Course was in poor condition even for winter standards, stood waiting in the bar area to be served but appeared to be no staff serving even though we could hear people in the kitchen so after 10mins we walked out

Good value, good quality golf club.
Staff in the pro shop were polite and explained the current playing situation and where the course started, would recommend playing if in the area has a wide variety of holes!

Lovely flat course, lush fairways and true greens, a challenge but very enjoyable. Great clubhouse staff and nice coffee and a bacon roll to start the day.

I’ll split this review in to 2 parts. The 1st part is relative to the welcome that you receive at Birstall Golf Club, and all I can say is that the older chap who resides in the pro-shop is without doubt the rudest most arrogant man I have ever had welcome me at any golf course.
Polite greeting = No
Friendly conversation = No
Any form of positive body language to welcome a visitor to the club = No
The only time he appeared interested in any way was when he realised he could charge me £5 extra because it was now the 1st April.
The 2nd part is about the course, which I’m pleased to say

I purchased £100 of golf vouchers for my partners 40th birthday ( as he hadn’t played here before and heard it was a nice course) he tried calling one Saturday no answer , he tried 8 times over the day! No answer. So left it until the week after , same again called lots of times the day before he wanted to play no answer! So he decided to pack his… stuff up and just turn up , the man on the desk was very rude and said I’ve been here all morning and the phone hasn’t rang! My partner said I think you need to get the line checked then! Then he said anyway you can&rsquo

Probably the best option for Outdoor Coffee at Sunset in Leicester with certainly one of the best views. Indoors is a bit old fashioned in a 'Golf Club type way' but friendly staff, fresh and clean. As a place to sit and watch the sun go down with a nice drink you can't go wrong.

A course where even professionals struggle with small greens and tight fairways you have to be pretty straight off the TEE to give yourself chance to score well, I have been member for many years now, i never get tired or bored of playing this course. most definitely the friendliest club,If you make our professional smile on your visit ! He'll be your friend for life.....!!!🛎️😜

A fantastic club, with a superb crowd who were really welcoming when I spoke at this event. As a comedy audience, they were a sitting ovation! They cheered and carried me aloft on their shoulders. I sez "I can walk to the car." They shouted "You're going in the river!"

One of the friendliest golf clubs you'll visit. Excellent food and drink, amazing friendly staff. The course itself is amazingly well maintained.
