Accuracy over distance

Played just before lunch today, we were on our way back home from an appontment and had earmarked this course previously.

Superb friendly welcome from the Professional; good area to warm up the old body with nets and putting green.

The course tself plays a lot harder than a mere look at the card. With some thought required off most tees

This is not a grip it and rip it course for sure. Excellent use of natural hazards can see you in severe trouble only yards from the green.

The greens themselves were the onlyet down, more because of a lack of fellow players repairing pitch marks than anything. They are very consistent for pace which helps but a little bobbly, though a little rain would help that.

Great to see the staff out on the course repairing divots and cutting fairways, the rough however we thought was a little tougher than needed. Spoke to some members and they agreed.

Overall a great picturesque course that we certainly be going to again.

We have played this course on a number of occasions and its always been a pleasure, greens and tees in great nick, and though whoever put out the yellow markers needs to have and though look as some of them were heading you into the trees!!! However, big bugbear in that there were no 150 yard markers on the fairways, only the disks on the fairways....golf is always trying to speed up play not having 150 yard posts dramatically slows things up, we were constantly walking up and down the fairways trying to find the marker discs!!!! Not good....overall though, great day in the sunshine.

Super gc

Excellent user friendly golf course, great lay out, superb greens. I was fortunate to be invited to join a golf society just before my solo tee time, so glad I did ,they were great company on and off the course. 15 mins after we finished the 18th the monsoon started, sincerely hope it has not damaged the course. I will definitely play it again. Well impressed and fairly priced. Highly recommended.

Great course in great condition, the greens were a little ropey and maybe could have done with a cut but besides that worth every penny

Hidden Gem - Scenic golf at its best

Course in great condition, fairways lush and greens very true. The course meanders interestingly along the foothills of Bolton presenting a number of challenging shots over gully's and streams. Many picturesque holes to play with the beautiful backdrop of the pennines to boot. Signature hole for me was number 5, 150 yrs, par 3 with the green protected by bunkers and a fast running stream and the St Andrews style foot bridge to get you to your ball if you are lucky and skilled enough to get there. Once the game was over the staff in the clubhouse were very friendly and served a well earned pint! If you get a chance play this little hidden gem.

Don't waste your time

I feel as though the title sums up the course. Possibly the most tedious 4 hours of my life and probably the second worse course I've played in 10 years of golf. How in summer the fairways run faster than the greens is beyond me, the green keepers should be embarrassed. Not only this, but you have to carry your own rake around the full course in case you end up in the builders sand; or as they call it, the bunker..

You should be ashamed of the comments you made about this course just played a great round of golf in February 2019 and both greens and fairways are in excellent condition, the staff, members and green keepers should be proud of their course

Great little course!

I’ve played here now about 6 times, never well though! It’s a tight course with some lovely interesting holes. You can’t over power this course. It’s was in very good condition when I played. I’ll play it again before winter hits. Well worth a visit if not to much rain has been coming down. A few holes are notorious for getting water logged. Recommend all abilities to play here.
