Ellesmere Port
It was too wet to play - standing water and boggy - course should have been closed! It will be ok in dry conditions but we couldn’t even tee off at all
Work Required
In all honesty I believe that due to the amount of rain previously had, the course should have been closed as it was virtually unplayable
Aside from this I would recommend investment if they have any plans to lift it from being a municipal as this was apparent from the beginning
Good value
Decent course, only issue i had was the amount of standing water around the greens and in large parts of the fairways, made it really difficult in approach play, greens were surprisingly quick, but in all fairness for £12 for 18 holes on a Sunday afternoon I would be hard pushed to find better. Will definitely return but most likely when its dried out a bit.
Enjoyable
Nice course, clearly this time of year the course is not great in places as a bit muddy in parts and plenty of leaves equal lost balls but that’s what you get this time of year...pluses are the course isn’t busy so plenty of time for a few practice shots and chats
Ellesmere Port
Very good course if not rained the night before. Even after a full day of sun there were lots of boggy areas and mud paths everywhere. Not helped by letting too many buggies on.
Lay out very good and some challenging holes so would definitely recommend if been dry for a couple of days.
Only £4.95 for cooked breakfast so worth going an hour early to fill up for a slog through the mud!
Pleasant Course
We enjoyed a round of golf here, nice course, greens and mixture of holes. Worthy recommendation and obtained on a hot deal so great value for money.
Only spoiler, I left a wedge on the back 9 stupidly. Went back and it was no longer there, plus no one has handed it it back in. Someone now has a nice Cleveland black wedge. Cheers
Hooton golf centre
Fairways and greens in good condition, tees were rough and not level, very little sand in the bunkers but overall a good game of golf
Hooton
Played at Hooton 5 times in the last 3 months. Good value municipal course. Staff are friendly and helpful. Generally well kept. Greens in good condition. Course has big wide fairways and some trees and water hazards, but very little rough, a few tricky holes, but generally good for beginners. Because of that play can be slow at times, but most beginners are happy to let you play through. There are also a lot of pedestrians on the course; dog walkers, kids and people looking for golf balls.
Good course
Brilliant course and for the price well worth the drive, few tough holes at the start, fairways and greens well kept. Mixture of holes with a few good par 3s. Staff were friendly as were other players on course as some holes are a bit spread out.
Would definitely be play again.
