Townley

Booked my round through golf now, on the day the course was closed due to snowfall could not get through to golf now to get a refund, so decided to ring the club and they managed to rearrange my booking for the week after. Happy golfers now.
A very big thank you to the staff at Townley, maybe golf now could do more !!

Excellent value for money

This course at £12 was excellent value for money. I play off 6 but not a member at a club, I travel to two different courses each week and this did not let us know.

Really good condition, greens a little slow and the course is a little short but it’s well laid out and just a lovely experience.

Thoroughly recommend for the price.

My one criticism, and this goes for all municipals - why is there no dress code etiquette. People playing in jeans, joggers isn’t right when playing golf (in my opinion)

Great course easy to walk but challenging to play and certainly will play it again, nice dog-leg first to start the round.
After the game we had a drink in the club house and the staff was very welcoming (see you soon).

Great Course

This has got to be one day f the best municipal courses in the north west. The course is in great condition in terms of fairways and greens and there are plenty of great looking and interesting holes.
The views up there are incredible - especially on a sunny day. The staff are always friendly and a round is brilliant value for money.
The only criticism is that because it is a municipal you can often get players on there who have not played before and can slow down play a lot for everyone else not just because they are struggling but also because they have no awareness of the etiquette and how to keep play moving at a decent pace for everyone else.
As a regular player on this course I find the best and quietest times to play are in the evening or at the weekend from around 4pm.

Fantastic course

The course was in beautiful condition. Fairways and greens were immaculate. We only paid £13 each. It’s the best value round of golf we’ve played. Can’t wait to play it again.
