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.

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 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!

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.

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

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.

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

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.

Amazing day from start to finish at my Sisters wedding. Drinks reasonably priced for a golf club venue. The ceremony, breakfast and evening reception were just perfect. The staff were really welcoming, plenty of bar staff working the bar so never waited to be served. The food was beautiful as were the surroundings as was the standard of the ceremony/function room and the way it was dressed. Absolutely wonderful venue, team of catering and bar staff and the view from the outdoor seating area on the large balcony was the cherry on the cake.

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.

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

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.

Absolutely delicious Sunday dinner 🍽 😋 Couldn't fault anything. Very hearty portion of meat(s) and help yourself to the rest. Spotlessly clean tables set out nicely with crisp white table linen. Reasonably priced food too 😋

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.

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.

Society day, really enjoyed it, nice course. Captain of club, what a nice chap seen us all tee off, give us some insights of the course and was still there to see us all in + prior to our meals before seeing us off home, thanking us for going to his club on the day, and saying he'd wishing we'd go back again in the future. Thank you very much 👌

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

Rating: 5 / 5

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.

Food is amazing, taste delicious. Big portions. Great value. Premises is a little shabby in place needs a refurb. Course is beautiful. Love the addition of the outdoor seating put in over covid. That'll be lovely in summer

If you're OK with a pleasant golf course there is no better place than here, there is a lovely atmosphere on the course and off 😀

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.
