Lovely course shame about the greens

Nice place, nice staff.

Some challenging holes with not a run of the mill layout having to cross the motorway.

Unfortunately the greens were in rather bad condition making difficult to put in places .

Weather

This is a great golf course when dry the weather has not been kind in the northwest , but we played 12 holes course way to wet and greens in play was saturated the winter greens a waste of time putting on .

Having said that it is a great course and clubhouse very friendly and helpful hot roast sandwich @£2.50 absolutely fantastic.

We will be back when dry enough to play

Leave it till the summer

Played in the summer last year and really liked the course - challenging holes and great views .

Although I enjoyed getting out this time of year we were only told on arrival that 7 holes were closed and 2 of the holes in play were on winter greens. We should have been told this before we made the 45 min journey.

No discount was offered and then we were all charged for Matt’s.

I’ll go again but not in winter

Great greens, great views

It was the first time I've played this course. Considering the amount of rain we've had recently it was no surprise that some parts were soggy underfoot and a few holes were closed. That said, the greens were in great condition and very fast, and the views from the top of the course were fantastic. I'll definitely be back when the weather improves.

Hope to be back

I would first say be very mindful of the chaotic road leading up to the course. I got stuck about 4 or 5 times with passing cars as only room for one at a time. Throw in dog walkers and bikers and it’s a bit of a nightmare.

Arrived and didn’t have a clue what was going on, shop was closed for a 3pm tee time and I was really early. I had to grab bottled drink from the bar, no card, drinks, balls or anything on offer, luckily I had everything with me but had to go with a water and fruit shoot.

No mention of hole closures 3,4,5 all closed which unless your a member would of been aware of as no any signage. Thanks to the very loud people on the balcony/first tee.

The views were good and I imagine the course is a belting one in the summer but on the whole not the greatest experience for someone new to the area.

Hidden gem!

Superb course in superb condition!! Proper hidden gem of a course. Technical but not overly difficult in that it can be forgiving of wayward play off the tee on some holes. But the rough is unforgiving on some too.

We played on a glorious sunny still day, I can imagine it’s a brutal challenge in windy conditions but an enjoyable one.

Stunning Course

Great course. Very hilly up and down. Lovely greens and nice pace. Incredible views over Rossendale valley and Manchester also.

Some tricky fairways, but a good challenge.
