Carden Park Hotel, Golf Resort & Spa

Brilliant

An excellent hotel. Modern, clean with good bars and restaurants.

Can't fault any aspect of the hotel - other than the ongoing refurb causing a bit of inconvenience getting to rooms!! Staff were all competent, friendly and helpful

A beautiful hotel in a glorious location. Comfortable room, friendly staff, lovely food!

Very nice have stayed before so new it was going to be good.

By far the nicest hotel and facilities of any UK golf trip I've been on.

Fabulous facility/centre. The rooms were spacious, the staff very helpful and the food was great. Definitely one to go back to.

Couldn't fault it, Brilliant

The hotel was beautiful and the staff were all very welcoming, the food in Redmonds was lovely both our meal and breakfast were perfect

One of the best hotels I've stayed in for a golf trip, staff honestly can't do enough for you. Food in the Vines was an exceptional experience!

From the drive through the estate, welcome at the Club House, to online check in, to quality of rooms, to Redmonds dining, the golf courses, to online check out, all were excellent. Would highly recommend as a mini golf break

Great accommodation. Food was amazing and they even brought a birthday cake out

Lovely hotel looks like it’s not long been refurbished

accomodation was first class and so was the staff, the food was also excellent.. At £7.60 for a pint of beer AND £14.00 for a pot of tea for 4 our group thought that this was extremely excessive.. Also we were not told by your company that we were only getting a £30.00 food allowance for our evening meal !!!!! ... This was embarrassing as there were only 2 items available on the evening menu!!!!! ..£49.00 required for a simple steak !!!This is not what our group wanted to hear !!!!!disappointing. Also their was also a 12 % tip required although that was not compulsory..

We had a fabulous time. Just on our last breakfast some foods were not available due to 1 person in the hotel had a severe nut allergy. So the other guest were not able to have Granola Muslie and Pastries. Surely this should not happen.

Great hotel with excellent accommodation and bars Food very good , ate off table dhote menu which really should include dessert without paying separately?!

We had an incredible three-day event at Carden Park with our group of 20 players. The facilities, hospitality, and overall experience exceeded all expectations. Across the board, participants agreed that this is one of the best venues we've ever visited for competitive play. We’ll definitely be back!

just a superb hotel everything done to a first class standard.

Annoy find a fault in this hotel. Everything is pristine. The food is fabulous and there are so many staff, all engaging with the guests. Would recommend this to small and large groups and couples.

Staff very pleasant and very helpful and would go out of their way to help you

Spectacular venue

Brilliant in all aspects. Accommodation and food etc first class. Golf course and club house first class. Cannot fault it

Very comfortable accommodation, lovely newly refurbished room , Helpful staff

Every aspect of the hotel and its facilities were first class. The staff were extremely helpful and friendly in all departments. The accommodation, the restaurants, particularly The Vines were of an extremely high quality and standard Both golf courses were absolutely fantastic and again the staff there were most helpful in every aspect. A great vacation and golfing experience. I tried to book this package with the hotel directly but my wife has not long partaken of the noble sport and we simply wanted to play three rounds as a 2 ball which the hotel could not guarantee. But when I used the services of this golf travel company I found them to be massively helpful and understanding of our circumstances and everything was organised to perfection. Harvey is a credit to your company and I shall most certainly use your services again. Thank you.

Bit disappointed this year.we went last year,18 people and was disappointed with the food so this year I told yourself that we want to go into the main restaurant and pick off the menu.we were told by yourself that wouldn't be a problem,and we would have a £30 tab per person to pick of the menu.when we arrived,they knew nothing about it,and said we couldn't do that.i asked to speak to the restaurant manager,and she said it was too late to do it on the Thursday,and we could only do it on the friday.also,the first night,man utd was playing,we were all looking forward to it in Morgan's bar,then told we wasn't allowed in there because there was a wedding on,so we had to watch it in another bar with no sound.we asked for sound to be turned up,and they said no.so the Thursday with the food and football was a disaster.

Disappointed to note that the hotel & golf events were NOT advised of the changes we made to our party. This caused confusion which took some time to sort out.

Really enjoyed our stay at the hotel. The only thing missing is a bit more entertainment at night ie more TVs, pool tables, dart boards, live singer.

Fantastic few days. Top notch facilities and great food.

Excellent hotel. Attention to detail and level of service from staff was outstanding. Drinks were expensive but I guess that's to be expected in a hotel of this quality.

Service charge, ridiculous

The hotel is a very nice and clean .food and service is excellent. Nothing was to much trouble. Gad a nice room with plenty of facilities. Will definitely go back

Absolutely great hotel, facilities & staff.

