Oldham Golf Club

Love this course but my only gripe this time was that they had sanded the greens which made them slow and bobbly. Another issue was around the tees needed tidying up ( see pics) Oldham is a short yet challenging course with a few cardiac hills to contemplate. I’ll deffo be back when the greens show some improvement 🤞

I was booked on at 4:20 and when I arrived there was footgolf booked at the same time and to top it off most of the course had people walking across the fairways, in the end I just called it a day in the 5th hole as I couldn’t get a proper game in without random people walking across

Course was in good condition for this time of year, considering how much rain we've had. There were a few damp areas where the ball would plug, but overall we were very happy. It will be perfect once it dries out a bit.

The course was in very fair condition considering the course neighbouring Oldham was closed due to rain. Hard work playing the back 9 holes with it being very hilly although fairways were quite dry and firm. At £12 for the round very good value and a nice sunny day was enjoyed.

Course was good. First 9 holes are quite easy going. Back 9 is like climbing mountains, but you do get great views of the surrounding areas and it's got quite a pleasant breeze as well. Overall good value for money at £15.99 Golf now offer. Hard work with a push trolley, carry bag recommended.

Came on an unfortunate day to catch rain in July. Had the course to ourselves due to being very quiet. Bad tee boxes with hardly any grass and water logged fairways. Found no practice/warm up areas e.g. nets, putting green practice area didn’t look the best. Wouldn’t recommend.

The course seems nicely kept. Very good value at £22 for a visitor round.

Played early on Saturday morning, so no one else was on the course. Very hilly in parts, so a physical challenge, but that leads to some great views of the surrounding area and Manchester City centre. Layout of the course was challenging in parts, with no par 5s, and a few long par 4s. Some difficult blind tee shots, tricky uphill par 3 holes, and hidden greens to navigate. A good fun challenge.

Easy to follow, hly back nine but friendly and welcoming,

I really enjoy playing this course casually. Probably has the best views from a golf course in Manchester. Its hard to score on the course due to the conditions of most of the greens. If you are looking for a casual round with a nice view and a bit of up hill walking, this place is great.

Very good experience. I played with my friend for the first time tome

I don't want to be harsh but this course is very hilly and very slopey not really for me , the greens weren't in great condition, a lot of the bunkers full of weeds and stones some really bare and the tee boxes all wonkey and bare.

Now to be fair we have had a lot of dry weather so I get that it's hard keeping the course in good condition but I think more could be done. The staff in the pro shop were nice enough can't fault them , not sure if the club house was open for a pint and something to eat it didn't look like it and there is also no warm up/practice facilities no putting green or nets. I paid £12.99 on a hot deal so my round was cheap enough but I wouldn't want to pay much more than that, it's OK for a knock as long as you are physically fit enough to get up and down the hills , I hate to be harsh or sound like a snob but I'd rather be honest.

Oldham golf course is a quite challenging golf course.

The lower first nine holes are quite flat then the incline starts.

From then on the course all slopes down to the right.or the left if your playing the opposite direction.

It carries on going up hill on every hole until the 16th which is a short par 3 then onto the long downhill 17th before going towards the clubhouse at the 18th.

The course could do with some attention to the bunkers and the greens which I've been told the New greens keeper is working on them and should be alot better next year.

Great course with some amazing views or Oldham and Manchester
