Best inland course of North West?

Sandiway is an outstanding course. Every hole is different and very memorable. When you play for the first time, its the sort of place you’ll be able to recall every hole afterwards. It is a massive property - seems to meander through dense woodland for miles. By the time you are at the 14th Tee, you’re a long way from civilisation! The contour, shaping and elevation changes are stunning. Course is always immaculately presented. It drains like a links course and is hardly ever shut. In my opinion, this is the pick of the lot for inland North West courses.

Stood on the first tee and looking out thought this is a great course. And it did not disappoint. Everything about the course is in fantastic condition: fairways, bunker and greens. One of the best courses in the north west that I have played. Up there with Royal Birkdale and Royal Lytham and St. Annes. Will definitely play this course again.

Played in a Senior Open earlier this week and in great weather the course was in excellent condition. Off the yellow tees, if you drove reasonably well, a number of the holes can be reached with a short iron so not particularly demanding. Overall a golfing experience not to be missed. Food was very good too. Not sure if it is worth the rack rate of £65 though. The Open will be £26 in 2013, very much at the top end of the scale.

Sandiway is a superb inland course, a mixture of heath and parkland, and eing largely based on sand, is in terrific condition all year round. Recent work on the course has thinned the trees so with extra light and wind, the greens are magnificent. Despite the 5th hole being SI 1, the tougher holes are on the back 9 - the 5th is only the 5th or 6th hardest hole which is a bit odd. An excellent test of golf and well worth a visit or two...or three.

Superbly kept course, staff extremely helpful and friendly. Course undulates quite frequently and provides a good challenge but holes 10-14 suffer from midges due to the nearby lake.

Class. Best Parkland Course In NW

Bit of rain at home so took my soft spikes rather than summer shoes. Needn't have bothered. Course was dry and playing really well. Greens were exceptional but my putting was shocking, I think I was scared of the pace this early in the year. Had to take my medicine a few times following an errant tee shot or two but that is the mark of a good course. No mistakes go unpunished but not unfairly it should be said. Great course and for me best parkland course in the North West. Great mix of par 3's, and 4's and the shorter par 5 looks gettable in two on paper but it is uphill and tight so it plays above it's yardage. Challenging but fair with good shots rewarded and bad shots penalised. £25 as a members guest also represents great value. Food was really nice too.

ecovering From Hard Summer

A nice course but I am not sure it should be in the Top 100 (100th I think on Golf Monthly).
Still recovering from summer so a lot of bare and uneven patches and unsure on some holes where the fairway started / finished. Hard to get a decent strike when the ball is sat on a sandy and damp bare patch. I have played here before and it has not been in such mediocre condition in parts. Greens were excellent though to be fair.
In terms of layout there are two holes that let the course down. The 6th and 13th that were playing 135 and 115 today and seem to be fillers. If they could improve these two holes I believe the course would be a lot better for it. Some really good holes though and the first is as good as an opening hole as you will find in the area. I will definitely be back though to see if some water over the autumn rejuvenates the fairways. Only other thing lacking was that we arrived at 9 for a 10 tee off and had to go to a local takeaway cafe for a sandwich and coffee as the clubhouse wasn't open.

Played the course yesterday and was thoroughly impressed. The fairways were beautifully presented and the greens excellent. The team have done a lot of work on the surrounding trees and improved on what was already a great course.

Lovely Course

Never disappoints. Lovely fairways and a real challenge. Couple of boring par 3s that I ironically struggle the most on as they are between Gap / PW but otherwise excellent.
