We had our exchange day today where members of Sale swap with Romiley members and play each other's courses. What a pleasure it has been! You could not get greater contrast between 2 parkland courses. Ours is flat and testing Romiley is undulating and testing. ROMILEY is in excellent condition and very enjoyable to play. It is a lovely driving course with lots of banked fairways and dog legs. From pro shop to half way house plus the clubhouse staff we received a very friendly reception. Myself and playing partners thoroughly enjoyed this course and would highly recommend it

Loved the course. As you can see, it was sunny on the first tee and there is snow in the hills in the background, in April!! It snowed on me coming in on the 18th. Lovely designed course and a good challenge for any golfer. Nice and spongey fairways. Greens could be better, but they will improve with the sunshine. I get the impression it is a wet course in the winter. Good value though and will definitely go back there. I managed to get round in 3 hrs too and the course was busy.

Dropped in for a late evening round when it was quiet. Fantastic course, well maintained, some tricky holes and enough variation in terrain too make it interesting without having to climb up many hills. Friendly welcome as well and a bargain if you come around 5pm as the rates drop. We'll definitely come again.

This is one of my favourite golf course in Cheshire, well maintained, some really tricky/challenging holes. Although the weather conditions have been poor recently yet the course was in brilliant condition. Also staff are extremely friendly and welcoming.

Just arrived back after a 4 night stay. I can only describe the experience from the minute I arrived until the minute I left as Wonderful, Magical, Cosy, Home from Home, All Team Members ho above and beyond, so friendly and absolutely nothing is too much trouble. I would like to thank 3 people in particular, and this is in no way a reflection as these were the main people who assisted me during my 4 night stay. Tracy, Debbie, Lisa. I would love to put each of them forward for a staff award if you have one. I can't wait to stay again in 5 weeks as I never feel like I am away from home when staying at Morley Hayes it really is home from home. Thanks again ☺️

A fantastic 18 hole golf course, lovely scenery and Deer watching as you play which is fantastic. It's just a shame that they don't reduce the green fees over the winter months like most courses as it gets very boggy.

The champagne breakfast was 10 out of 10. The food was superb, the staff friendly and attentive, without being intrusive. There was plenty to choose from on the menu, something for everyone, and if you had any dietary requirements, those were catered for too. The atmosphere of the Dovecote was relaxed and unrushed. Thank you for a lovely and enjoyable meal.

Went for afternoon tea could not fault it best one we have ever had. Food was very tasty and well presented, professional friendly staff. Great venue Dovecote restaurant will definitely be going again.

A great test of golf with some of the best greens in the area, coupled with spectacular views and a fantastic clubhouse, Mellor is well worth a visit

Rating: 5 / 5

Stunning golf club with a fantastic variety of holes to keep your interest up right up to the 19th. There are some signature holes here with magnificent views. The greens were awesome, consistent and fast. Can’t ask for more. Will definitely revisit.

Our recent society trip here. Feed back from all our 26 players was very good. Some lovely views as you make your way up towards the 12th, greens were massive and extremely quick. Deceiving too. Looks to break one way goes the opposite. Shop Pro was very easy to deal with , even gave us all a course booklet, the hospitality staff were good too. I'd highly recommend this place to people and certainly go back especially for the cost. Very very reasonable. We've paid a lot more for worse courses over the years.

What a great course, very well kept and maintained, hole layout is great. Would highly recommend getting a kart. Booked back on, for what won't be the last time. Highly impressed.

What an absolute gem of a golf course! But my word it’s hilly so get a buggy!! £40 for manicured greens and well presented fairways, different challenges and views over Hope Valley. Just brilliant, will be back (with a buggy again)

Loved our visit to Sickleholme. Everyone was very friendly and welcoming. The course was in great condition, greens quick and pure. Can't wait to come back!

What an absolute pleasure to play a course which I must have driven past many times and never really knew it was here! Excellent condition out on the course. Made very welcome in the Pro Shop and Clubhouse bar. There are some little touches which make the experience so memorable. The outside seating alongside the practice green is no doubt well used and made for a welcome post round refreshment seat! Stunning views on many holes, the challenge on each is different taking the experience up a further notch! Thank you for supporting the On Course Foundation with their fund raising!

A lovely little nine hole course with each hole providing its own challenges. Some lovely views as well. Reasonable cost to play and you can do nine or eighteen holes. It is quite hilly but that's part of the charm,just come prepared.

Rating: 5 / 5

A lovely, pretty course. Obviously gorgeous in today's sunshine. Quite testing, but had a thoroughly great morning. Nice, friendly bar staff. Can't wait to get back at some point very soon. A little problematic with holes crossing over each other, but with no time constraint, wasn't a problem for our 4-ball

I have just joined this club and I was nervous as I am quite a new player but everyone has been friendly and welcoming, I feel informed on the course and events that are happening. The course is great and I am looking forward to playing more and in the Summer getting my handicap. I have eaten here in the past and it has been delicious, staff are friendly too.

