Great Course

A beautiful course to play, all greens were consistent and played a good pace. A good mixture of open and narrow fairways to hit too, all being well maintained. On the course flyover you don't get to see some of the lovely lakes surrounding but it really made for a great round of golf. Course was a challenge whilst there still being holes you really are able to attack. Definitely returning this summer.

Great course, greens let it down.

I have played this course over 20 times and I always love coming to Vale Royal. Always a pleasure and very friendly welcome.

The greens however on this last visit were in an extremely poor condition. Very bare in places and bobbly. I was expecting them to be in much better condition given the time of year and that the weather has been good over the last few weeks.

A good challenge

Really liked vale royal Abbey the back drop of the old Abbey is amazing. The Fairways were very lush, and the greens were very good and quite fast. Really enjoyed playing here the layout is good, pace of play was good and the food was good.
