Bolton Open Golf Course & Driving Range

Bolton Open golf club is located in the vast, spectacular countryside, remarkably only minutes' drive outside Bolton. The beautiful rolling fairways and surrounding Lancashire Hills provide a jaw-dropping background for this challenging, well-designed, eighteen-hole course. With hole lengths ranging from 110 yards to 530, golfers can be sure of a round to test all the contents of their club-bag.

The mature trees and part woodland aspect of the course add a little more difficulty to successfully navigating the course as shots can get lost or lose velocity amongst the trees if they are so much as slightly wayward.The club also benefits from a driving range, fabulous clubhouse, a pro shop, function suite and a bar making a warm, friendly environment for visitors.

  This course has a bad reputation. It has been around for ages and had a few reincarnations. Just had a few new holes added/remodelled late 2013 and it is very playable. The par threes are great, 17th is a big favourite if mine, from a slightly elevated tee, and the 8th blind over water is another cracker. Well worth a tenner of anyone's money. However, beware... The greens are horrific!
