Oldham Golf Club

Very enjoyable round, front nine relatively straightforward the back nine mostly rests on a hill so the fairways are sloped and some of the holes are out of sight from the tee. The best holes are 2,4 and 17 however they are all great.

We played early on a Sunday morning and course was in great condition, we really enjoyed our round.

Pro Shop not open - a supply of scorecards would have been helpful. However course well marked so not a massive issue.

Confusing layout on back 9 with greens sharing 2 flags with no instructions as to which should be played .

Fairways on severe slope leaving good shots kicked into rough

2nd time playing this course. 1st was just after lockdown and the greens weren’t great. This time though everything was better so obviously staff back doing a great job. Greens still a little bobbly and a few tee boxes could do with flattening out but all in all it’s a good course. Plenty challenging holes especially on the back 9 as you start to climb into the hills. The 17th has an amazing view towards Manchester as you drive back down to the clubhouse. Will definitely play again

Very friendly staff with warm welcome

Course was in great condition coming out of winter ready for summer

fast greens

front 9 parkland feel with back 9 moorland with undulating fairways

great views of the area

worth a visit

Oldham is a good challenging course for all abilities. Front 9 plays fairly flat, the back 9 more undulating with superb views from 10 onwards.

A friendly, relaxed club with good people on board

Not bad for the price. Back 9 is mega hilly. No practice facilities at all though

The greens are bobbly and sandy and the tee boxes are very uneven which is a shame but overall it’s not a bad course. The back 9 rise into the hills giving some excellent views. Quite a number of blind holes so it was difficult to judge what to do considering it was the first time playing this course so will return again to give it another go. All in all an ok course that’s clearly been hit hard by the pandemic

First round after lockdown. Easy to book, no queuing, no waiting on tees. The greens were a bit bumpy. The fairways in good condition. The course is basically split into two. First 8 are all pretty flat. The next 10 are mostly either uphill or across a hill with either a left to right or right to left slope on the fairways and consequently you had to be very straight to avoid running off into the rough. There were a number of holes were you couldn’t see the flag.

All in all an enjoyable if hilly course. Wouldn’t like to play it in a strong wind, it was hard enough with 16 mph gusts. Would definitely play again now I know where the greens and traps are. Well worth £15. Very friendly staff and members.

Lovely course and 1st time playing here, leave your driver at home would be my advice!

Ground was really boggy and very soft in most areas

Some greens were un useable full of sand and tread marks from vehicles

I booked the course on golf now last minute

And was pleasantly surprised the course is in very good condition and has good drainage the first 9 holes are flat and open and the last 9 are on the hill hard work but worth it we was using course mats to tee off and are own on the course

But overall course good and good value for money

Despite the really wet conditions prior the fairways were in really good nick. Oldham is known for its challenging back 9, yet the greens played superbly considering the time of year. Some of the members playing were friendly and welcoming and no one was rushing you along.

A really enjoyable morning
