Stunning Breightmet

This course deserves to be played it a great layout with plenty of interesting & challenging holes. ..it's in top condition at the moment. ..greens are true & without a blemish on any of them. ..fairways are well defined. ..credit to the greens staff & a hart felt welcome in the pro shop. ..could do with a bit more signage coming off the 8th to fine the 9th tee & the same coming off the 10th to find the 11th tee...the use of a few buggies would have helped my playing partners but I'm sure they will feel the benefits in a couple of days time lol.

This was the best condition of course we have played so far this year. Money and work has been done and the benefits are beginning to show through. Well done to al who have helped this course come on so much in the last 12 month.

Probably played the course at it's worst time. It was extremely wet and very boggy in places. A course I would imagine in the summer, that tests golfers of all levels.
Hope to return when the weather picks up

Played this course on a Monday, very quiet, at times felt had the course to myself. Friendly welcome in pro shop. Clubhouse was closed though (think it is just Mondays). Course in good condition given recent wet weather. Fairways lush. Greens had been spiked but still played true. A few gentle climbs on the course but not a hard walk around. Some nice holes with elevated tees. Great value for money for sure, worth a round if not played there before.

I don't really have much positive to say about the course. The greens are so fast and slopey it's like playing crazy golf. Combined ridiculous pin placements and the condition of the course, all in all it wasn't a pleasant 5 hours, even if it was free! The course just seems to be the same repetitive holes back and forward on hills with the exception of some holes where you take your life in your own hands as fairways cross.
Finally, least said about the catering the better. Let's just say the art of making rice pudding is certainly lost on those in the kitchen.

Really friendly course but not a parkland as suggested in some descriptions. Back nine opens up but is a little bit backwards and forwards. Some nice holes though and they make everybody feel very welcome. Greens too concrete like for my liking and fairways way too close together especially on the first few holes.
