Breightmet Golf Club in Bolton

If I could give this zero stars I would! Tried ringing for 6 weeks to book this as my wedding venue with no luck at all, left voicemail after voicemail that was ignored. Eventually had to drive there to be given the lady's number who takes care of the wedding receptions for her to let me know she will ring me back in two days. They have now lost my business because if this woman cannot even pick up the phone how can I trust her with catering and planning my wedding reception. A massive shame for the actual venue because its a lovely place and that's why I had my heart set on it so now in search for another due to such poor communication and professionalism from Samantha!

Only a social member but love it there great atmosphere great members

Nearly got thrown off my trik dam pot holes and big gap side of manhole

Hired the room for a 21st birthday party. Really good communication throughout and brilliant help from Sam for setting up, etc. We could choose whether to bring a DJ or whether to play our own music through the speakers. We had to use their own caterers but this was not a problem as communication was again very easy and the food was fantastic. An ideal venue for a great celebration with views over the golf course that are well worth looking out over.

Nice place for a get together. Pleasant staff. And they do their own catering

Good course, shame they cannot get the drainage correct though as 2 out of 4 times I’ve played here they are playing off 9 holes.

Went to a Craft Fair here very pleasant clubhouse relatively easy to park . Enjoyed some refreshments in well lit and ventilated clubhouse

Nice little course, well maintained with some interesting holes

Breightmet Golf Course is situated between the towns of Bury and Bolton. The course is an excellent test of your golfing skills. The course offers 18 holes with beautiful scenic views with the odd deer appearing within some wooded areas. It's definitely worth a visit, the professional there is very knowledgeable and offers assistance if required. Give it a go you won't regret it (5 Star)

Lovely course, tough challenging holes. Definitely recommend

Although I appreciate that July was particularly wet, holes 12-15 were nearly unplayable due to the state of the fairways. Losing balls in grass clippings is not great. Also the bunkers accross the course had no sand in them. Overall dissapointing.

Very good day out enjoyed the golf course Very friendly members 😀 👍

Challenging course with some really interesting holes. The course is generally in reasonable condition, however the greens are in quite poor condition for the time of year. If they could be improved then the course would be great.

Clean place front 9 very good . Back 9 really bad with drainage.

If it’s winter golf don’t bother. Visited today, didn’t get informed till I got there 6 of the 18 were closed. Got stuck behind 2 gents for 15 minutes per hole and they wouldn’t let me through because “A single player isn’t recognised at this club” Also asked for directions and got pointed the wrong way by some members which I then saw them jump on the hole I was meant to play next. Also as you can see by the photo some greens were waterlogged. Informed the pro shop of all this when I gave up after 8 holes to which he replied “Okay” Shame because looked like there was some nice holes.

Breightmet Ladies played the Heritage 9 today. The course looks and plays beautifullly. Greens in great condition. Would recommend to other golfers looking to fit in some fine autumn golf.

A well kept, well run golf club that welcomes golfers of all levels. The course has challenging holes and greens like snooker tables. The pro shop has a good selection of golf equipment and they provide golf lessons on course at a practice area or within the shop in a room with a large projector to enable them to hone you golf skills.

We had our wedding reception here in Saturday and it was amazing. The staff were wonderful and made sure the day went off without a hitch. The food was absolutely amazing. Honestly can't fault it at all. Huge recommendations to these guys for any event.

Good challenging course with some long par 5 holes. Well kept greens and fairways.. defo worth a visit.

The hilly terrain makes this a challenging course to play. Stopped in the club house for lunch have to say the clubhouse staff were not very accommodating and it was to much to ask for some food.

Friendly ,laid back welcome from the Pro .. . Green staff are patient and good fun, course is varied and in good condition. Members were a pleasure to meet and its great value for money. Well worth a visit

our first time here and we thought oh here we go. but no...the course was in great condition . each hole marked out with distance markers . and where the next tee is . .hilly but challenging.. greens In Great condition. and looks like a few repeat visits should be on the cards. thank you

My dad's a member here so must be good

Friendly club members, knowledgeable golf Pro. The course will test your stamina and course management

We "moorside golf society " Played a few months ago and only managed a few holes before getting snowed off. But this Sunday course was excellent and the staff were very friendly. Best greens we have played this year. Well done to the greens staff. Thank you for a excellent day .

