Westwood Golf Club

Only been playing about 6 months, been to roughly 10 courses and this is the best by far! Brought 5 friends all individually all experienced golfers and they were really impressed! They've all been back.

Decent track tbf, that first nine ouch, be prepared for a bit of a trek. The fairways and greens are pretty good and pace of play was good too. Played on bank holiday Monday for a tenner best value round I’ve ever played. Members and staff very friendly, I will return……… with a buggy.

Haven't played Westwood for a few years as my ability to walk the steeply graded first 9 has long diminished. Went yesterday with the aid of a buggy and thoroughly enjoyed the day. I have not seen a course so meticulously kept for years. Congrats to the greenkeeping staff. The standard of my golf failed to match. Am not one for reviews but couldn't fail to comment. Give Westwood a go.

Hadn't played Westwood for over a decade, seeing the deal for £10 for 18 holes it had to be done. Course was better than i remember, hills were steeper also. Really enjoyed the game. The back nine being so flat makes up for the hilly front nine. Every part of my game was tested. Will definitely be back.

Two in one style course really challenging front nine with slopes and valleys and rolling fairways which really make you think and the tree lined rough will punish any errant shots that go wide.

Back nine is open parkland style which really reward those who are long off the tee with flat wide fairways

Would definitely play it again hopefully in the sunshine.

Weather was against us but the course was good

Great layout with a decent challenge but forgiving enough fairways that you can really let the driver loose off the tee on most of the holes and most greens surprisingly fast for the time of year, winter play is abit muddy or soft underfoot in places no issue for me as I carried but playing partners struggled abit with their trolleys, tees could be better sign posted or a map on the scorecard would be handy, we wandered the wrong direction a couple of times with it being our first time.

My first time playing here was fantastic. The condition of the course was great with excellent views from the high parts

Will be back soon

Arrived...friendly guy in pro shop...course was in great condition...chatted with member (keith...very friendly also)...overall we had an excellent time there..

Would recommend....We did hire a buggy mind to help with the hilly front nine...but have walked many times before....definitely go back...

Love the course, great condition, disappointing that we had to go to a nearby pub to get lunch. Still the golf was good.

Having only recently taken up golf I'm attempting some courses which test me a little more. I managed to get the round for £10 which was a fantastic bargain.

The course didn't dissapoint and I will definitely be going again. Thanks Westwood.

This course has two distinctive sets of nine holes , the first nine winds around a the hillside , there are four or five stunning looking holes 1 , 2 , 7 , 8, 9 , .

The 3 , 4 are just wide open to a blind green , the 5 , 6 are the reason I would not recommend this course to a friend- it is a really tough test of golf that can completely destroy your game for a small margin of error .

The back nine is traditional parkland with a winding river / ditches / tree lined fairways , I enjoyed the back nine , physically it wasn’t as demanding , but still requires accuracy of the tee and some really well hidden greens .

The condition of the course , really was a credit to the green keeper, the fairways were a joy to play off when the ball held on them ( 5 , 6 ) , the greens ran true and the ball held ,were pretty much the same across the board . I can’t comment on all the bunkers , but the two I went into were ok .

Overall this is a really good test of golf , some of the holes might be easier to play in the spring / autumn when the ground conditions are a bit softer .

Overall I will probably not return.

Westwood Golf Club provides a great challenge to all golfers, split into two nines by the topography of the course, the front 9 being hilly with holes set on the bankside. Really good challenge with the par 5 being extremely difficult due to the contours of the land. The back 9 in contrast is as flat as can be, with the River Churnet providing the most challenges. The extremes of this course make it a great challenge. Well worth a visit. Greens in good condition with a slow to medium rating, fairways in good condition, The only downside is we were not allowed to play the white tees.

Course is in great condition at the moment. The front 9 holes are a challenge for high handicaps and the 3rd hole is a challenge for mountain goats, what a trek up the hill. But great fun. The back 9 are all on the flat and pretty straight forward really. Overall a really nice course with two different challenges for the front and back 9s.

The only let down is that a couple of the fairways are shared which can hold up play.

Definitely play there again.

Good course, great value , some very challenging holes and good opportunities to test yourself
