Vale Royal Abbey
Played On 02/17/2019Beautiful course well worth a try
I turned up yesterday to play vale royal and was blown away by it, one of the best and stunning club houses I have seen, great warm up facilities and a fantastic course. I am not a long hitter and this did cause me a couple of issues on a few holes as there are some long holes but they are fairly balanced off with a couple of shorter ones straight after. The course condition where very good and the greens where fast for the time of year. There are a lot of bunkers which are well placed and I did hit a few but managed to get out with no issues. A fantastic course and I can’t wait to play again, my only issue was I had to play with anther group instead of on my own, which I prefer.

Played On 12/30/2018Real gem
I have always been meaning to play here & finally decided to give it a go, all I can say is I am disappointed... that I haven’t played it sooner. This course was a real gem, quaint & surprisingly really cute (feel sick say that but it really is). I was driving through the middle of a village when 2 large fields open up one on either side of the road and I realised the building just off the road is the club house. The pro was really helpful told me where the first hole was and any other issues that may cause a problem. The course itself is really open, well maintained and he sheep give it real character, most holes had small greens but great pin positions making it difficult if you miss them to make par as I found out. There are a few tee shots you have to play over roads which was a tad unnerving, especially as the 18th goes over the main road, but in all honesty I really enjoyed this course and can’t wait to go back again and again and again, just ashame it is too far away for me to play it weekly.
Leasowe Golf Club
Played On 07/16/2018Nice challenge massive bunkers
Turned us to play Leasow today and see a 5 ball in front of me teeing off and thinking to myself this is going to be a long day, but after the first they let me play through and flew round in just under 3 hours. The front nine had some great holes, the back nine had some of the biggest bunkers I have ever seen and sadly played out of, they where open standard!!! This course was a great challenge, very well maintained especially with all the great weather we have had the greens where green, not charcoaled and they were reasonably paced instead of either like putting on glass or longer than the fairways like some of the course I have recently played so well done. I didn’t test the amenities as had to pick the kids up from school hence the average score, I would give this course another play in the future
Bidston Golf Club
Played On 05/27/2018A real treat
I played this course a few years ago and didn’t really enjoy it so have put off playing here again, but due to the price though why not give it another go. That was a great decision I turned up early and had a really helpful and informative chat with the pro he was a real top bloke, 2 thumbs up. The corse was beautiful the greens were quick and responsive fairways well maintained and the roughs were playable, I found a couple of poor lies but that was my poor shot finding the really think stiff between trees!!!! To be honest I would go back next week and the week after and play again and again the gap won’t be as long in the future trust me
Northop Golf Club
Played On 05/08/2018Finally finished my round a year on!!!
I have played this course at the start of last year and managed to get round 14 holes before I had to leave due to a family emergency, so decided to come back again, part of me was glad I did and part of me regrets it. The pro was really nice and approachable when I arrived, the amenities appeared to have been improved since I last played so all started great. The first few holes where really great and are beautiful to play, until I got to 7th and the rough started getting thicker and had lots of dead grass everywhere making it really difficult if ni-on impossible to find my ball which really frustrated me, poor maintenance. I found some lies where really easy to play out of and others where so tough it was unreal and very difficult to find fairways from the rough. Front 7 great the other 11 a real let down
Pryors Hayes Golf Club
Played On 04/09/2018Nice course
This was a surprise to me as have heard mixed reviews of prior heys but I really enjoyed it. I turned up and the pro was giving a lesson and the was someone in the back of the pro shop but they ignored me as I could see them through the glass, so I just walked out on course hence the lower score on staff friendliness. Apart from the weather the only negative I could advise was the length of the fairway they were rough thick and hadn’t seemed to be cut for a while which I can only put down to the weather but I have played other courses in the last few weeks which are better maintained. This is a beautiful course which I really enjoyed and would love to come back in the summer when the course is fully maintained to see how it should play.
Prestatyn Golf Club
Played On 11/27/2017Great course well maintained despite the typhoon
I have to admit I was not really looking forward to this round as the weather was horrible and all other courses I passed on my way where closed, but wow this course was absolutely brilliant and the ground staff had done an unbelievable job with the course. The green were playing fast even though the ground was very wet with standing water on certain areas of the course, but they never really came into play for me. The pro was very nice and helpful even helped me with a new water proof jacket as I had left mine in work. I was pretty much the only person, probably crazy enough to play in the conditions for a full 18, so absolutely flew really round and was probably help by the 40+mph winds. I all honestly I loved the course and would go back tomorrow, including 17 and 18 playing across a road leading upto the club house which was a tad unnerving. Enjoy and don’t hesitate to book here
Runcorn Golf Club
Played On 11/05/2017Absolutely awful
This course was one of the worst courses I have ever played the course was completely waterlogged and in most places unplayable standing water everywhere. The course was poorly maintained and not sure if this was a municipal or not but most municipal were better. It didn’t help I got stuck behind a 5 or 6 or 7 ball depending on which hole they played which was frustrating and play was just rediculosly slow. Will never touch here again
Macdonald Portal Hotel, Golf & Spa - Premier Course
Played On 10/10/2017Great last minute booking really loved it
I have played 2 corses that have been simply stunning and this is my favourite of them just simply loved it some of the most stunning holes I have played all in one place. The course appears quite long when I looked a the distance but it didn’t feel that long. I could play here every day and never get disappointed just wish it was closer and membership would be mine. A must play to appreciate how good this is, stunning holes placed in beautiful surroundings the best of all worlds
Northop Golf Club
Played On 02/05/2017Nice course just confusing in certain areas
As this is the first time I played the course I will say the course is very pretty and has some fantastic holes on the front 9 even snook a birdie in but I did struggle to work out where some of the pins where from the tee as there where places where you had a couple of options until you got close and disappointed after the 10th tee shot as the holes after that where just not as good. The guy in the club house was erm feel a little harsh saying this but totally useless and unwelcoming. Having said all that I will admit I would like to go back and play the course again in the summer.
Vicars Cross Golf Club
Played On 01/24/2017Great greens well maintained
A well maintained course with very fast greens for this time of the year which was a surprise for the time of year. I could imagine this would be great to play in the summer and look really stunning, well worth a play. Pro was very helpful and helped me out with a few hints.
Hawarden Golf Club
Played On 01/23/2017Great course just bring your climbing boots
Beautiful course very well maintained for the time of year some of the best holes I have seen and played especially 18 absolutely stunning only gripe is 4&5 where closed but everything else was great appart from that. Would love to come back and play in the summer
Lee Park Golf Club
Played On 01/14/2017Disappointing
After reading positive things about this course I found it very disappointing in my opinion the course should have been closed as standing water all over the course and on a couple of occasions I hit a high ball it just disappeared into the ground, lost a ball or two because of this in the fairways. I understand it was a bad time of year to play and i expect the ground not to be great but when you are given a plastic matt to hit balls off from the fairway you know the course is in bad nick.
On the positive the pro was really nice told me where to go as have never been there before and most of the member where nice and approachable even had a nice chat before teeing off.
Denbigh Golf Club
Played On 01/07/2017Beautiful course well maintained a real joy
The title says it all I was advised by a friend a couple of months ago about Denbeigh so finally got round to playing and was amazed how well maintained the course was not a leaf on the course in the middle of winter wow. The views are simply stunning especially off the 10th tee. Memberso were really nice anday helpful even letting me play through whilst playing winter league. I can't wait to come back and play again.
I am really sorry that you had a bad experience and the course was not at its best. I would like to offer you a free round of golf for you and your friends who played that day..
If you contact me through our website I will arrange.
