Excellent value

Nelson is a really interesting course. Lots of quality holes, one of those courses where the pictures online don’t do it justice. Considering it’s the middle of winter the course was in outstanding condition. It may be one of the top places to play for under £25 in the north of England, no wonder it has so many good reviews. Proper members course.

Oh and one last note- it was really busy which to me shows how good it is as the temperature was around 4c

Lovely course

Second time playing here, course in lovely condition, greens are true and have a lovely speed to them. Would recommend this to anyone, just a little heads up some of the greens and tees are quiet close together so may have to wait on some holes... This wasn't a problem though during my round but could maybe be an issue during busy times.
