Malkins Bank Golf Club

Not played here for at least 25 years due to work comittments but since retiring and taking golf back up again, I have to say the course and all its amenities have been vastly improved and throughly enjoyed our 2 ball round on Sunday even though the weather was a little too hot. Will most definitely be booking again but as a further pointer to other people wanting to book a slot here, please do not use Golf Now to reserve the time slot as we were double booked for our slot and Malkins bank only now use their new booking system of "Golf Booking"

Much improved conditions. Good value and ok pace.

Played many times over the years and was OK. Course never seemed cared for before. But the last few rounds have been a lot better. Good condition and we can see the improvements that have been made recently. Please don’t get greedy on green fees like some other courses have. A pleasure to play - keep it up. 👍

Poor conditions

Played this in June in the middle of summer. Fairways were rock hard in places where it was unable to take any turf with shots, obviously no fairway watering. The green had a lot of sand on and were extremely slow. Lovely course layout but poor conditions.

Sad

Used to be a lovely track however its gone downhill massively , heard a story about the shocking management from a member apparently its all on companies house the owners have gone into liquidation owing 100s of thousands , no doubt another company name ready and waiting very poor , green keeper was an angry little man as well

Hidden Gem

Strongly recommend playing this, worth a drive, the value is incredible, some really tricky holes, some really fun par 3s, and an overall blast. My new go to regular.

Okay if you can get it for £10/15.

In comparison to other courses of a similar price (£25 at the weekend) there is a lot of work that needs to be done; fairways are not in good condition, tee boxes are wonky with many chunks missing from them, the rough is just a no go (almost impossible to find your ball in it).

Great layout, slow play.

Nice course which has a good layout, condition was fair. Greens could have done with a cut. No driving range balls available. Members ahead of us in a 4ball all day playing painfully slow, would not let us through as a 2ball. Another member slowed play by failing to play provisional balls from the tee on multiple occasions, so had to walk back to the tee. Frustrating. Overall, a decent course and would play again.

Greens not Great

Played here a few times and enjoyed each one, course is pretty good but the greens were quite poor, very bobbly and scorched. Had some beautiful weather recently, if your going to put the sprinklers on do it after sunset.

Still going again next week, great value for money.

Average course

For £15 for 18 holes this place is a bargain. The course itself is in decent condition but the greens need a lot of TLC