Went to s wake for my mother in law the food was fantastic and really tasty the whole place is lovely and comfortable

Decade of Dance Dj'd hear for the Cox family. Really nice staff and helpful. Superb venue for any celabration

First time at Breightmet today, really enjoyed the course with a nice variety of holes, greens very good, friendly staff and nice clubhouse, will definitely play here again.

Great venue with lovely staff #bromleycrossballoons xx

Great course true greens Great condition friendly atmosphere

Enjoyable round of golf on a course with a good variety of holes...

Great course, good condition alot of work going on with drainage and bunker renovation. Give a try

A perfect place to go for a walk.

First time playing here. Enjoyed it. Greens where very nice and consistent throughout the round. Fairways are generous in width. Semi and rough are also well kept. Very nice course.

Couldn't fault it. Very enjoyable round of golf.

It is nice walk, lovely greenery, very clean.

Attended my nephew's christening here yesterday. The room was freezing and when asked if they could put the heating on they said they couldn't put it on until half 1. It didn't come on at half 1 but we did notice it on a bit later but not for very long. Not acceptable for an event with young children there. You have to use their caterers which we wouldn't say was value for money for the amount of guests we had. They didn't give us a time limit to leave but started cleaning up around us while there were still guests there which made us feel uncomfortable. Then as were finishing off the woman I'm assuming was the manager/supervisor as she was shouting orders to staff, kept swearing in front of us paying customers and my 1 year old nephew who is picking up on words. Not the best experience and we won't be planning to hold any events here in the future.

good all round golf course,,plenty of 4/5 shot holes

GREAT COURSE WITH SOME CHALLENGING HOLES. WELL MAINTAINED.

First visit so...good test with some great views, very friendly members and staff, pro shop well worth a visit,the pro Jack has a great teaching set up, in all, a great first time experience.

Demanding course,in excellant condition.

Tuff course , very challenging but lovely scenery 100% recommend...bring plenty of balls

best in the northwest by a country smile 😊

Green keepers working wonders on all aspects of the coarse.

A perfect place to go for a walk. You can even take your dog. No need to ask for permission as the manager is dog friendly and has made it his mission to open up the place to dog walkers and loves it when he sees dogs running loose. They even get to vhace the balls that the occasional golfer loves to hit for them to catch.

Very clean lovely room and food was amazing

Lovely room, very accommodating staff, especially Sam and Miriam who allowed us to set the room up early and helped with any questions! Very well organised and reasonably priced drinks!

Very enjoyable course to play on. Wet at present and some holes closed. Good value and a nice challenge.

Very good food and friendly staff

Heating was switched off on a cold day during a christening party. Staff swearing whilst cleaning up.

What an amazing party venue, lovely views over the golf course. All the staff involved where polite and helpful. The catering staff served an excellent buffet and with the addition of chicken nuggets and chips for the kids all the guests commented on the excellent high standard of the food served. Paul the disc jockey provided the dance music.A perfect venue for any occasion Thanks to everyone at the Golf Club I had a wonderful and memorable 70th Birthday PartyNora

Have used BGC on several occasions for work meetings in the last 12 months and the service has been consistently of a very high standard. Our meetings have been for anything between 8 and 12 colleagues although the venue can definitely cater for more if required. At every meeting, the room has been set up perfectly and we have been given a work space which is very private. The welcome from Simon and his team has been extremely professional and our catering requirements have been perfectly met by the brilliant Dave and Gill. We have often had lunch before our meetings and every time the food has been delicious. All delegates have commented that they feel that this is the perfect venue for our meetings and we look forward to many more in the future.

