The Best Golf Courses in Bamford, Greater Manchester, United Kingdom (2025)

Played MGC this morning for the first time. Conditions were great, save a few spots on a few fairways which the grounds crew are doing an outstanding job of repairing. The views are beautiful and the property overall is just enjoyable to be on. Add to it that the weather cooperated and was a fairly sunny day. Next time I’m back in Manchester I’ll absolutely try to get another round in.

Golfers heaven Have played here the day after immense heavy rain in the north west of England, I was surprised at good of condition the course was in Fantastic setup with chipping area, driving range and large putting area. Nets are available for another means of a warm up prior to your round. The staff are superb in particular Julie, the manger who had no trouble in moving my tee time earlier Unfortunately I never had time to stop for food but I will do on my next visit.

Wow loved this course, the greens are ‘spot on’ really well maintained and a good looking course with super views. Large open fairways and firm green. A few issues on the back nine battling leather jackets and some GUR but to be expected given the wet weather. Really enjoyed the course, it has a ‘classy feel’ and a must if you are in the area. Finished off with a great breakfast in the club house. I looked at the practice area with a good driving range with Trackman but the green is still under development. I paid £60 using GolfNow great value and the best course I have played in Manchester so far, thanks

the below from last year still stands, but today I'd add: Julie in organising event (for x40), and Evonne in hospitality, both worthy of additional plaudits 👏. Awesome 👌 day for R.I.G.S. 2023; The course was in great condition, awesome fairways and very tricky greens. A very nice clubhouse. The only v.slight let down was most bunkers bereft of sand.

We booked the Stamford Golf Club as a venue to hold a family members wake. From first enquiry right through to the day, I was reassured and details were clarified by staff. Nothing was too much trouble. The hot & cold buffet we orderd was so tasty and set out beautifully. We had some guests who had dietary requirements and it was no trouble to the staff to ensure their food was top notch standard and carefully labelled to avoid contamination. Excellent value for money. The venue itself is beautiful, we were able to utilise the patio area outside, with fabulous views of the local hillsides and fairway. The staff were so kind and accomodating, our afternoon ended up extending into early evening. Lovely bar area with a well stocked bar and friendly staff. I won't hesitate to use them again for any further functions. Thank you to all the staff who helped make our sad day, that little bit brighter.

Absolutely delicious Sunday dinner 🍽 😋 Couldn't fault anything. Very hearty portion of meat(s) and help yourself to the rest. Spotlessly clean tables set out nicely with crisp white table linen. Reasonably priced food too 😋

Awesome golf course. The electric trolleys are well worth hiring cause there’s a lot of hills

Lovely Sunday lunch . Friendly bar staff and waitresses.

Went hear for a meal the food was great the service very good the only thing I found issues with was parking there was no disabled parking and the parking bays so tight one could not open the car door without hitting another vehicle

Course generally in good condition with very good greens. A very hard walk on the back 9 with elevation changes and large distances between some greens and tees. Quite dangerous in places hitting over greens and also greens near tees. Friendly clubhouse with good price food and drinks.

Great course with well kept greens. Friendly atmosphere among patrons and superb food in the clubhouse.

This is an amazing golf club, great staff including the pro shop, catering, 19th hole and management. Not only is the golf great, we also had the pleasure of using the function room for a recent party, everybody at the club was superb and made the day so special.

Amazing day from start to finish at my Sisters wedding. Drinks reasonably priced for a golf club venue. The ceremony, breakfast and evening reception were just perfect. The staff were really welcoming, plenty of bar staff working the bar so never waited to be served. The food was beautiful as were the surroundings as was the standard of the ceremony/function room and the way it was dressed. Absolutely wonderful venue, team of catering and bar staff and the view from the outdoor seating area on the large balcony was the cherry on the cake.

Superb golf course, we had a great day, excellent staff, and fantastic food. We shall visit again. Thank you

Excellent day on Sunday playing the Fairfield trophy men’s open. The course looked amazing the set up looked very professional. Mel on the first tee seen over 165 players tee off. The atmosphere was superb in the clubhouse and fantastic prizes to be won for £15 entrance fee and a chance to win a car. I expect it to be full again next year. Thanks Fairfield you did yourself proud

I played here twice in June 2024, once in pouring rain at the beginning of the round. The course was immaculate with very well kept fairways. The greens were smooth, fast, and challenging. The rough was closely cut and there wasn't any great amount of debris under or around the trees. There was no waterlogging despite the English rain. The course isn't hugely difficult for a high handicap player but it does require some course management and a deal of care on the greens, some of which don't appear to have any level surfaces. The clubhouse is modern and comfortable. The bar staff are very friendly and helpful. I enjoy this course and I have heard good things from my brother who is a member for six years. Green fees were very reasonable too.

