Golfer Reviews
Great course in great condition, fair challenge
Really enjoyed my round at Vale Royal, despite there being a lot of rain in the week the course was in superb condition. Flat, green tee boxes, short fairways, graded rough and fast greens throughout the course!
Quite boggy in places, mostly in the rough but didn’t affect the enjoyment.
I like the layout of the course as it makes you think about shots and ball placement- took irons off the tee on several par 4s due to very well placed hazards. There are a good mix of tough holes and opportunities and it’s refreshing to play a course where Driver off the tee is not an automatic decision.
Would love to play Vale Abbey again and highly recommend it!

I love vale royal abbey it's just a great place to be, I play there as often as I can and wouldn't want to be anywhere else.
Fabulous course
Played in wonderful sunshine with a mid afternoon tee time.
This course was in magnificent condition and must have been really well cared for during the horrific winter/early spring we’ve had. Finally some roll on drives and being that 20-30 yards closer to the greens make all the difference. Greens were a good speed, not rapid by any means but it’s still early in the season. Even bunkers, which seem to be neglected at a lot of courses these days, were excellent!
A thoroughly enjoyable round of golf and an absolute bargain on a hot deal!
Great course
Had a lovely day at a wonderful course . Everything was top notch greens fairways bunkers ( I went in many ) . Course is on another level. I've played many courses and this is certainly in the top 10.
Top class course.
Beautiful course superbly maintained some very interesting holes . No over long out to difficult . I really enjoyed it. Staff were friendly and helpful. Food and drink prices reasonable.
Can not fault this course
Can not fault this course as always greens are so good we love this course
Considering the ampunt of rain
Considering the amount of rain we've had the course was very good and the greens were incredible fair play to the green staff ...
Divot problem
This must be the only club in Cheshire that the members do not replace their divots, the first hole was absolutely destroyed and trying to find a position that you could play from without a divot was troublesome.
The divots continued to be an issue throughout, which shocks me considering the price at peak time is £59
Won’t be playing here again
Great course to play in the winter fantastic greens and fairways were bone dry fella in the shop said all tee boxes were open but a few holes was off mats but can’t complain lovely lay out and fantastic course 100 percent be back to play .
Little gem
Great track! Would happily play again! Infact im back in summer will be awesome on a sunny Saturday! Pint back at 19 was reasonable priced too
Great setting and course
I would recommend this course to all golfers that are looking for a challenge in great surroundings. Considering the time of year, the course was in excellent condition, especially the greens. Look forward to returning in the summer
One of the best courses I’ve ever played, considering the rain we’ve had, unbelievable condition.
Great winter course
Course in great nick for the time of year we played. All tees and greens open.
Brilliant
Wonderful course in picturesque part of Cheshire. As the course is built on sandstone, it drains well. Whilst lots of courses in Cheshire and Merseyside are closed due to the really wet conditions, this course was immaculate; in fact, I had hardly any mud on my trousers at the end of the round! Bunkers were all playable and in good condition. Friendly, helpful staff and many congratulations to the grounds staff for maintaining the course in such fine condition. Well worth the money.