Played the course off White Tees with friends as visitors from Pike Fold GC. Warmly welcomed by the new Head Pro Jack Horrocks who gave useful tips on the course. It was a lovely summers day and the course was very well maintained with true running greens. A tough but fair course which was reflected in some of our scores!Following the round we had a lovely hearty meal which was good value provided by Gill whilst sat on the patio area overlooking the 18th green. All in all an excellent day out and would recommend highly.

We recently held our Wedding Reception at Breightmet Golf Club and wanted to share what a wonderful time was had by all. From start to finish the service was fantastic. The room was decorated beautifully including a canopy over the dance floor. The golf course looked immaculate and guests were able to stand outside and admire the spectacular view during the warm evening.All staff were polite and our hot buffet was served by well mannered and helpful staff. Gillian and her team prepared a fantastic hot buffet which was complimented by all of our guests . Gillian was on hand to help throughout the evening and the evening and food was of five star quality ! Thank you to everyone who made our wedding reception an evening to remember .Jo and Mike Hamer

We would like to thank Breightmet Golf Club and Gillian for the friendly and accomodating service. The Buffet was thoroughly enjoyed by everyone.

What an amazing party the golf club hosted for my 40th Birthday. The service was seconded to none. Everyone comment how polite the staff were. Gill did an amazing job with the buffet..... everything I asked for and more. Would highly recommend AMAZING! Great team

Nice venue for a party but drinks a bit expensive

Arrived on a sunny, quiet Tuesday morning and was welcomed in by a chap called Tony Rothwell. I explained i was fairly new to NW courses and lived locally. He was quick to give me a few course pointers and very helpful and friendly. Then i get to the course... WOW! To say this is February, i couldn't believe how fantastic the course conditions are! Near perfect greens, neat tendered fairways and an overall gorgeous setting. A real hidden gem.

A fantastic 18 holes, in sunny weather.

Great facilities for informal work meeting, thanks great service all day. Played the course in the summer, hidden gem, will be back. Thanks

Course fantastic for this time of year.

Just had our joint 50th birthday party here. What a great night. As it was a Gangster & Molls themed party, we were able to dress the room early, which was a great help.All the staff are very friendly and accomodating. Gill and Dave, the caters are such lovely people, so helpful and make it look so easy. We had meat and potato pie & chicken curry and rice hot buffet. Everyone said how delicious the food was. A perfect venue for a celebration

We had our wedding reception here and it is a lovely venue that I would highly recommend. It is just the right size, overlooking the golf course with a beautiful view, staff members are extremely helpful and friendly, plenty of bar staff on so never any queues at the bar and the buffet food (done by the venue caterers) was amazing!!!!!! Really happy with our night!

Beautiful.serene surroundings. The clubhouse is warm and inviting good size and pleasant I can imagine whatever your event is you will be satisfied and sure too enjoy your event. Having a memorable and pleasant occasion .

Not over taxing. Had a fair round to say I had never played course

lovely room ....had a lovely buffett on friday night, the food was really fresh with a great selection the staff were excellent very friendly & helpful well recommended

Avery nice function room, very well dressed for the occasion and overlooking the golf course. The food was very good and the staff couldn't be more helpful.

Friendly and quick service at the bar for functions and very spacious and obviously a great outdoor space when weather is nice too.

Great course, be warned it's very hilly but worth the walk.

Had a good night from what I can remember!!free bar so it's all a bit fuzzy after after about 9:30!

Went on Thursday lunch 2 courses for £5.75. Amazing value, we had fresh haddock in batter hand cut chips & mushy peas. We had melon to start with. Great food, great value !!!!

lovely course just a bit wet in places

Great course even in torrential rain. Couldn't have been made anymore welcome by the members on the course and especially the staff.. Many thanks.

Beautiful course. Very well kept. Fully recommended.

Great course and you always feel well here And Bob in the pro shop is great

Been a member for over 14 years, it has a very friendly membership and what I believe to be the best course in the area

21st Birthday Celebration. Absolutely Brill Venue. Great Food and Lovely Staff/Managers x

Fantastic course with really friendly members.
