Played during heatwave for first time in 20years. Course was bone dry which made it interesting with bounces and runs on ball but was still in good condition and greens were great. Will never go back though due to the terrible treatment received in the clubhouse. We were all looked up and down by the members and then challenged over minor clothing issues. I had black ankle socks on and received a lecture from a plums in mouth member over the need for white socks (does not say this on the website), he said I should not have been allowed on the course! My father and brother got a sarcastic clap for having acceptable gear on. The atmosphere was unwelcoming and it is clear that these members do not want outsiders in their club. The sooner these sad old fools die off from the game the better, no wonder kids are not interested in golf with these people making the rules. Huyton management wake up and move with the times as when the codgers die out there will be no one left at your club.

We played the course after a few weeks of heavy rain and unfortunately the course showed it. Extremely heavy ground. Fairway and approach shots to the green were “plugging” or leaving hige pitch marks. Greens looked worse for wear.

Course - superb. Greens are un-real and frighteningly quick.
Members - We had such a poor experience due to two groups of inconsiderate and rude members who did not understand the etiquette of golf. Hitting up to green whilst we were putting. Accusations of slow play despite a 1 hr 50 minute front 9. Threats to report the members we were with for slow play.
Such disregard for visitors and it blighted what was a great golf day. We were made to feel so unwelcome and as though members take priority despite the fact that we were not playing slowly and were all single handicap golfers.
Needless to say I reported them to their pro and club secretary after our game.
Hopefully these are a minority because the course itself is outstanding.

Not the best
Never really been a fan of this course but gave it another try. Its not that the course is in bad condition, it's more the layout. Quite a few blind tee shots which I am not a fan ofReviewer Rating

Played early March 2019 & late March 2019Plenty of upkeep work going on.
Temporary green in place on 1 hole.
Greens we're not very good.
Had to take ball off the fairway onto first cut (local rule) to protect fairways.
For that reason ? won't be playing winter golf at Huyton & Prescot again ?

Not up to the standard I was expecting. Greens not in good condition. A challenging course with many blind tee shots . Have to think your way round this course . Hate to mention it again but the greens really did let it down .
