Despite numerous days of rain probably the only course in the North west open
Obviously very wet in patches and the greens where brilliant
Staff brilliant 👏
One to return to!
Booked this at the last minute due to a mix up at the course we had initially booked. I’ve never been here before but was pleasantly surprised at how good it was.
The tees, fairways & greens were in decent order, despite the rain that we’d had leading up to our round here. We found the greens to be true & consistent, sadly our putting wasn’t!!
On the whole I did enjoy the round & I will definitely return. The only slight negative for me was due to this being a leafy course the leaves had been blown into piles in the rough & we both became victims of this with errant tee shots & then lost balls. If we could hit it straight then there’d be no negative points!
A great day & as I’ve said, it will be a course that we will return to.
Wetter than an otters pocket.
A nice enough course but no drainage and the whole course was saturated, it felt like playing on a sponge. I can expect that during the summer months this will be a nice course, 2 of the holes were closed which was not informed when I picked up my card. Just a little TLC and drainage and this would be a very nice course.
Great course but not informed of all the Winter Changes & Closed Holes
As my above review I still give the course a good review but when booking via golf now should be informed of the winter changes…
1. No trolley’s unless winter stud tyres.
2. Not allowed to play off the fairway (move to the rough).
3. Temporary greens but placed on the fairway.
4. All Par 3’s closed.
5. Hole 8 & 9 closed.
6. Charged full price.
The course looks lovely and can see how much work had been put in and in the summer will definitely want to play, but being charged full price and not informed about any of the above is disappointing even using Golf Now we still should of been notified.
Winter golf as expected
Played here a couple of times and at a cheap price, thought we'd give it a go again.
On arrival found they were on temp greens (maybe not surprising given time of year and recent weather) and that the par 3s were closed (shame as there are 5 of them). With no pro currently at Widnes, I guess there was no way of knowing / Golf Now being able to inform you of this. We just go on with it and it wasn't too bad. Some 'greens' were just in the fairway, while some had been cut a bit. Obviously shorter course and we played some extra holes to make up for the closed par 3s, but most holes weren't too bad under foot and we almost had the course to ourselves. Variety of holes better than I remember and would like to go back again when on proper greens etc. For a pre-Christmas knock, it was fine and we had a pint in the clubhouse afterwards.
Great day
Course in great condition, given the dry weather we have experienced over the last few months. Greens very redemptive and true.
Great condition
A warm welcome, strict dress code, course in great condition and a nice drink to finish. Layout well marked with the pro ensuring no issues from 11 to 12. Accuracy the main here so take plenty of irons, greens quite quick too and all in good shape. Will be back.
Lovely Friendly Course and staff
Great course play off 19 so not sure how testing for low handicappers but found it in great condition fairways greens and bunkers.
Well looked after and a credit to the staff.
Widnes GC
Great little course in excellent condition. Best greens I’ve putted on this year. Course tidy. Tree lines but rough cut short so finding the ball easy but trees cause the challenge .
Three ball round in 2h 45 on a Sunday.
Will definitely be back. Highly recommended. Although the highest handicap in my group was 2, mid and high handicap players would enjoy Widnes and get round.
Some holes cross over but this is the nature of fitting 18 holes into a small piece of land.
Get yourself over there - played here a few times since 1990 and this is the best I’ve seen it.
Staff very friendly too.
Great course
Brilliant course. Well kept and great friendly staff
Well worth a round
Course in excellent condition. Lovely clubhouse and bar. Great value, well worth an investment of a round or two
