Best Golf Courses in Kirkholt, Greater manchester (2025)

Rating: 5 / 5

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.

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.

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.

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.

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 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.

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.

Fairways are really nice to hit off. Spongy and in great condition. Greens are a little dry in places but very true. Some short par 4's but also some brutal par 4's. Lovely layout and thoroughly recommend it. Saw someone's bag in the pond on the 18th which made me chuckle. Though surprised no one has cleaned it up and put it in a bin as seems to have been there a long time.

I come up here to walk the dogs and they love it, it's so beautiful and scenic, lots of livestock around, the wild ponies are lovely to see. Make sure your dogs are under control as there are lots of sheep and rabbits up there too

Excellently maintained municipal course with some really challenging holes. Easy to book and great value for money. Five stars.

Great course. Some puddles today as expected due to the lovely Manchester rain but the guys were on the course sorting them out

Rating: 5 / 5

As a beginner, find the course short enough to be achievable for most in a reasonable time frame, while also encouraging good play and course management in how you play (rather than raw distance off the tee if clubhead speed is something you struggle with). Minimal facilities but drinks, snacks and golf essentials (gloves, balls, etc) available and really friendly staff. Very well maintained course throughout; I've been back twice already!

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

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.

Rating: 4 / 5

Great course. Fantastic views some really good holes. Ended up with a birdie and five pars. Shot under 100 for the first time. Only negative play was really slow. Got stuck behind two four balls and I was on my own. Some daunting tee shots but a great challenge

Rating: 5 / 5

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.

Duxbury Woods are a lovely place for a dog walk with the promise of a tasty bacon roll & pot of tea at the end of it at the golf club cafe. The ladies in the cafe were very helpful & friendly - thank you 😊
