After a full days rain the day before, the course was in outstanding condition.Easily the best greens I've played on this year.
It's a great layout, with superb views of the Abbey & 'must play' if you're in the area.

Reviewed Jan 1 2019 by Sman - rated 4 out of 5 Vale Royal is a lovely track, and will get better with time given it still needs time to establish and mature. Stands up well to rain with good drainage. It doesn’t come close to the quality on offer at nearby Sandiway or Delamere; but those 2 aside, it’s as good as any other course in Cheshire

Booked a great deal via Teeofftimes for a 4 Ball to play this beautiful parkland Course. Impressive entrance via Vale Royal Drive to the imposing Stately Home. The parkland course has plenty of challenges with well placed bunkers and trees. Greens and fairways were in great condition - can?t believe there weren?t more people playing it on a Saturday afternoon so no hold ups.Course (layout/challlenge)

Reviewed Nov 15 2017 by Pj F - rated 5 out of 5 How anybody can have any complaints about this course at this time of year is beyond me. I played this course 2 days ago after 2 solid nights of torrential rain, I was genuinely expecting the course to be closed like most of the other courses in the area, but instead they were letting buggies out. The 1st and 9th holes are admittedly bordering on waterlogged but the rest of the course is perfectly fine. The layout of the course is great, some lovely holes. The greens for the time of year are pretty quick and true.
Its silly to complain about 2 wet holes in november after 2 solid days of consistently heavy rain. My only ‘complaint’ about this course is maybe the greens could have been designed with a tad more break and undulation. Overall a brilliant course
