A great family oriented golf club

Anyone in the Manchester area looking for a great but challenging golf course should play at Prestwich with the new layout making a risk reward course you would be challenged but also forgiving on some holes beautiful surroundings and very friendly staff and members.

Nice. Packed in tight

The course is well maintained but there are too many areas where you tee off across fairways from other holes meaning you need to wait for other people to play

Decent course but not for me.

First time playing prestwich and there has certainly been a huge investment into restructuring the course. Really friendly and on a nice day we got round in three hours and a few minutes which is great. I played well enough and overall the course is in good condition. However, and this is purely personal, I just didn’t like it as much as others I’ve played. Found a few holes too similar and too many places where you were crossing other holes - I just don’t like that! Other golfers will love it - it’s just not for me.

Great course

I was a member at Prestwich a couple of years, but stopped playing for a time, so consequently it wasn’t economical financially to be a full time member.
I have got to say that the new design of the course is good and once fully landscaped will be excellent.
With, the exception of Worsley , I have played most courses in North Manchester areas, I still think that Prestwich is my favourite course and is definitely the best value for money.

First time playing with the new layout, short tight challenging course pretty much an iron of every tee as the rough is thick when your offline only took driver on the par 5 . The new greens still need a bit of time to become as good as the existing and same with the new fairways. Definitely Be back again in the future.

Remodelled Course Playing Well

Played course for first time since remodelled holes & layout with new houses & changes to hills..
Layout now much better & new holes bedding in well - though can be very tight in places where tees & greens crossover.
3 players with 19-24 handicaps scoring 29-35pts, so is a fair test - with only 1 par5, and a good number of reachable par4s..Round under 4 hrs.
Greens were fast & good quality - some bunkers GUR, and a few areas of new grass establishing, but.course condition still very good.
Practice area now used for car parking, and bar/veranda area looked small & busy so not used.
Great value so will play again & happy to recommend.

Enjoyable

Met by staff very friendly had 8.20 tee. Only a few people about. Course in good condition with a few areas still GUR. Greens in great condition. Not knowing the course had to hit blind shots but will definitely come again. Bar and staff also good. Did get busy as we finished, but we all enjoyed. Recommend early tee-time.

Great course

First time playing Prestwich 18 holes. They have still some work to do on upgrading tee details as they have only basic numbers on holes at present. We played late Friday and we didn’t really have any hold ups. Some greens are new and still establishing, but overall very good. They are a bit smaller than you would expect but a great course to jump on and get some golf in.

Fantastic course with a great new layout

My first visit since the new course layout opened. The new design has really enhanced the already enjoyable course which boasts fantastic views and plenty variety throughout. Such a welcoming, friendly club. Phil in the club shop took the time to talk me through the full new course layout at arrival, and went above and beyond to locate me on the course after a member found my wallet. (Thank you all!) I highly recommend a round at Prestwich Golf Club.

Course designer and green keepers..take a bow!

Well worth the money they've invested in redesigning this course. Fairways and greens immaculate. The greens are the best and most challenging I've played this summer. The course is such a challenge for such a small course and not the forgiving type where you can hit your driver and hope that your slice or draw off the tee will keep you in play... it won't! If you can hit straight off the tee then you'll be on green in 2 on the par 4s.
Took 3 hours to complete with a 3 ball and no hold ups.
Just need to complete the bunker repairs but apart from that, superb.

Shot my best score!

Loved the course as suited my style of play, obviously undergoing a renovation so bits need some work, but they are well underway to making a tidy little course. Very short so enjoyed it a lot! Oh I got an eagle on a par 4, so will play again just because of that!

Good course, but short and hilly

Good course with some challenging holes. It is short and very hilly. Lots of holes that cross over each other and what seemed to be a change in layout as there was new signage which sometimes made it difficult to find the next hole. Friendly members pointed us in the right direction.

New layout

Prestwich has had a new layout with new and remodelled holes being created. The overall course is excellent, fast green, challenging golf with friendly and welcoming.staff.

I am a beginner so the holes were challenging, the course definitely provides something for golfers of all abilities

The pace of play can be slow as some holes have crossover points with tees near other greens or other tees, however everyone was patient and it gave us an opportunity to talk with other golfers.

Overall, a great day out
