Disappointed again

I do really like this course and I take no pleasure in giving it a really bad review, we have played it twice this season, once at the beginning of summer in June. At that time it was a complete bog with extremely wet fairways and rough where you could not even find a ball if you missed the fairways. Moving on to this week at the end of the summer I was again truly disappointed, firstly the greens have just been holatined and left with gaping holes with no sand and not been rolled. I understand that this has to happen but apart from that the lack of course maintains left a lot to be desired, the tee boxes were a disgrace, long grass and bare patches all over and the fairways needed a long overdue cut. The rough was overrun with clover and you were lucky if you found your ball should you hit the odd errant shot. All in all it will be a long time until, if ever I will return to this course. Avoid at all cost

A day’s gold ruined

Avoid this course on a Tuesday as it has seniors day competitions which we were behind and 4.15 to finish and we had 4 groups on every hole from hole 3 where we caught up absolutely ruined a nice days golf. The tee boxes are also the worst I have played off all year and when we got in and compiled they were in denial that anything was wrong avoid Tuesdays was what we were told. Unbelievable

First time here

This was our first time playing this course, it was in really good condition a small complaint would be that the fairways and greens could do with a trim , not that they were that bad and more the words of a few members that we spoke to after we finished. It has some really great golf holes on the course and has a established front 9 and the new back 9 which opened in the 90s we were told being very different to the eye but still very good. All in all I would recommend the course and would visit again in the summer months

Disappointed

I have played this course quite a few times over the last 20 years and have never seen the greens in such a bad state, bald patches all over the greens they are the worst greens I’ve played on in many years and if I were you I’d avoid for the next 6 months until they get them sorted out. I was really disappointed to say the least.

Return visit

I have played this course many years back and forgotten how good it really is. Although it was a little soft underfoot and the fairways had no roll at all it was still a very enjoyable course, greens were great for the time of year and the fairways and rough were in good condition and the ground staff were out cutting the rough. I will return in the summer.

Tough test in the wind

The course looks like it is ready to get the machinery out and start cutting the fairways and the greens are a little rough at the moment a bit patchy and bumpy but nothing that a cut and roll would cure. And if I’m honest that was a bit disappointing that I did not see any work going on on a perfect day for the ground staff could have been out there getting on with it. So maybe play it next month if you are thinking of going here

Rain spoiled the course

We have played this course probably 7 times over the last few years and have always found it in excellent condition, unfortunately this time it was like a bog in the rough and the greens were slow and very uneven, I understand that the holatining had been done a few weeks earlier and I understand that has to be done so can’t complain about that. But I have never played it in such a wet boggy condition and I suppose we just have to say avoid it for about 6 weeks until the rough has been cut because you won’t find your ball if you don’t hit the fairway.

Great days golf

I played this course about 20 years ago. I didn’t remember any hole at all . But I will definitely play it again. It was a fantastic golf course with the most undulating greens I have played for years. Some tee boxes need attention but apart from that I would recommend this tough test of golf to anyone

First visit

Fantastic course, best greens I have played all year, it was hard going playing on the hottest day on record but the course made it worth the effort. The course condition was fantastic and there are some fantastic golf holes on the course and at £14 it was a fantastic deal, can’t wait to play it again

Target golf

We had a great days golf with the course keeping our attention on every hole . This is the tightest course I have ever played and you need to be a good iron player especially off the tee . This is target golf at it’s best. If you miss the fairways you will be punished and that’s if you even find your ball . A lot of blind shots and greens you can’t see. And after you find the greens that’s where the hard work starts as the undulating slopes are unbelievable. A real challenge of your golf skills will be tested which I really enjoyed

Great variety of holes

Always a pleasure to come back here the course was in great condition although a couple of tee boxes were a bit rough and the greens were very slow and could do with being cut a bit shorter

Great course

The course has matured since I played about 10 years ago and was in excellent condition with really good greens , the fairways do with cutting and I did not see or hear any work going on but other than that it was a great days golf at a great price

The course is nice and dry . Great selection of holes but unfortunately some of the fairways had not been mowed and the greens we not in great condition today. It’s a shame because I do like the course but I have to be honest it was not at it’s best today

Great course in great condition, the greens were a little ropey and maybe could have done with a cut but besides that worth every penny

Short but tricky

The course was in pretty good condition, the greens were almost back to top notch and given a few weeks probably will be, it’s a short course on paper but tricky on grass, your tee shots must be in the right position. Overall a great course and always worth a visit

Great variety of holes

First time we have played this course, it was in really good condition and the greens were really tricky to read, it is quite hilly and one of us are in his 70s and did feel it .

Hindley hall review

First time I’ve played this course and it won’t be the last, a rehearsal well looked after course with brilliant quick greens in excellent condition albeit a little boggy due to really heavy rain storms for a few days previous, but that was not going to take anything away from a great course, nice club house but unfortunately it was closed due to covid. I will definitely come back