Great tight 9 holer worth the trip will play again

Very enjoyable course with plenty of interest. We held our Captain's Day here and the staff were funny, efficient and attentive. Top class 27 holes of golf and a decent price too.

Rating: 5 / 5

Such a beautiful 18 hole course, perfect for all golfers, variety of pars, some more challenging than others. I’m still in my first year so call myself a beginner and I like the different challenges of this course. Staff are friendly, the club room is clean and has a good selection of drinks and food. Buggies available and the pro shop is always well stocked. I had my very first lesson with Sam the Pro here and I am glad I chose here as it is bigger than my home course.

You will not be disappointed with the scenery at this place. Good course but a tough if playing in to the wind.

I'm not a golfer but I have a friend who is a member of NMGC. My connection is walking down the 3rd fairway on a walk with my dog... there's a bell to ring so if anyone is on the tee they'll wait until you're past potential points of dodging a hooked tee shot...The views are quite spectacular especially the 3rd fairway looking towards Kinder Scout. From the people I've spoken to they are very happy with their golf club & club house...

Such a great day with members from our club in Nottinghamshire. The staff were very friendly & attentive & the course was lovely with great views over Buxton & the surrounding area. The food was excellent home made steak pie & crumble to follow 😋 Hopefully the score will improve next time, we will be back 🏌️‍♂️🏌️‍♀️⛳️

A very warm welcome from the pro shop, really friendly. Helpful information given. Unfortunately 2 holes are currently closed due to major roadworks, beyond the clubs control. The course was in fairly good condition considering we had several quite heavy snow showers through the afternoon. Good value for a round of golf on an interesting but not long course. Well worth a visit.

Rating: 4 / 5

Great course, always in good condition. The green fees are so reasonable!! The course provides a great variety for all golfers even having a links feel to 4 of the holes. I would definitely recommend a visit!!

Such a lovely place and great people working there. We did the golf simulation in the studio and had so much fun! The gent behind the till was such a legend too!

Rating: 4 / 5

Playing of mats has helped preserve good fairways. Although because it’s not flat course this can also be tricky with borrowed mats. Greens were decent but not overly quick and a bit long - it is December after all so can be forgiven. Good layout and picturesque par 3s. Would love to play in its peak during the summer

Rating: 5 / 5

One of the best courses in England and despite it's relatively short length it still offers a good test of golf. The course has always been in impeccable shape whenever we've played there.The staff in the clubhouse are welcoming with a nice selection of food and ales. The views both from the clubhouse and on the course are superb. Overall a brilliant day of golf can be had at Cavendish, however the weather can be brutal at times, so don't forget your waterproofs!

Fantastic course played in heavy winds was challenging but enjoyable will return and play when less windy someday some

Absolute class. My friend and I played on a glorious Sunday afternoon in October, and it was perfect. I knew about the reputation of this course as ‘the inspiration for Augusta’ and it does deliver. Dr Alastair McKenzie knew what he was doing. Amazing views from all corners of the course and despite the overall elevation, because the holes are carefully crafted into the tables of the terrain, it is a surprisingly good walk. The staff (shoutout to assistant pro, Liam) are super helpful and make you feel very welcome. Great hospitality in the clubhouse and you can enjoy watching players come in with a cold pint on the terrace. Cannot recommend highly enough and can’t wait to return next year. Proper golf course!

Our Society recently had a golf day at Chapel en le frith Golf Club and were overwhelmed with how great an experience it was. Breakfast, Diner and Tea all included in the price, coffee on arrival, one 18 hole round and a 9 hole round. The club captain came in to greet us even though he was injured and gave us some good information on the course. The course is amazingly maintained, Tee Boxes, Fairways and greens are all really well maintained and look great, the views from the course are breath-taking. Fairways are very open however the course is very challenging and will test your golf skill. Buggy hire is exceptionally reasonably priced. the food was prepared really well and tasted great. the whole group couldn't find a single complaint throughout the whole course. 10/10 - Hope to see you all again soon !

I've been a member here for a number of years now. I may be a little bit biased, but I think that it is a wonderful course. I would recommend this course to anyone visiting the High Peak ,and fancying a knock.

Great golf club. Well presented and tidy golf course. Some very challenging holes. There are some great views across Greater Manchester as you walk down the first hole. There are some great deals to be made with the pro shop for tee off times.

Rating: 5 / 5

Lovely course that’s seen a lot of sensible investment recently. Testing on some holes, but forgiving on others. Well stocked pro shop, and delicious beer in the clubhouse! 🤤 👍🏼🍺 - good on a summers evening for definite!

Rating: 5 / 5

Always love playing here. The course has improved massively, if you’ve not played there in a while it’s worth another visit. Also Madri on tap at the bar helps you forget about the odd bad round 😂
