Getting better and better

Play here regular, always good to play, the course is getting better and better the only niggle and it is only a niggle, is that some groups don't allow you through. Which can make for a very long round. There are plenty of opportunities to allow quicker players/groups though but "some groups" just don't. Only thing that let's it down

Good course with nice wide forgiving fairways. Course is in great condition!

I'm new to golf and found this course really nice to play. You won't be punished too much from the odd duff shot.

Decent spot, will play again

Friendly

while since I last played here, course was in very good condition and it was good to see the green keeping team working on the course making changes to some of the holes.

it certainly disguises the fact that this is a municipal course and stands up to many private courses in the area in terms of course condition.

After my round I popped into the bistro located above the pro shop, the food was excellent and very good value,

Cracking track

Always love playing Towneley - great variety of holes. Shame that for the duration of the back 9, the three guys playing in front of me wouldn’t let me play through - hey ho.

Great

Greens were immaculate. Layout is a bit strange for the first time round there but still good.

A few players behind on the last 9 were playing right up to the 2 of us which was really distracting but not the course's fault.

Unfortunately there was a massive rave on in Townley park at the same time so alot of idiots shouting fore etc. Near the course but again, not the courses fault.

Will be back.
