Quick review

I live local use the range 1-2 times per week, nothing negative about the actual course as the weather has not been great so no complaints there, however the pace of play was ridiculous today I played on my own so 4.5hrs for 18holes, the course was not busy suppose wish "play through" had been used a couple of times.

Another promising year beckons at Hart Common

One of our favourite courses in recent years. First visit this year and it's clear that a lot of work had been done over the winter months to improve the condition, with a new tee being built on the 3rd and drainage being upgraded. Yes, it was still wet in places but given recent heavy rain, hardly a surprise. The greens are still a bit bobbly but again, it's early April.

Challenging but enjoyable, great value, very friendly staff and members, we will certainly be back.

Great course

Lovely course, great condition with near perfect greens. Only negative was the pace of play, perhaps overbooking on a bank holiday accounted for that

5 hour round.

Played this course before on a weekday and loved it. First time played on a weekend. Tee booked at 12:24 and took 5 hours to get around. Several tees had 2 groups before us waiting to tee off. Pace of play totally ruined what would have been a great day. Can not fault the course or the amenities.

Excellent course, great price.

First time played here. Lovely course, greens in great condition. For a tenner in the afternoon probably the best value course played in a long time. Wind was a bit strong so made some of the holes really difficult, especially the 18th at 460 Yard par 4, if you get on the green in 2 in any conditions then fair play to you. As a 3 ball got round in less than 4 hours. Definitely be back for a round in the summer.

Brilliant condition at this time of year

Being from the North West, Hart Common has the best reputations in the area with regards to course conditions and welcome. It’s a high standard, well kept course without the pretentiousness you might sometimes get from member-only courses. Considering it’s mid-February, the condition of the fairways and greens were brilliant and I really enjoyed by round.

As somebody who doesn’t have a club membership, Hart Common remains the #1 go-to for standards and affordability when playing in the North West.

Sunday golf

I was advised by a friend who played the course some years ago that it wasn't very good.

How wrong he was,really enjoyed our 18 holes.

I have been playing along time at a decent level,this is a very interesting layout.

Considering it was November the greens where very good as where the fairways.

I loved the undulating fairways and position of the greens.

I only went in 1 bunker which was your typical bunker in winter, hard and wet in places.

There is a driving range here if you need too warm up before playing.

We were welcomed by members and had a drink and sandwiches after the round.

Just 2 minor faults that we noticed and these didn't impact on our course enjoyment.

The carpark near the pro shop is very scruffy and untidy.

Also they could do with having easy access to a bathroom as we had great difficulty gaining access to the clubhouse.

Perhaps one close to the pro shop.

Would I play there again!.

Absolutely really enjoyed the course, if it wasn't 40 minutes drive I would consider asking for a membership

Great complex

Felt like you were playing at a full golf complex. The main course is great with some good holes and some that are nice and easy to birdie. Layout was great and green condition was really good (tiny bit long but we played in late Oct). Sand quality was good and fairways were pretty standard. They also had a driving range, chipping/putting green, par 3 short course for wedge play. The clubhouse is small but had a warm welcoming vibe to it. Great lunch selection for half way as well. Definitely coming back here for the green fee price we paid.
