Just played the course, suffering a bit after 3 days of proper Lancashire weather with a few bunkers full of water, but on the whole in great nick. The course presents a fair challenge and has some great 'risk/reward' approaches that can make your day or wreck your card. Most tee shots on the first 9 are quite tight and the 'new' 9 will be great when the landscape is fully developed. Greens were hard and true. Friendly reception from the secretary and members and I look forward to returning sometime soon. Two requests - first, can you get a course map/guide printed please as there are plenty of blind approaches with unforseen hazards (especially the well-placed bunkers that constantly caught us out); second - yardage markers on the new 9 were not as obvious as they could have been.

Good fun and good value for money. No 'pro shop' but that didn't detract from a good day out.

Just played the course and was more than impressed. Interesting front nine and a decent challenge. Although the back nine needs a couple of years to develop you will not play on better greens. Welcome from all staff was great and the food exceptional value. I would recommend this venue to any golfer and look forward to returning.

Having recently played the course i was not to impressed. I found that it lacked any real character and did not find it to be a great challenge for a better golfer. I played because the members rated the new 9 holes but i found these to be a complete disappointment. The are built on a small area of land and are therefore vary dangerous and just have a complete lack of character. They are totaly flat and boring also the grass on the fairways is very sparse. The tees on the new 9 are not level and although the greens are large they are nothing to rave about.

Just made myself a member, I have found the course to be a little shorter than I would have liked, but it is a tight course, and you have to be straight, the back nine will get better as the years go by, probably needs more trees on some of the holes, however the members are very friendly and sociable, I have invited a number of friends to play the course and all have expressed good reviews, You have to accept that the back nine is new and therefore a little bland the bar area is homely and the scran on sunday after the Comp is pretty good,all in all I am looking foreward to improving my Golf over the coming years at Westhoughton