Lovely hotel, immaculate both inside and out.

Rooms outside. Might have been problematic in wet weather.

Very nice hotel clean and staff excellent £16.00 for a bloody Mary a joke

brilliant as always

Excellent service and facilities

The hotel location was superb with lovely grounds and views. The staff could not have been more friendly and helpful. The room was spotless and well equipped. Overall experience was excellent.

Rooms were impressive

Fantastic Hotel Everything you need for a great golf trip Excellent service

would stay here again, first rate.

Spot on, couldn't fault it.

fabulous ,fabulous all the party so enjoyed the trip and we now want to make it an annual trip , i have already made an enquiry about august. next year Thank you for your first class management and help All superb

First class service

Great stay, can’t fault the hotel Wish had more time to use facilities

We had a lovely spacious Courtyard room with effective but very quiet air conditioning, which was a real bonus during the hot nights. We ate lunches in the lounge bar and golf clubhouse and had dinners in the Brasserie and The Vines Restaurant. The food was delicious in all, with good menu choices and delightful staff. The Taster Menu in The Vines was a particular highlight. We didn’t use the Spa or Gym facilities, but did do the ‘Vertigo’ experience, which was such fun and expertly supervised by Abby. All in all a most memorable stay and we plan to return next year.

First class couldn't fault anything plenty of staff to accommodate your needs and helpful

Lovely hotel with top quality rooms. The staff's attention to detail was second to none and made us feel very special. Nothing was too much trouble. Particular Graham the porter who assisted me when transporting all my baggage! Getting to the various floor levels was a bit tedious due to layout but all in all a great place to stay.

Great rooms and food. Staff were wonderful buy a little pricey for drinks.

Great hotel being going for 11 years! Fantastic breakfast. The evening food was a bit prepared for the golf package. It was eatable but only average.

top marks for this hotel, the staff, the set up, the rooms, the food and the location, absolutely faultless, we will be coming back to this location again.

All facilities were excellent,rooms very comfy, clean and well cared for.

Fantastic hotel and facilities. Rooms are clean and modern.

First class,excellent value for money.Will be returning for years to come.

Great hotel with friendly staff and top class facilities at every step. Only small wrinkle was they could have planned bar seating a bit better for the first England Euro match. Maybe they will sort it for the final LoL!

Great stay, Staff were were very helpful Easy check in, Would stay again

fantastic hotel great food

Complex is top of the range, staff were professional and helpful at all times. Hotel rooms are first class, beds comfortable and pillows were excellent. The only thing that stood out in a negative way was any purchase made was over priced and expensive. Saying that though I would highly recommend this facility and would go back.

Excellent,a great venue all around for golfers and our wives.

Really disappointed with the service and standard of food.

Spot on excellent

Fabulous staff, accommodation and food

Excellent.

Everything was spot on as usual.the staff were brilliant as was the food

Lovely hotel, very comfortable with friendly staff - especially Sammy in the Redmonds restaurant who provided excellent service

Excellent hotel. Staff, food & drink all great. Not sure £7.20 for a pint of Guinness is good value but otherwise loved our stay

Lovely hotel, staff and location was all perfect.

We had a lovely stay at Carden Park. We booked through Your Golf Travel and they ensured that our arrival and check in was seamless. The hotel has fabulous amenities and is very well maintained. The staff were very friendly and keen for us to enjoy our experience there. We played two rounds of golf and the courses are fabulous. I will definitely be visiting again. It was just a shame that our room was too hot as the temperature outside was at least 30 degrees. There was a fan in the room but it was not sufficient.

Beautiful hotel with very high quality facilities and lovely staff. Restaurant and bar somewhat overpriced but still a great place to stay overall

Staff very friendly and efficient. Comfortable spacious room. Meals tasty but evening meal which was included in the deal was expensive as allowance was £30 and didn’t cover a starter and main course

Room and bed were very comfortable. Enough tea/coffee facilities, housekeeping excellent

It’s an expensive place to stay eat and drink but it’s true quality!

Lovely large bright and airy rooms. We particularly liked the garden rooms

A lovely hotel and setting. Staff are very pleasant. The rooms are spacious, but could be modernised, they need air conditioning and the bed mattress was just too firm, to the point that it was uncomfortable. The food is high quality, prices in the hotel are generally high. The setting is beautiful and there are a lot of facilities. It is misleading to think the spa is included, even upon arrival we were lead to believe this, more needs to be done to emphasise the difference between the leisure facilities and the spa. The golf package was generally well organised, however, there seemed to be a waste of a few golf companies going to the Open from the hotel, all using half empty coaches, perhaps you could have joined up. The coach provided on the 22nd was dated and not that clean. Also for changes, communication was via the App only, this could be difficult if no wifi in places. We did see the message about change in coach time on 23rd but some did not. Thank you, we enjoyed.

