Opened in 1894 and overlooking beautiful Lancashire countryside, Blackburn Golf Club is a hidden gem. Founded in 1894 at the height of Blackburn's power as a cotton and engineering town, the club has seen many changes and improvements to the course and the clubhouse over the years, which have made Blackburn Golf Club a place to be proud of.

The 18 hole parkland course today, with its outstanding views of the Pennines Hills and Lancashire coast is a far cry from that original course, where sheep and cattle grazed. Situated less than 6 miles mile from Junction 31 of the M6 and 3 miles from junction 6 of the M65, Blackburn Golf Club is highly accessible.

Dignitaries Report

I would like to start by saying a big thank you for all the support I've already received in the last 12 months as Captain Elect. My late grandfather was a member of Blackburn Golf Club for 30+ years so choosing Blackburn was an easy decision for me. How times have changed, I used to caddy for him for a glass of coke!

First time playing this course and found it exceptional. We payed £18 each not including the buggie at £25 and it was worth every penny . From tee to green on every hole it was in mint condition. Well worth a visit . Hence the 5 stars . 👍

Good course for me and the lads you know aye. Bit hard to understand everyone being up in the north but that was alright. I do know little bit of Scouse though from listening to Steven Gerrard.

Great local place to have a quiet drink. We're just social members, so you don't need to play golf.

The course is mainly long and today alrhough it hadn't rained much all week the fairways were wet through.
I'll probably not go again .
I wouldn't put anyone off going but for me it's a no.
Darwen is 3 miles away and for the same price a far superior experience.

Very well laid out and challenging course.
Stamina is key as the course has some hills to attack. Fairways and greens well looked after and lots of challenges on each hole.

A very challenging course to play, but well worth it for 19th hole hospitality & good food & drink selection.
Friendly members and staff - an overall enjoyable experience. We'll be back!!

First time at Blackburn gc today, friendly pro and and the few members we saw, nice course in good condition, some interesting holes, some you can have a blast at and some you have to position it well off the tee, we had heard of the 8th and it definitely gets you blowing at bit, excellent value and we will deffo play here again.
