Marple Golf Club

I couldn't fault the welcome at the Pro's shop but it was soon clear that the course was not particularly inspiring. The main problem is the ridiculous number of trees choking the life out of the routing. There is literally no strategy other than to avoid the trees. So sad.

Even worse, it is bloody dangerous! Holes criss-crossing with no line of sight from one fairway to another because of the foliage.

Conditioning is okay and I guess it's worth crossing off your list at twenty quid. I'm sure the members love it, though!

Lovely course, well maintained. Really happy to play this course again and again. Very helpful and welcoming. Gets a bit waterlogged in places after heavy rain.

Shorter than average course but different holes and in great condition. Always enjoy a round here. Recommended.

Nice Course directions to holes could be slightly better and the on the holes there could be a picture of the hole so can see where to hit the ball

Played this course a few times and it’s always in great condition

Staff and members very friendly

Course is flat great for us wrinkleys

Would absolutely recommend this course

Nice relaxed round on a sunny day with very few on the course, no one in front or behind. Course in lovely condition, no boggy areas despite heavy rain over the previous week. Greens good, good variety of holes, friendly staff and members, highly recommended.

First time played and not disappointed. Course was in brilliant condition and loved that a driver was not always needed on more then half of the holes. Greens were some of the best I’ve seen and with rain the night before stopped them from flying past the hole at lighting speed. Fairways were perfect and rough was not excessive. Only negatives of the day were that a two ball clearly jumped in front and slowed the game down for the first 9 and some of the holes felt bunched together so found we had a fair few balls flying past our heads from other groups. Other then that would recommend this course to all levels. We will be coming back.

Good little course kept you thinking although not the longest. Played this for £15 on a weekend, very good value. Shame the clubhouse was closed when finished (6pm) as could have murdered a pint!

First time here and won’t be the last. Conditions and layout good. A little short but suited us fine. Little disappointed we couldn’t seem to get a drink afterwards. Will definitely be back

This has to be one of the best courses

for all golfers.

The greens brilliant.

fairways brilliant.

layout likewise.

Plenty of ballwashes and bins.

excellent practice facilities too.

Overall a marvellous place to play

the game.

Smashing course in good condition for the time of year

Not overly long but you need to put the ball in the right place

Something for everyone and the greens are pretty true if not overly fast

Played it last summer when it was really dry and the greens were scary fast

Well worth the effort to play and good value

Very nice course with numerous interesting and challenging holes. Greens were excellent and the staff in the pro shop and bar were fantastic.

Definiately return soon.

We used Teeofftimes a day begore to get an opportunity to play golf. Marple golfcourse popped up! We played there once before and kept good memories of the course. We were not disappointed. The course is still lovely and the members of the club are sincerely friendly. The fairways and greens were unfortunately wet, but we still had a nice game.

Shortish course, only one par 5 but interesting layout. Lost a couple of balls due to leaf fall, expected this time of year, but fortunate to get a mostly sunny round. The course is well kept and the greens were good, friendly staff and members, and good food later.

Comfortable course for the middle to high handicapper. Fairly short but in great condition.

Great day at Marple golf course challenging course great greens love playing this golf club

Course in excellent condition,greens great,staff and members very friendly

We are all in our late 60s early 70s and it was an easy course to walk with many interesting and testing holes

Played it a few times now at different times of the year and it is always well looked after

All in all a great course

Good course with challenging greens enjoyed the day but weather waterlogged some of the greens

Although the course is relatively short in length, it's still a tough challenge to all levels of golfer. There isn't a single hole that resembles another, and each overall offers you a new chance to use your full bag. There are some risk and reward holes, such as the short par 4's, 5 &8. The par 3 15th which measures 228 yards (Lay up, or go for it). The 16th which you can drive onto the fairway, but risk hitting into tree's. And lastly the challenging the par five 18th which is pretty much uphill all the way, making the 515 yards play a lot longer.

All together with some beautiful scenery over Manchester, it's a fun, yet true test for anyone's golf. And don't forget to take a drink afterwards in the comfortable 19th.
