Great Layout
Played following recent rain, a little damp underfoot but didn’t impact on play. A beautiful layout, great views over Manchester when playing the middle of the course, steep ascent, steeper descent back down to tree lined parkland majority of course. Some lovely par 3s. Greens ran faster than I’m used to but true. Pro shop was shut so left to own devices and made own way to first tee. Pace of play not an issue as course sparsely populated. Well worth a shot and not disheartening for a poor player like myself.
Hidden Gem!
Wow 😯 what a decent track
Drive in entrance very impressive
Obviously quite hilly terrain but excellent test of golf for all abilities!
Friendly welcome and cosy clubhouse with great views…. We’ll be back soon!
Little Gem
Booked to play on a whim and was pleasantly surprised on how good this course was .Don’t get me wrong it’s not the flattest track in the world and other reviews will say the same but I’ve always found that hills flatten out if your playing well and get worse if your not 🤔.Starts off with a stunning elevated par 4 start and all holes upto the 9th are very good .The 9th is a blind par 3 which seems lost really.The twelfth is stunning and from then on the course flattens out with 2 card wrecker par 4s to finish .All greens were fantastic and the overall presentation of the course is top notch will be looking forward to returning.Thanks M&T for a great round of golf.
Ste coxhill
Very good course,
Fast greens and open fairways give forgiveness if slicing a shot,
Would recommend to friends
Hard work!
Front nine quite hilly but enjoyable . Coursecis in good condition. Greens fast
Beautiful course, glacially slow pace of play.
Beautiful course, stunning views, in great condition. Hilly and the greens were rapid which made it pretty tricky combined with the wind.
Front 9, everyone was really friendly, let me play through, 2nd 9 ,got stuck behind an incredibly slow moving members competition which had sapped my will to play by the end of the round with all the waiting. One of them apologised afterwards which was decent of her but someone didn't want to let me through, which all seems pretty petty, especially when they're members. So instead of leaving with that warm, fuzzy feeling, I left thinking that I probably wouldn't go back.
Fridays best golf value
Just a great golf course. Quite hilly - but some stunning views make the climbs worthwhile. Greens were super slick. Fairways good - just a little spongy at the lower levels.
Great course
Great course with challenge but need to be aware of the hills
nothing
fine and up and under walking hills and best greens are all were putting too hard rough green were too good
Would definitely play this course again
Tranquil and scenic. The road into the club is fairly narrow and if it was busier could well have added 5-10 minutes to the journey with having to negotiate passing places - however, arrived in good time and tee'd off at the allotted time. Beware to 100ft vertical difference between the car park and the first tee! It was all downhill for a good while after that. Full and true greens so early in the year was unbelievable. Just the very odd bit of bogginess at the lower parts of the course - nothing to complain about. A thoroughly enjoyable day.
Great course
I played very early so set off before the club and pro shop had opened.. luckily all the tees are very well sign posted as it’s not totally straight forward to get to the next hole.. and I didn’t have anyone to follow for the first 8 holes.. the course has some challenging holes and does make you think your way round.. it also has some good scoring holes so a few good opportunities for some birdies.. the condition considering the rain of late was great. Greens were holding up well.. and the fairways were looked after as you play from a mat most of the time. The only downside was a couple of chaps started on the 8 so jumped in front of me and were very slow.. very slow.. as I was a 1 ball didn’t expect to be let through.. but eventually they did which was kind of them. Would highly recommend this course and I will play again..
Hidden gem!
Absolutely fantastic. Played as a 2 ball (12. - 16. Handicapers) and got 18 holes and a buggy for under £50 between us! Bargain! Full buggy paths on every hole and signs for the next tee made it easy to find your way around. Course was in immaculate condition and the greens was slick. Was a 2 ball Infront that didn't let us through but they had booked through golfnow aswell so can't really blame the venue. Will definitely be back.
Pleasure to play
Great course with views of Manchester in the background. Chipped in for a birdie to finish at the 18th. Pleasure to play!
First time at this characterful course, I will be back for sure.
There are a few hills to contend with and having rained heavily for the previous days the conditions were a little slippy in parts. The course is well laid out making the most of the location to vary fairways up down left right etc…. Spectacular views from the 12th tee and every hole has its own quirk. Thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and made to feel most welcome by members both round the course and in the clubhouse afterwards for the obligatory post mitten. I’ll be back later in the year when it’s dried out and expect it to be as much fun. Exceptionally well kept course, give it a go.
A hidden gem
This is a quirky gem of a layout, with no boring holes and really good greens, even after a wet winter. Not easy to get to but definitely worth a trip. As a 'green' golfer it would be nice to see new trees planted and properly protected and mature ones not felled for spurious reasons, but that's an issue at a lot of courses now.
