfy.

A bit of walking between some holes, if you struggle with mobility get a buggy.

Good day

Always an interesting course to play, played many times over the years, but probably the last time, as now needing a buggy ,and buggy prices have increased by 50% in the last year .they prefer to see the buggies parked up rather than rent at a sensible price.

Hi u5597844

Really pleased you enjoyed the course as always.

Our buggy prices have only increased £5 in the last 4 years which is to reflect the new buggies we had last year and the increase in the price of electric. At £30 per round we believe it is good value and in keeping with other courses in the area, and most days all buggies are booked out.

Top course

I had a great day today at this surprisingly terrific course that I'd driven past far too many times over the years without playing.

The course layout is excellent and the greens are without doubt the best I've played. I'll definitely be calling back whenever I get the chance.
