Ellesmere Port Golf Club - Hooton Course

Out of the 18 holes only had one Tee box had grass. Shame as the course was let down by this

The course is playing really well and for the price its a bargain.

The pace was a little slow on the front 9 due to in house competition, but not really horrible.

Would play this course again.

Good value for money course, layout is good and a little challenging on some holes. Greens were well kept but some tee boxes appeared more like bunkers, however considering the hot weather, it was as expected.

The club house could do with some renovation as it's showing its age, carpark is also quite bumpy with lots of holes.

Only thing I would complain about was the warm up net in front of the First tee. On my second shot, the ball flew UNDER the net and hit another golfer on the first tee square in the back. A full swing 3 wood shot straight into another golfer at 20 meters away is most definitely unsafe, and this is aggravated by the fact the staff were aware of this issue previously. The net was promptly taken down once the golfer who was hit complained. Compensation was most definitely due here.

I will be playing here again, but I won't be using the net!

Have played here lots of times over the years and can see the condition of the course is definitely improving. Unfortunately the pace of play is far too slow and will has put me off playing again here for a while at least. We had to walk off the course after only completing 12 holes in 3 hours and 20 minutes. Also had to park about 1/4 mile away from the course on this particular day as there was an event at the venue next to the golf club and people going to that had taken all the spaces.

Fun course , really enjoyed playing it. There was a comp infront of us so play was a touch slow but not too bad. Greens could’ve been quicker. But overall great value for money and will come back

Have played plenty of times over the years but the first time since it has been taken over by new ownership. Have heard that there has been improvements but tee boxes, greens and fairways looked worse than ever. Won't be coming back for a long time.

I know the club has recently had a few problems and they are trying there best, for me the course should be better looked after, the tee boxes were overgrown,a few of the greens were quite bad, the clubhouse bar is great and really friendly staff but the course needs some serious attention

The worst course I’ve ever played. It’s a pub with a field out back. Half the holes were closed and the ones that weren’t were terrible. I’d ask for money back as it was that bad

OK for the time of year, nice that new drainage has been updated,forward tee's & all greens on, £15 no arguments

Haven't played this course since last year,lots of trees but effort has been made to clear the main fairway's,greens in good nick,plenty of grounds staff knocking about,course has improved since last played and fair value for money

Very cheap but very frustrating as pace of play is very slow. Greens need more love and care. No scorecards and no buggeys. Too many dog walkers and not enough course etiquette. If your a bit of a serious golfer then wouldn't recommend. But if your starting out and don't care much for plenty of distractions then this is the place for you. Club house is the highlight 👌

Great price for 18 holes, picked a late tee off which was a mistake as treated my missus and stepson to their first round of golf so was slow paced and only made it to the 14th before darkness came from no where. Disappointed with the fairways as felt penalised for hit good shots because fairways battered in leafs so impossible to find your ball as they tuck under the leaves and when I say leaves I mean like 20tons worth on 80% of fairway.

Booked a late tee off with missus and step son and was there first even course they’d played. Not the easiest to navigate but we managed just about, rented a buggy too. Unfortunately darkness came fast and didn’t make it passed the 14th hole. Only downside was amount of balls lost, fairways absolutely battered in leafs like an unusual amount so a good hit and staying on fairway ment the balls tucked under leaves and impossible to find.

Played Ellesmere Port Golf Club recently and really enjoyed the round. The course was in good condition, fairways well kept and the greens rolled nicely with a decent pace. It’s a fairly flat layout which makes it an easy walk, but there’s still enough challenge with some tight holes and well-placed hazards. The clubhouse was welcoming with friendly staff and reasonably priced food and drinks. Overall, a great value course that’s ideal for both casual golfers and those wanting a solid test.

It’s a public course and offers golfers a healthy challenge from high handicappers to low ones. Tee boxes and greens are not in great shape but the course itself presents challenges with its parkland layout.

Course very dry, not in good condition, work going on, glad I booked throu golfnow not worth £25 in peak time, its a shame was a good course 2 yr ago

This course has been wrecked by poor management in recent past.

However work is now being done to correct this, the fairways and Tee boxes are fine generally, but the greens are still very poor, it looks like it'll take along time to restore it to it's previous high standard

The course was nearly in the best shape for a good few years. Only criticism was the greens not much grass on them and played like concrete but because of the weather lately understandable.
