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

This is my third visit to this club in 10 years and I must say things are looking a bit tired. The course has held up well after the dreadful weather we have experienced over this past year and this has shown especially on the greens. It has created very challenging putting issues with no way of reading the speed (slow) or performance (bobbling) on the surface. The tees were in excellent condition and much can be said of the fairways but off line in the semi rough and ball lose was high for all our groups as the grass has not mowed due to weather conditions and the softness of the ground. The club house is also looking a bit tired with paint work needed just about everywhere, all said I very much like this club with some long challenging holes and will recommend to others.

The course is in excellent condition at the moment (May18). We had a sunny, quiet evening round - and it was absolute bliss. Helps that I had my best back 9 ever!!!

Played today with a small work society, and we had a great day out. First time we've played there but won't be the last. Lovely course with some great holes that make you think about your tee shot. Breakfast wasn't bad either.

Brilliant venue for a celebration. We hired the club for a family party and it was perfect. Connor was so helpful organising it all. The food was excellent - everyone commented on what a great buffet it was (with lots of fresh, healthy options as well as the classics). Thanks for all your help!

Played our end of year Santa golf day today. From Chris in the pro shop to everyone in the club house friendly, helpful and welcoming. Course played really well and very well maintained and even the hard frost did not spoil the day. Food after a cold but enjoyable round made for a great day. Thanks to everything at Stand GC for making it a brilliant end to our Season. We will be back in 2023 to play this course in the summer.

Played here yesterday with our golf society (Flag Hunters) and thoroughly enjoyed the course. Considering all the rain we have had, the course was in excellent condition. There are some fantastic views of the surrounding countryside as well, which was a bonus. The hospitality in the pro shop and clubhouse was first class. Hopefully we get to go back next year, when the 6th hole will be in play.

Played here today, we were in front of 4 ex captain's, they all were so friendly, a credit to their club. Course was in very good all round condition for the time of the year, really enjoy playing here and will be back soon.

Went on a rainy Sunday not expecting much and was pleasantly surprised. Fairway, tees and greens were in great shape, and the course was varied, challenging and enjoyable. Some of the bunkers were rather solid but given the level of rain over the past few days I can't complain. Recommended.

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

Another little hidden paradise that I didn't even know existed just round the corner from our house. Lovely place great friendly staff!

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.

Great course that doesn't punish you too much off the tee's

Always a pleasure to play Worsley, made even better by the way the competition was run, a great job by all concerned 👏

Lovely quiet course in excellent surroundings. Greens in fantastic condition. Fairways were unbelievable. Ball always sitting nice. Clubhouse very modern inside. Recommend. 10/10.

Great venue for a Wedding reception! Plenty of parking, staff were brilliant and the hot and cold buffet was amazing! Highly recommended!

Lovely golf course to play on. Highly recommended for beginners too. And the greens were outstanding, not a bit of moss/weed in them.

Beautiful course. Friendly staff and members. 10th hole sign for No Drivers allowed on the hole needs to be more prominent. I totally missed it because the tee box is way in front of the sign. If it wasn't for a member telling me, I was hitting driver... Will definitely visit again

Friendly staff, great price and very quiet for an evening round we almost had the course to ourselves.. really enjoyed it, some tricky holes but very well kept and an enjoyable few hours. We'll be back for sure

Had a poor winter with greens suffering due to the unprecedented rainfall but has well and truly turned the corner now. The introduction of the new head greenskeeper along with the hard work of the current staff has got the greens back to their best and the fairways are fantastic. Great value for money. Good to see it back to the standard it should be!

First time here but a great course (It's in the name) very well looked after the fairway and greens were perfect. The greens were fast so go easy!😁

A really nice course to play the weather was lovely some nice views over the course my only complaint is there was no bins for rubbish.bu apart from that some nice wide fairways on most holes so I really enjoyed it would recommend this course

Great value for pay and players and members alike. Course is normally in great condition and presents a fair challenge for players of all standards. Friendly welcome atmosphere in the clubhouse.

Great views. Ample car park with all gold related services available along a nice venue for events and celebrations. Great location easily navigated with many games in club house/bar.

First time we’ve played it⛳️ Hit a Level 68(yellows)☀️🏌🏼‍♂️ Definitely be back🤗

Prestwich golf club is a inner city parkland course that you can complete in just over 3hrs offering a good challenge with a nice club house and friendly members

Born and bred on this golf course, cannot reckonise any hole having said that it was 60 yrs ago. It was 1964 when I became a junior member...many famous faces I remember from coronation Street cast especially Eddie Shah who famously started up his own tabloid. Those were happy days and Eddie if you're still out there, give us a bell cos when you missed your shot on the seventh hole and you threw your brand new aluminum shafts into the tree, I didn't think you would go back a climb a tree at ur age

A lovely golf course and very challenging, not long, but very tricky, you have to be very straight or you are in trouble. A 180 yd club will be perfect for most holes as the fairways will do the rest. Majority of bunkers are GUR but the greens are very good. Gentlemen called Paul in the pro shop was an absolute gentlemen and pleasure to meet, he could not do enough for me. I will be revisiting.

Good size function room with bar available

We came back from France for my sister in laws birthday meal held at the Golf club on the 9th of November. A very pleasant setting with friendly, welcoming staff. One of the bar staff was particularly helpful, I didn't have a poppy to commemorate Armistice day as I had arrived the day before. She very kindly found one for me. I would strongly recommend it.

Played the course today 12th January 2025 for the first time With all the rain,snow and frost we have had over past few weeks the course played well even though a bit Icy and frozen ground in parts and sparse patches of snow Good value for the cost Will be back when weather improves Only one downfall was the pond on 1st hole lol😳⛳🏌‍♂️😃

Very good pitch and putt course, has plenty of features and challenges that will bring you back playing it again and again - no two rounds are the same. Generally has been well maintained and a few holes now have new teeing off mats however some need replacing.

Played Heaton Park Golf Course today was supprised at what a fantastic condition the course was in especially the greens. Credit to the greenkeepers Very hilly course with lots of blind shots. Once you have played a few times you know where to hit the ball for best position. Fantastic views from the golf course. Staff friendly and welcoming.

Me and My 2 boys contacted them to play when we travelled to Manchester from Boston in May 2023. They were very helpful and nice. Rental clubs were available, and course was a fun change from local Boston courses. Staff was great..... Recommend for a fun day.

I’ve played here a lot over the years and the new guys running it have got it into the best condition I’ve ever seen it. Quite hilly and a lot of blind shots but if you’re hitting it straight it’s not a problem. Some excellent holes and some amazing views. One of the best courses in the north west without a doubt.
