Great place, stopped travelling back down south from weekend in manchester. Best crazy golf we've done, the pully bridge brilliant, and the animal and tractor noises!! Our group of 12-70+ loved it 😊😊❤️ Yummy coffee & cake after

Took my boys here for the first time last week and they loved it - now I need to book some golf lessons as they're hooked! Nice cafe too. Friendly staff 🤞😊

We had been recommended The Beeches by some friends and it certainly didn’t disappoint. Set in the heart of the Cheshire countryside it makes for a wonderful location to play adventure golf. Parking is a doddle, and free! The adventure golf course is AMAZING. The farm theme really works and animal noises whilst playing add to the atmosphere. Two highlights for me were the pulley bridge and the jump bridge. Never seen anything like it on a golf course before! It took about 50 minutes to do the 18 holes and it was quite busy. They give you a slot when you book, so that helps with the capacity. Had a coffee and ice cream after the game. Both were excellent and good value. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area! Oh and my 8-year old beat me 😂😂

We have played the 18 hole Adventure Golf (Crazy Golf) number of times. I booked online, you can walk-in as well. staff have always been helpful. it can get busy at weekends. The place is always clean, the course is well maintained. It's a place all the family can play. Cafe on site 18 hole Adventure Golf (Crazy Golf) has been designed around our working farm; 'The Beeches'. With each hole packed full of farm features and effects, we hope that this will bring lots of fun for children to really engage with golf and enjoy an outdoor activity with family and friends. You can also have a DRIVING RANGE posted 16/09/24

Play here a few times a year and always found it to be in good condition. Quite a flat course, but lots of awkwardly placed trees which mean you can’t go too offline.

It's such a beautiful place and by far the best 9 hole golf course I've ever played. Friendly staff foxes birds River Woods all in 9 holes fantastic.

Rating: 5 / 5

Don't be put off the fact that this is a shortish nine hole course. The second nine plays from different tee boxes which does make a difference in a couple of holes. You will be allocated two tee times by the pro,(front nine and back nine). Always worth taking the phone number for the bar so you can ring when teeing off the ninth and have a pint waiting before your back nine on a hot day. A new green should be in play by the end of the summer. Just a flick with a wedge over the water but beware the undulations in the green. House manager Ben and his staff were exceptionally helpful and the quality of the food is always high. Go on...make the effort and visit

Very picturesque 9 hole golf course. Immaculately maintained with two very different tee positions on each nine. Food and service excellent in a beautiful location. Well worth a visit.

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

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.

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

Rating: 5 / 5

Brilliant course, but we played just after the greens were spiked and sanded, so they ran a little slow.

Was here for a function,the grounds are lovely and well maintained and the staff were very friendly and helpful. Function room was a good size and perfect for the event. Can't comment on the course as I don't play golf,but it looked great. =)

This is a lovely course, challenging that is for sure but I is well maintained, all the staff are polite and friendly. The pricing of the course is fair for how well it is maintained. If you are looking for a challenge then I would certainly advise visiting Davenport Golf Club. I can say that I will be returning again in the future. I have returned and it's just as enjoyable and a well kept course the second and third tines of visiting.

A real test of Golf, you need to have played a good all round game to score well at Mellor. The greens have been fabulous and consistent all year round. Finally , its a really friendly club, with great facilities. Drop in for a cup of coffee, a Sunday dinner, or a big event, you won't be disappointed.

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.

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

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.

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.

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.

Spent a great afternoon here with our daughters and friends. The course is brilliant with such amazing attention to detail and really creative ideas. Waterfalls, a cave and lots of authentic Australian details. So much better than other adventure golf courses I’ve done previously. Friendly staff and we didn’t feel rushed at all. Really good value for money as it took us close to a couple of hours to complete. A fabulous afternoon out for all ages!

Very nice venue for an event with great views overlooking the golf course,we were there celebrating a friend's end of life, the club provided an excellent buffet,I highly recommend this place.

We were recommended this place a while ago and gave it a go & we are glad we did. It’s a quirky environment with a mixed friendly crowd. They have a happy hour 4-6pm daily and do a locals discount card which is a bonus! They also have planned themed evenings and events going on which adds to the environment. The beer is good and there is a good selection of spirits & other alcoholic drinks and coffee is also available, being lager drinkers the Poretti is a great lager, and they have neck oil available as an alternative, cocktails are also available which is great. They have just started doing a breakfast bacon sandwich, which we’ve yet to try. Wi-Fi is available. The bar has 2 golf lanes available, a pool table, a games room which is ideal for kids, plus other games. The staff are great, especially Rachel who welcoming, very friendly and a great social person & knows her clients well. I can highly recommend Avry.

A warm welcome awaits at the home of indoor golf Choice of courses and skill levels. Great drink offers and wonderful company and staff. The bacon brioche is a must !

To comment on Laura Rodwell review, this is so unfair and petty to create an account and leave a bad review on a local business. I was at the Avry last night (NYE) and it was very busy, the young lady was on her own serving everyone the best she could, this was not her fault. Laura read the room a little better, don't be rude to a young girl on her own... does it make you feel important? The fact this is your first review specks volumes about you. I am a local and if anyone reading this thinking about coming to the airy, please do, its a great place. Laura, I don't think you will be missed.

It's a a good course with some difficult holes and others that are more normal. It has some long par 5 and par 4 holes that the average player couldn't hope to reach in 3/2. The rough is generally forgiving allowing you to find and hit balls. Not if you hit it into the Manchester Ship Canal though. It has suffered in the hot weather and the greens and some approaches are currently in poor condition. Still great fun to play.

Rating: 5 / 5

What a great course, greens are superb and the weather was glorious. The day was topped off making a hole in one on the 9th
