Second time playing at Marple and this round was even better than the 1st time. Course was in really nice condition, weather was perfect and the location really good.

This course is challenging enough for mid handicappers and beginners.

The course is situated along quite a narrow country road with a few tight bends. Go slowly and be prepared to use the passing places.

The pro was very friendly and helpful. All of members or other players on the course were polite and courteous and whilst this was not the fastest round of golf the pace was steady. The course was busy but you never felt you were waiting a long time to play your next shot.

Considering the rain we have had the course was in good condition. A little soft along the edges of some holes where the ball easily plugs. Greens were in good condition and flag placement was fair.

We will definitely return as the course is challenging enough for low handicap but a nice course for a relative beginner which my step son is. He loved the course as he was very rarely in trouble despite being a little wayward.

Friendly staff in Pro Shop and the starter was excellent. Whilst its winter conditions the course is still in good condition and on all normal greens.

The club house was closed for a private function which is a pity as we were looking forward to a drink, bar snack and the 6 Nations Rugby.
