Former member here and they have done quite a lot of improvements, greens are in tremendous condition. Contemplating joining again next year done think it is good value for money at the moment but worth a round or 2

Nice Course

weather was good but not knowing course, found the ditch that runs across several holes very distracting. Blind shot to a green towards end of course. Difficult to keep ball on green as it drops down ALOT!!! Final par three gets you worrying about clubhouse window.

NOT ALL THAT!

Played with a member recently. They were embarrassed at the state of the greens. At least 3 have been ruined by chemical spillage and will have to be replaced. Overall, an ordinary course, which without the great greens described in other reviews, is not worth visiting. No food in the clubhouse and very tired overall, both course (paths, tees and fairways) and clubhouse. Didn't play all the holes because pace was slow. Looks like they let anybody on, which is understandable only charging a tenner. It costs more to play a municipal - they must realise its "not all that"! Try Worsley or Swinton first at least they have 18 decent greens. The "330 yard" driving range is about 10 yards wide with 10 inch high grass, lol.

former member

I was a member here a few years ago and fell out with the club due to the continued closure of holes. The greens are the best around however the condition of the rest of the course is not worth the expensive membership.
A visitor price that does not warrant due to the condition many better and cheaper in the area.

Nice course and club

Greens in fantastic condition. Some tricky holes due to stream running through the course especially if playing first time. Loved the 17th hole. Everybody really welcoming

Great track

Played it today for the first time this year. What an impressive course this is! So many varied and difficult holes, it just gets better and better as you get round. Greens were really good, very true and running out perfectly. Lots of work done to the course compared to last year good to see.
We will be returning again and again, tempted to join at price!

Solo round - excellent condition

Excellent condition though the greens were very very firm; anything landing on the green wouldn't stay there! Interesting 9th hole and a few dicey tee shots through narrow openings in the trees!

great course 15 mins from Manchester city centre

Course with streams running across many holes and depends upon you tee shot as to whether you lay up or go for green. Plenty of trouble to get in if your not on fairway. Excellent greens even for this poor weather.

Wow!

Not played here for a few years and decided to give it another go following great reports. From start to finish we had a great day. The course is a really good test with some lovely holes, watch out for the 17th blind green. The condition was by far the best we had ever seen it and the greens were true and very fast, the best we have played on all season. It was a pleasure to play.
