We played Whalley in a charity event in early September. The course was in great conditions and the greens were fast but true. The hospitality and food/drink was excellent! Thank you to the whole team! Looking forward to playing there again soon.

Don't like 9 holers - think again
If you don't like 9 hole layouts, try Whalley and think again. Its a great course with very different tee options for your 2nd round. Well worth a go.(Round played: Aug 2017 - Score: 100 Handicap: 21.8)

Reviewed Oct 10 2016
Quite a stiff walk but well worth playing as the course is well maintained and a good test for all standards. There's plenty of variety in the layout with a nice mix of short, tight par 4's and a couple of tough long holes. The green side bunkering is often big, bold and visually impressive. The finishing hole is a lovely long par-3 over water.

Played in recent open competition, good value. Greens had been recently worked on, tined and top dressed so not the easiest to put on. Fairly hard course to score on from white tees, need to be long and straight, many holes tree lined. Course in generally good condition. Friendly welcome in pro shop and clubhouse.

Not played this course since I was a junior member some 35 years ago. Friendly welcome by all, good breakfast. Course in reasonable condition. Fairways with lots of grass on them, greens a little inconsistant but generally good. Quite a tight 9 hole layout, nice finishing three holes with a tough par 3 9th/18th over water. Glad I returned after all these years.
