Worth a try - better in summer Sun

Played this course in December - and my review is mostly written in a comparative fashion.

Course layout - this course is for the accurate long hitter. Many par 4s tempt you into cracking the driver. There are some tight ish woodland fairways. Hazards include streams, ponds, woodland and swans!

I wouldn’t recommend playing in and round wet weather conditions. It near to a fair amount of water - pond and streams. The course in general lends itself to heavy because of this. It is far better in the summer, you might be thinking so are most places - I’m simply saying make sure you book it many days away from rain because the course doesn’t drain well.

Greens let it down for a full price round £27+ they aren’t very big unfortunately. In fairness to the staff - the rest of the course is well kept - the layout is tricky and makes you think. It’s worth the £10-15 range in my opinion.

There’s a lovely club house that serves nice food and was a good atmosphere. Nice driving range available beforehand and very well located off the A52.

Good layout, bad green conditions

This course has the potential to be a nice tricky course for the seasoned golfer. Unfortunately at the moment the state of the greens make playing golf on this course nothing more than pointless. Each hole has a beach as a green, it really isn’t worth counting your score ! Fairways, rough etc all ‘ok’ but the greens are absolutely shocking. When they sort this out, recommended! But ring the club before booking to check.

A well laid out and challenging course, quite long but with nice wide fairways
The state of the course let it down, a lot of mud about, would highly recommend in the summer when it’s in better nick. Greens were great even if the fairways were struggling

Gem of a course

Located a 30 minute drive from Liverpool this course is a beauty. Wide fairways throughout, but if you end up in the semi rough it’s a real challenge to get out. The variety of holes makes it a real teaser for all abilities.

A little gem

Played this course a number of times over the years and thought it deserved a half decent review. A mixture of very long, mid range and short holes makes this course suitable for all types of games. Greens and fairways well kept and fast. Requirement to place balls on a fair few holes but also the opportunity to go for a smash on a few too with fairly open fairways. Would strongly recommend this course in the £15 - 20 region. Any higher than that there are better courses about for the price. There's an excellent club house which has sky sports and a decent food selection too.