Fantastic course with some of the best greens in the Manchester area. Very friendly staff and members. It is well worth a visit.

Lovely course well laid out and well presented. The course is highly maintained and frequently updated in regards to pin locations. There is fair pricing for a golf round, and the golf professional is polite and friendly with good knowledge to help with your golf swing and course advice.

I attend our weekly business meeting here every Thursday with BNI. Great facilities and the catering team serve up a fantastic buffet breakfast.

Played the seniors open and the course was in good condition particularly the greens. Fairly generous off the tees but with a few hazards dotted about. Everyone very friendly in pro shop and clubhouse. Well worth a visit.

I recently held my 80th birthday celebration for approximately 50 guests in the Function Room at the club. I want to compliment the club caterers "Chip and Sip" and the club bar staff on their service and friendliness in providing a magnificent Hot and Cold buffet, the food was excellent and plentiful, all fresh and prepared and cooked in the Club house kitchen. Everyone was impressed with the quality of the food and the bar service. I would thoroughly recommend Pike Fold Golf Club as an ideal venue for any kind of social function.

Not played pike fold before but I was pleasantly surprised and really impressed with the course - good design and routing of holes. It was in really good condition and the greens were superb - excellent pace and roll to them. Was quite busy for a Monday morning but pace of play was fine. Enjoyed a pint afterwards, and staff and members that we met were friendly. Would definitely go back and play there again.

Had a great day's golf, the course is in excellent condition and the staff really helpfulness friendly. Will definitely pay another visit soon.

Visited for the first time (July 2024) Played in Lancashire ladies 4 player team event. None of us had played there before and were all very impressed We Were blessed with great weather & the course was in excellent condition. Fabulous clubhouse, where we enjoyed some very nice sandwiches before hitting the course, then managed to grab some bargains in the pro shop before heading home. Definitely recommend

Good course, good bar service, whats not to like 👍

Very good club house Well maintained course

Excellent place for any occasion.beautiful views of bamford and norden

We visited the Australian Crazy Golf and had a great time with our 2 boys it took us around a hour to complete the course could have took longer but felt we were being rushed along by a man and 2 very young children who were trying to finish as fast as they could 😕 we loved all the Australian landmarks and would definitely recommend and would visit again 💯

I went to the mini golf with my two children aged 6 and 4. They loved it! Amazing course, the girls didn't get bored and played until the end still wanting more! Kept entertained by all of the props around the course and the Australian facts. Definitely returning customers.

Great practise facility with a real family feel to it. The 9 hole Par 3 course is really well maintained, with very unforgiving rough all year round. There is also a really well kept putting and chipping green. Plus the trackman system helps you keep upto speed with how you are coming along.

Visited the newly opened Australia themed Crazy Golf, it was absolutely fabulous. I cannot rave enough about this! The courses are amazing, beautifully built, with such detail and the courses are challenging and really good fun. The finish is top notch and so much fun. There are all the major landmarks, animals and novelties of Australia. A definite must. We played a family of 4, it took 1hr 10mins to get around, with only a small wait at one of the holes, but this gave us chance to lap up the scenery.

Great location and venue The function room was excellent!! With great service from the staff! Unfortunately, I attended a beravement.

Golf course just getting back to its playing best after all the rain. Greens staff doing a great job, the course can now only get better. Good test of golf. Week done

Fantastic place to have a birthday party great function room

We recently had our wedding at Denton Golf Club, and it was absolutely amazing from start to finish. The staff ensured everything went smoothly and exactly to plan, making our special day stress-free and enjoyable. The room was beautifully presented and created the perfect atmosphere for our celebration. Also, the food was exceptional. We couldn’t have asked for a better venue or team to make our day so memorable. We highly recommend Denton Golf Club!

Had a great day at Heaton Moor Golf Club, Weather was kind, greens ran true. exactly what you look for in a golf club. Friendly members, good bar & the pro was helpful.

Society day, really enjoyed it, nice course. Captain of club, what a nice chap seen us all tee off, give us some insights of the course and was still there to see us all in + prior to our meals before seeing us off home, thanking us for going to his club on the day, and saying he'd wishing we'd go back again in the future. Thank you very much 👌

Went to a private party. It was a great venue and a beautiful location. The staff were exceptional, the buffet was good and the venue was very accommodating regarding the room decocorations.
