Great welcome in the pro shop , very friendly .Only played 9 holes as a visitor but wow , the best greens I've played hands down all year. The front 9 had some really lovely holes ,especially the par 3 9th. Will 100% be going back 100% credit to the greenstaff. Pics of the 9th green and also looking back to the 9th tee. Superb hole.

Having been a member previously, I was happy to play a round last week, to my delight, I cannot tell you the improvements that have been made to the course. Rob (head green keeper) and his team have improved the course and the ascetics 10 fold. The greens are in the best conditions I’ve ever seen them, the fairways and second cuts are cut to perfection and the general upkeep is second to none. Well done Rob and team for the great improvements and attention to detail. Definitely well worth a visit if you looking for a round of golf.

Nice course. Good, inviting fairways from the tee box. Some long par 4s and a 210 yrd par 3. 16th drives over the 4th green, so it can cause a little bit of a wait. 6th has a ditch right on driver distance running across fairway be careful. 9th hole par 3 very tough, good-looking hole. Overall, it was very nice, not too hilly course. Proshop and clubhouse are very good.

Played an open day here, staff super friendly, golf course was in great condition and the back 9 was brutal (made harder with windy conditions). Really enjoyed it though and the food afterwards was lovely!

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

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.

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 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.

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.

Played as a reciprocal, this is a great challenging course, very well looked after and not a boring hole in sight. Lovely breakfast and coffee £7.50 and the assistant pro was a decent lad. Will definitely play it again.

Review for crazy golf. It's really good, we had a decent amount of fun with the little one. There are two courses which we did both. Both 9 holes and themed pretty well. Took about 20 mins to do each course but can imagine it taking longer should there be a few other groups playing. There's a bar and food area which we didn't use but we had popcorn and made use of the photo booth. Would definitely come again and make sure of some of the offers they have.

Firstly, PARKING IS FREE in both car parks for HUKD customers. I booked both crazy golf courses for my son (8) and I. When we arrived I was greeted by 2 lovely young ladies. Really good first impression. Great having these 2 customer facing as they were friendly and helpful. Both courses were great. We were able to take our time as it was pretty quiet and no matter what, my son was always going to win. We stopped after one course to get some food which is slightly over priced but was good and all part of the experience. We then completed the second course. Took around 1.45mins with food but it was very quiet. Only a few families in. My son loved it! Definitely worth a visit and looks good for a kids party. Again, the staff were fantastic makes a difference.

Come here now a few times for mini golf. Absolutely love the set up, and variety of challenges along the way. Played both courses a few times now. Always fun for all the family and all ages. Fair prices for both adults, kids and family. Always seem attentive to customers needs - and dietary concerns too. Parking in two local car parks, redeem free parking with giving your reg plate at reception. They do offer virtual golf, that I wish to try at some point. Food offered on site for a variety of food needs, intolerance, allergy, vegan, vegetarian and more. Would happy come back.

Great fun. We did 1 game of golf, tried the food, and went on the simulator. Would visit again. The food was okay but could be better. All arrived in plastic baskets.

Rating: 5 / 5

Wow, what a fantastic course with great views all the way round. Superb variety of holes and some tricky par 3s too, and plenty of wildlife to admire. Bit of up and down but nothing to steep so great exercise too. Will be back again, hopefully when the weather is a little less windy.

Oct 7th 24 Just back from a first visit to this club. Great condition all round. The best greens I've played all season. Unfortunately no bar or food on today.( like most clubs on Monday.) A bit of a long narrow lane up to the club but will definately return

Nice club, cracking views, great greens on an interesting parkland / moorland course. Staff and members were a friendly bunch.

Rating: 5 / 5

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

Rating: 4 / 5

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.

V friendly Golf Club, with a lovely terrace. The food particularly Sunday dinner is great value.

Great day out. Nice little course with some lovely holes. Great to see maintenance being carried out on the course aswell. The course was reasonable dry considering the rain we have had. Well worth a visit . 100% be back. Friendly pro shop and well sign posted.

Whitefield golf club is a hidden gem in the north west of England. The greens are a treasure and there is a hole for every type of golfer. Our golf society continually chooses Whitefield because of the golf but come back for the hospitality they offer. If you’re organising a society day here, don’t hesitate, just book it.

Decent Parkland⛳️Good conditions, Some Interesting holes😉 Just Playing The Par3’s Is worth the visit Alone; Greens rolling nice and true⚡️Very scoreable If Swinging 🏌🏻‍♂️🔥

Rating: 4 / 5

Nice golf club nestled in country lanes. The M62 motorway is to one side of the club and the lane to get to it could do with some pot hole filling but these are the only negatives I have. The main function room is a good size and is light and airy. Tunshill will provide catering for your event. I have attended several functions there of different types and I would be happy to return

Played as a visitor today after work. Not my best round of golf but really enjoyed it the course is well maintained and everyone we came in contact with seemed friendly enough. Spoke to president while he was working on the club house and they’ve got some really good deals for new members. Worth thinking about. Will be going back.
