Lovely course in excellent condition
This is the first time playing this great course. The tees, the fairways and the greens were all in excellent condition. The first cut of rough is fair and the second cut of rough is tough to get out of but entirely fair as you shouldn't be that far off the fairway. There are a lot of well placed bunkers, if you can't carry them you can go round them and the bunkers were in good condition. The facilities are very good and the professional was really helpful with a good sense of humour. The bar is good and the staff friendly. One of the best clubs I have played.Reviewer Rating

Childwall is a testing 6470 yard parkland course, demanding accuracy from the tee.
Childwall presents a very tough test of Golf and can match any course in the area. The course is not undulating and is very pleasant to walk. However, some holes do rise and this can affect the run of the ball.
The course design was based on the recommendation of James Braid when the Club moved to its present excellent site at Gateacre in 1938.
Over the years it has undergone some alterations, mainly to increase the length.
In addition to the course the Clubhouse is extremely attractive, serves excellent food and has a friendly, hospitable atmosphere.
Childwall ranks with the very best of courses in this area of very fine Golf Clubs.

This is decent without being amazing. Nice parkland course with some challenging holes. Also has a couple of ?space fillers? which could be better. Members for the most part are nice but one or two on the occasions I have played hark back to the snootier side of golf memberships. Play with a mate whose a member and do enjoy it.
