Work in progress

Has the potential to be a really nice course and there are obvious signs they are putting some serious effort into achieving this. I think given another Summer and some work over next winter this will be a very good course. I will pay a visit next year and see how it has progressed.

No trolleys

Was told on arrival that I wasn't allow to use my trolley which was a bit awkward as I have a rather large cart bag which ended up getting filthy and wet due to the rain (I did however see some people using trolleys on the course?). As for the course itself it was in excellent condition for the time of year especially the greens which were a credit to the greenkeepers. Absolute bargain at £12.50 wouldn't hesitate to play again.

Very wet

Played other courses around the area and none of them hold as much water as Blackburn GC. New professional just joined so very little stock in shop but I'm sure that will change soon, he was very friendly. A couple off the tees were quite difficult to find also. Overall it was good to be out playing although wasn't a true reflection of the game as so many greens were pretty unplayable and the fairways had been spiked (to get rid of the water I would imagine)

War of the Roses

First time playing golf on the wrong side of the penines but if this place is anything to go by I will be back. Everything about this place was top notch and the clubhouse was worth the £12 green fee alone with memorabilia provided by local Billy Foster! The course it's self was in excellent condition although they had done some work on the greens which was a shame. Still had a good day out and will definitely return.

Panoramic views

Unfortunately it rained heavily all morning but considering the amount of rain the course held up well. Some serious uphill holes (2&18) and windy conditions made the back nine tough. I would love to play here I the height of summer and I will definitely be doing that next year! It struck me as a really friendly club from the lad I the pro shop (who sold me his putter at a very reasonable price!), to the green staff and all the members I came across. All in all had a wonderful days golf (apart from the score!) and look forward to playing there again.

Old Links

Excellent course. Everything about this place is top notch, from the well stocked pro shop to the excellent condition of the course to the friendly members. If only it was a bit closer to home I would be a member here without a doubt.

Best greens around

Without doubt the best and fastest greens I have ever played on (and I've played courses all over the world!). I have recently taken the game back up and have been playing different courses in the local area with a view to becoming a member. After playing at Accrington I have decided it will be here I become a member, even though it's not my closest course I was that impressed! From the friendly greeting in the pro shop to the super quick greens, I was impressed with everything. I believe there is a new head greenkeeper who is enthusiastic and has made a huge difference (according to the member I played along with). I cannot recommend this place enough and look forward to becoming a member.
