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

Great value for money. £30 a round, £25 for a buggy. Course in really good nick. Greens excellent. Staff very friendly. My first time but i ll be back soon!

Regular visit for our golf society. Always a warm welcome and excellent food and service provided by catering staff. Course in very good condition for this time of year despite some very wet weather.

Firstly super friendly staff, last minute booking at the shop and straight out on the course. Pleasant course, open lush fairways, greens are firm and run fairly true. Clearly the greens had been treated and the rain has affected the bunkers they need some work. £20 for nine holes I enjoyed getting out, thank you

Played as a visitor after another rainy period. Got there about an hour early for a bit of a practice, pro and members very friendly. Managed to tee off a bit early as the course wasn’t very busy. Course was in excellent condition, no temp greens and the course was pretty dry, greens were good and all bunkers raked. Had shower after as meeting friends and showers weren’t great but minor point really. Enjoyable round and would play again.

Staff are lovey! Is a well known place, so many people there having fun. Will definitely go back and definitely recommend

Brilliant facilities, friendly welcoming staff , excellent food and drink. The golf range has a number of activities on the screens that are fun for all. Can work on short or long game. The big factor is the staff on both the range and the store they are simply amazing and very friendly.

This is a very lovely outdoor space for families and friends. It's quite relaxing and fun to play the golf course. I would gladly recommend this place for team building activities and simple hangouts. There's free parking and you can get some snacks from the shop inside.

Wasn't busy when we went, cost £28 for a family of 4 ticket. We had a good 45 minute or so on the course. Holes are plenty exciting, there's dinosaurs and music playing on some holes. It's easy to navigate. We bumped into a gran and a grandad who were finding the lack of direction signs difficult. Follow the holes you'll be fine. There's a vending machine in the middle which was out of order and it's right next to the M60 so it's pretty loud. The course is very exposed so if it looks like rain make sure you take a coat! Loads of parking. Bit if a faff to get to from either the motorway or the B&Q side.

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

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.

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.

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.

We hire the functional room for our child's baptism even though we are not members. Everybody had a great day, the buffet was excellent, the staff were fantastic and very friendly. But the best thing was the backdrop and the views of the golf course. All the kids had fun and we all had a great day

One of my favourite golf clubs ever purely because of the people. Staff are amazing! The course is unreal so different and so challenging

Great place for our wedding venue, food was amazing, views were beautiful, wonderful day had by all. Thankyou Colin and team x

Really nice course and considering the weather and time of year can’t complain. Would love to return when all greens are back in play, there were 3/4 temps, we were not advised at time of paying but also not surprised due to time of year but would have been nice to be made aware. Clubhouse was closed so couldn’t get a drink or anything to eat after. Which was a shame as I always like to put some money over the bar after a game of golf.

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

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.

Very happy to give the club a 5 star review. Just had a family birthday party and the service from Carolyn and her team was first class. Carolyn was very responsive to all my questions and nothing was too much trouble. On the day her team were warm and friendly, all the party guests had a lovely time and enjoyed the hot buffet food. Highly recommend!

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

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.

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

Very lovely food 😋 we at rotary burns night haggis and Scottish roast beef and vegetables 😋 very pleasant staff

Lovely Sunday lunch . Friendly bar staff and waitresses.

Fantastic course and great club house Fantastic bar staff friendly members already great place to play

Great friendly club excellent course and club house big function room to hire for weddings and other celebrations set in beautiful surroundings with great views

A great course with lots of variety through the 18 holes. One of the best courses in Tameside. Par 3 holes all have a familiar layout and a good chance to score well; although the view from tee to green can be disconcerting, especially the 18th. The 6th hole, an uphill par 4, needs a tee shot placed centre-right of the fairway to open up a compact, secure green. Yardage markers in the centre of the fairway on par 4 and 5 holes a useful reference for visiting players. Greens in good condition and running true despite the quantity of pitch marks! The course is well kept: dog walkers and ramblers on the neighbouring paths were respectful. The same can be said for the resident members whom were all polite.

Had a family party at this venue in the clubhouse. Janine was really helpful in arranging the night and setting up. Food was fantastic and good portions. I would recommend this highly. All my family and friends had a great time.

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.

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

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

Excellent golf course for those who play. Fine views if you don't! Relatively new clubhouse and function rooms, can be hired with large room, ideal for weddings and family celebrations.

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

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.

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

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

I can't comment on the golf course but the function room is nice. Good food, well stocked bar and welcoming staff.

Fantastic place to have a birthday party great function room
