Saddleworth Golf Club

First time us playing saddleworth today, staff were really friendly, great value for money for condition of course, some nice open fairways and some tricky shots all at same time. Really enjoyed it will certainly be back, even the rain didn’t put us off, one of our group got a hole in one on the 15th he owes everybody a drink! :-)

This is my first ever review of a golf course but i felt it only right on this occasion. First time I have played at Saddleworth, got a hot deal price, i do know the area and i have always assumed the course would be very hilly but it wasn't, yes there are some hilly parts and I am a man in his 50s and I have a carry bag but i was fine, some fantastic views, i will certainly will be going back soon. I didnt try the clubhouse but it looked busy. The Lady in the pro shop was very helpful and welcoming also other playing members on the course were friendly, something you dont always see at other courses.

My one and only niggle and i have seen a similar review for Saddleworth, next tee signage few and far between and I struggled to find the Summit tee box (can't remember the hole) but another player on an adjoining hole pointed me in the right direction but having played the course will have no issues next time.

This is a true golfers course. Well kept, fantastic greens and fabulous views. You will struggle to find better.

Played on a warm cloudy afternoon on a quietish afternoon.The course layout is challenging and in excellent condition.Greens in great condition and only 3hours 30 minutes for a 2 ball including searching for stray shots on some holes.Lady in the pro shop very pleasant and helpful.One small fault was not always well signposted from green to next tee but will certainly be playing again.

Unfortunately we played on temporary greens due to the recent terrible weather. The course was still in good condition and challenging, we will definitely be playing here again.

Lovely views

Course was dry considering a lot of rain

Friendly staff

Bargain for £15

Excellent course, spread out well! One of the best I've played at so far

Played today in wet n windy conditions but had a good laugh, excellent welcome from the pro and some helpful tips, definitely returning for another game soon , thank you

The course itself is a lovely tree lined setup with the views over Saddleworth, can be challenging walking so be prepared for that.

But otherwise a delightful golfing experience and incredible value for money. Highly recommend!

I played this course on Monday and Wednesday.

First Impressions were excellent. The pro in the shop, sorry never got her name, was lovely.

Really explained the course, what she expected from the visitors. Just took her time and made you feel welcome.

The course it’s self is lovely. Both days I played the day before was torrential rain. Didn’t see one puddle. The course is on the side of a hill but drainage was superb.

The strange part was the greens were very soft. The ball would stop dead to where it landed. When you walked on the greens you expected them to be slow. They weren’t. The roll was fantastic. The greens are some of the toughest I’ve played in a long time. The breaks look little but often aren’t. If you decide to play this course and see a two inch break. Play for 4 inches.

The fairways and tee blocks were immaculate.

The course isn’t hilly compared to some. But it is up and down and a few parts take there toll. To be on a hill it’s layout is fantastic.

The members are lovely and welcoming. Especially if you treat the club with respect.

Anyone who hasn’t played it before should. It’s a challenge. Strange that the first time I played a shot 74 but 75 on the return. Thinking that knowing what to expect would help, didn’t.

Thanks Saddleworth, throughly enjoyed.
