PLAY THIS COURSE...

This review is from a mid-handicapper who enjoys the journey more than the destination and I would recommend this course without reservation. That said, my playing partner is off 6 and he loved it too. We are going to play it again now we know the course; there are several blind shots, the greens are subtly formed so every putt makes you think and think again... Off the course the staff and club members are delightful and the catering very enjoyable. Go and play a wonderful course, if I lived within ten miles, I would be a member!

Great winter golf

Only course that was fully open after all the rain. Course in fantastic condition from tee to green. Abit wet on fairways but drainage is very good. Got a hot deal for £12 so can't complain at the two temp greens they had on. Every hole is different and the views are great. Definitely recommend to anyone who hasn't played it before. One of the best in the North West

Storm Babet!

We played the day after Storm Babet, and didn't expect the course to be open. It was and in amazing condition despite all the rain in the days before our round. Some great holes and amazing views, not too difficult but with a few blind tee shots. Good facilities and pro shop, will definitely play there again! Highly recommended.

Great course

Great course, was on all temporary greens which is a shame given the cost. That said great views and could see what a challenge it could be when full greens are in place

Will likely come back to try it when temporary greens not in force
