Excellent Course

Great value for money with many £10 deals available. Great condition with brilliant views of Bolton. It's a high course up in the sticks so I can imagine it getting very windy on certain days.

Quite a tight badly conditioned track leading to the clubhouse, but a large carpark on arrival.

It's also fairly quiet in the mornings here, whilst others at the same time are on the busy side.

Good variety of holes with a couple of dog legs, long and short Par 3's also.

Highly recommended

In good condition considering recent rain

Fairways and in particular the greens in great condition considering amount of rainfall the previous week. Really liked the layout of the course but some of the holes on the back 9 (from 10-15) are tight. Overall a good challenge

Challenging course

We booked our tee time for 7.54 and nobody was around so was unable to get a score card or use any amenities. There was a large amount of rain through the night previous, but the course was in great condition considering. A few puddles around, but this was to be expected. A few holes we had to ask for guidance in term of location of the flags. A lot of the fairways were quite narrow, but was expecting worse from some of the reviews. Overall, a nice challenging course in decent condition and for the cheap fee's, definitely worth a round.

Greens are excellent but there are some holes which you are likely to be hit by a balll due to fairways and holes being to close to each other and they cross over which on a busy day can be quite dangerous.

Superb layout

The course is in very good condition greens excellent
The back nine is more interesting than the front nine.The views on the course are great.If you can drive the ball straight because the fairways are mostly narrow you can score well.I will definitely be playing it again.

Brilliant

In great condition. Greens superb. Only criticism is that holes 10 & 11 14 & 15 are squashed together. Well worth a visit though

We played at 7am tee off, although the club house was closed we were lucky that there was a member of staff there so we could get some score cards, The score cards did not have the course layout on them and we had no idea where to go or even when we started playing the layout of any hole, We had to look on there website, would be a good idea to incorporate a course map on the score cards.

The course itself was in great condition and we thoroughly enjoyed it, some holes were very challenging but as an improving players we loved it, Would definitely come back again.

Excellent Course !

First time playing the course and what a course it was ! Wasn't expecting much for considering the price we paid as it was only £13 on a Sunday but how i was wrong. Great setting for the course & although there is a few holes which overlap which can be confusing to first time players with no map on the scorecard, the overall condition, and layout of holes was very good ! Be warey of buying anything from the Pro shop though, nothing was priced so picked up my usual pack of golf balls as i thought i may need a few spare and was around 50% more expensive than ive ever paid.

So overall, definitely a course worth playing and one i will be returning to very soon !!

Note to self - (*must remember golf balls before returning*)
