What the club says: Situated in the old Walton Hall estate, this is generally regarded as the premier municipal course in the north of England. It began with nine holes in 1971, was extended and redesigned six years later by Dave Thomas and Peter Allis, and is now a championship standard 6800 yards with 3 par 3's over 200 yards long.
In a picturesque parkland setting, with fine views from the 13th tee, it boasts many mature trees and a lot of water which comes in to play on seven of the holes. The course was featured in the BBC Golf Magazine article "The Best Courses in Britain for under aTenner a Round", Summer 1994.

Let Down By Staff
Visited there last Saturday, with 11 other society members. Course was in really good condition but the day was ruined by the staff in the pro shop. They had confirmed that we would have two buggies, but when we arrived they had no record of it on their system. That left us with 8 and the other 4 had to go back home.Reviewer Rating

For me it was a wonderful course and reasonably priced . The Fairways were fantastically challenging. It was also very therapeutic in way of pushing my golf trolley upthose wonderful picturesque slopes .

Needs Attention
Play most Sundays & yes we have seen the price go up to £25, & I thought we would see improvements on the whole course given it's now gone up to £25, now I know we have had rain etc but other than the greens, I thought or we all thought the course wasnt great at all. The fairways were terrible & you cudnt tell the fairways to the first cut to be honest...so £25 doesn't justify playing when the course looks shabby, don't normally complain but this has to be said.Reviewer Rating

Few patchy greens need sorting, few tee off areas need attention & noticed bunker mid way on10th hole needs attention or doing away with. I get it’s a municipal but greens need to have attention especially in this weather.
Also I do think weekend prices have gone up to much & you could lose people based on that .... my opinion

Greens a bit tired
Good course and decent price. Can get busy and booking times can mean nowt if there is a queue in front at the first tee. It's interesting, testing and the holes are well thought out. Lots of dog legs and greens are running fast and looking a little threadbare for early June.Reviewer Rating
