Ulverston Golf Club
Played On 08/09/2018Wonderful course with magical Lake District views
Course is ok without being too challenging for the handicap golfer. Could be tough for amateurs as it is long with some challenging holes. #5, #17 #18 in particular are challenging and also visually spectacular. I played twice during the week. 1st time got around in 2 1/2hrs but had to abandon back 9 2nd time around even though I teed off at 4:10pm. A group of slow golfers ahead..
Book through tee off times to get a deal since you would end up paying less than the usual over the counter fee of £40. Enjoyable, challenging enough to keep the golf nerd interested and the scenery is magical
Cobtree Manor Park Golf Course
Played On 06/30/2017Good day out on the golf course
I've played at Cobtree Manor a few times now whenever I visit my wife's family in the UK. Close to their residence and great value for money at just £16 for 18 holes. Played at 7am this morning and it was a cracking day weatherwise. The course looked in great condition and played really well. The greens were firm but played true and pin positions were in places where you had to think about shot selection.
I play off a 25 handicap and it may not be a challenge to allow handicappers as much but I have played a fair few courses around and Cobtree presents enough of a challenge to warrant going back for another round. I will definitely be going back at some stage next week for another round.
Didn't try the off-course facilities (bar/bistro etc.) but they had a practise green, some nets to warm up at before the first tee and plenty of parking available.
