What the club says: Upton by Chester Golf Club is an 18 hole traditional parkland course noted for its mature tree lined fairways and USGA standard greens.

Short but tricky parkland course.
May be biased as this is my home course but this short but tricky layout is anything but easy. Since new green staff have come in the course is in great condition, though does struggle with drainage in the winter. That being said, work is ongoing to improve this. The club pro is excellent in terms of stock and teaching. Clubhouse is good but tired in some areas but new catering teams leave me optimistic. Great parkland course that's exceptionally affordable.Reviewer Rating

Nice course worth playing
First time playing this course, friendly welcome in clubhouse and pro shop. Decent practice facilities. Course in decent condition, greens nice if a little slow. Some hard par 3s especially 15th and 17th. Worth playing a round here for sure.Reviewer Rating

very tight indeed
played here after a gap of many years, I had forgotten just how tight it is. Drives require great accuracy, you pay heavily for a slice or a pull. Pin positions rather peculiar, some just six feet from the edge. Very irritated to be given a ticking off by a groundsman for playing off white tees, there was nothing to say don’t and, outside the top courses, most places don’t mind which tees you use, including my own very highly rated club. No way to treat a visitor. Members, pro and bar staff very pleasant.Reviewer Rating

Course very short and crammed. All we heard all day was “foreeeeeee”
Barman/Manager although only doing his job with current conditions, very rude and had no understanding of who had just walked off the course or not from our group. ( had not told the golfer “twice already” to be a metre apart, as he’d just walked off)

Played here 14/2/19.
Course is in excellent condition. Playing like the middle of summer with plenty of run on fairways and greens. Greens were excellent for time of year( very good for anytime of the year).
I thought it would be a traditional course where you go up one fairway and then come down the next which is the mirror image but it’s not all that. Occasional holes do that but there is plenty of variety. Not a long course with 5 par3’s but don’t be fooled that it’s easy. Greens are challenging to read (for me anyway).
Would definitely play here again.

Wouldn't return
Course in very poor condition, greens were abysmal, too many par 3's and the layout was borderline dangerous having to cross fairways to the next tees. Pace of play wasn't great, and they charge nearly £30 for the privilege. I'd rather play my local muni any day!(Round played: Sep 2018 - Score: 89 Handicap: 11.8)

Top Greens
It's been a while since I've played Upton but there's been a massive improvement and no doubt investment lately. The greens were especially good and perhaps the worst element of this course, the bunkers, has also been addressed as there was plenty of sand in them.(Round played: May 2018 - Score: 88 Handicap: 14.7)
