Darwen Golf Club
Played On 08/30/2020Best value for money course in the area.
I got this tee on a hot deal for £10. I'd played here before and thoroughly enjoyed it. Playing here again I looked forward to even more especially with the nice weather.
Course is well looked after and always has green staff out working.
Only down side was no pro shop or clubhouse open at 8:30am for me to get a card and also to access clubhouse afterwards as it wasn't open.
Staining Lodge Golf Course
Played On 10/17/2020Good value for money
First time playing here, didn't know what to expect, especially with the rainfall in the past week. However, the course was really well presented and maintained and definitely well looked after, a few boggy patches but that's understandable.
Layout was tricky, some open holes, dog legs, tricky par3's. Overall a good test of golf on a really nice layout.
Only downside for me was two groups in front were both super (Mulligan's every hole) slow and wouldn't let me through (solo player).

Found this course on GolfNow on a hot deal. Payed £13 for my round at 9:46. Course was a bit wet in places and sloppy aswell, found that out the hard way on one of the holes by slipping on my butt down a small hill, shorts ruined, but never mind.
Enjoyed my round, great layout and some tricky holes. Nice mix of holes and layout to challenge anyone.
Only negative was a personal one (aside from ruined shorts) I was a solo golfer and had a pair in front of me who were a little slow, they insisted I played through despite me not wanting to, I felt rushed after that and lost my head on a few holes until i got back in to my stride.

Played On 08/30/2020One of the best value courses in the area
Played here once before in the winter and thoroughly enjoyed it, even in the cold and rain. I swore i'd return once the weather picked up, so I did.
Course is well maintained, tricky layout, staff are all friendly, members also.
I paid £13 on a hot deal for a round here and honestly that's a steal, I feel bad only paying that much for such a great course.
Definitely use a trolley as the holes are very up and down, the 15th is called "heartbreak" for a reason. I carried and got round ok, but next time I'll bring a trolley.

Played On 08/24/2020Best value course I've played.
£10 hot deal on a Monday morning.
Course was in great nick with the green staff out looking after it all over the course. Lovely layout, some great views from different holes. The heavy rain recently hadn't made too much of an issue and the course seemed to be lapping it up.
Only downside was when I arrived the pro shop and clubhouse were closed (second time this has happened) couldn't get a card or if I needed to buy drinks etc. I wouldnt of been able to.
Oldham Golf Club
Played On 09/17/2019Be prepared to walk uphill a lot!
Course was in great nick, well maintained. Good pace of play, I must have teed off around the same time as a elderly members, politely and willingly let me play through. Staff all friendly on the phone and in the professional shop.
The 9th was really daunting, despite it's short 281 yardage, it's steep uphill elevation makes it a challenge. The 17th went downhill from the top, to almost where I teed off on the 1st.
Will play here again, reccommend to anyone!

Played On 09/15/2019Best course I've ever played.
A beautiful and well maintained course. Picturesque and challenging, I enjoyed every hole and the various challenges they offered. Every member I passed offered me a cheery wave or hello which is a credit to the club and it's members.
100% will play again and reccomend to anyone that gets the chance to go for a round.
