Despite the heavy rain today the course held up very well. The pin positions were particularly challenging with only one flag any where near the middle of the green. Would recommend the course and will play again soon.Reviewer Rating

Nice course worth playing but....
First time playing Great Lever & Farnworth GC. Friendly welcome in pro shop. Practice ground, net and putting ground near clubhouse. Course in good condition, a few bare patches around but generally lush. Greens good, nice roll, some quite tricky to read. Nice easy walk around as not the longest and no difficult hills to negotiate. Have to plot your way around a bit as not always driver off the tee. The but is local kids playing on the course, wrecking several bunkers and shouting out on your backswing. Not surprised that rakes are to be taken with you at beginning of the round. This should certainly not detract you from playing this nice course and I would play it again.Reviewer Rating

We played with a junior member. At the time the course had lots of holes closed and we're using fairway mats (not provided)Members on the course were not helpful they were rather judgemental to guests. One par 3 had a large hole/trench dug out on the left hand side of the green. This should have been closed.

Poor Greens
The rough is thick and you will struggle to find ball if you are off fairways which are very good. The greens are not so good and I'm unsure if they have had a problem or two. Remember to update any GPS watch you have as its altered over the past few years and dont forget you have to cross a very busy main road twice.Difficult to say if I'd recommend, depens where you currently play and the standard you expect.