Another excellent stay. The staff set this hotel apart. The whole package is outstanding. Both courses were in fabulous condition. Food was top quality too. Only negative point was the cost of buggies, £42 each for quests with medical conditions was far too expensive

We weren't made aware by golf travel that we only got a 30.00 voucher towards our evening meal the package i bought from golf travel was half board including evening meal! The outdoor spa was lovely but comes at a cost of £120.00.

Great golf stay at Carden Park. Great food & nice rooms. Staff were really attentive & pleasant. Clubhouse & pro shop staff were excellent & really helpful. They have a golf bag store if staying over night & playing next day which was great. One of our favourite golf packages so far, highly recommended.

The hotel is fabulous. The bedrooms are large and in perfect condition, bar facilities are great and the food in the restaurant was first class. I can’t praise the staff enough. Nothing was too much trouble for them.

Fantastic absolutely fantastic

Excellent room and restaurant service

Hotel was oversubscribed. Too busy- very long wait times to be served food at lunch and couldn’t get near reception as so many people were queuing. The room had no air con and was stifling. No spa treatment included in the golf spa package. Not really 4* experience unfortunately. Aside from the golf, a disappointing experience.

Great golf great food great getaway

There was a party of eight of us 2 single rooms and three twins. All the rooms were excellent and we had a wonderful time.

Had a fabulous bank holiday weekend with family playing golf

High quality resort for this kind of break

This place was unreal. Can’t say enough great things about it

Cannot find one negative with this Hotel, Staff are helpful, friendly, professional and a huge compliment to Grace on reception a credit to Carden Park

The hotel is fantastic. The staff absolutely superb- so helpful and friendly.

Excellent !!

Excellent accommodation, fabulous facilities, professional and helpful staff

Hotel was faultless really, plenty of bar areas for a few drinks, food was very good which was impressive given the size of restaurant and amount of people. Club house and driving range facilities were to a high standard. This venue will take some beating.

Excellent

Thoroughly enjoyed the stay, comfortable environment, welcoming and helpful staff. Drinks prices were a little high especially when you’re a captive audience. Also - the Nicklaus course was seriously flawed (not their fault, but greens infected with fungus making them very uneven) however their offering as recompense was only to benefit them - pretty poor (ie a “2-4-1” voucher for the course requiring you to come back, stay and spend yet more money on them!?!)

Great hotel with friendly staff and very clean

Immaculate rooms. Food better than excellent and the staff were very helpful, polite and very smart.

Newly refurbished rooms were lovely and spacious. Lots to do although we were there for the golf this time. Very clean, helpful staff. Would def go back

Lovely hotel staff were great!

The hotel had everything we needed. Staff could not do enough for us and the food was top quality.

Hotel and staff were excellent. The room was one of the best we have stayed in. It was annexed to the main hotel but had everything you need.

Excellent hotel with very friendly staff

really good stay with everything pretty much going well, loads of positives hotel, food, golf, staff etc.... couple of negatives i received a flyer couple of months prior to going offering same deal for £80 less, which would of put us on par to the normal price trip other was just the distance.

Lovely hotel, lovely surroundings just a bit pricey for what it was. Restaurant was a little overpriced for what it produced

Staff and food fantastic

Fantastic

We found our room very comfortable with a great view of 16 and 17 Greens crossing a lake from tee to green on the Nicklaus course.

Superb stay. Upgraded to a suite which was really pleasant. Service excellent across the board.

Got upgraded which was a nice surprise, so was somewhat spoilt. very pleased with the quality of room / furnishing/ cleanliness / amenities. The package was spot on, easy to find - easy flow - no hassle - the ambiance was good.

Really excellent hotel. Well appointed and very comfortable rooms. Excellent food , and breakfast was superb. Congratulations to all the staff who were without exception , friendly , helpful and appeared happy. We travel all over the world and will definitely be returning to Carden park

Fabulous rooms in a wonderful location

Great Hotel, nice courses

Staff were fantastic, helpful and nothing too much trouble. Great location and facilities

No complaints whatsoever about our accommodation and the stay Bar price is a little pricey, food excellent.

Luxury modern hotel, pleasant, helpful staff

After 4 postponements for our stay due to Covid lockdowns 8 of us finally enjoyed our golfing break at Carden. Many thanks to Matthew (Your Golf Travel) for updating our booking several times over the last 2 years. Beautiful hotel & vast surroundings. Staff were very helpful both in hotel & pro shop.Standard evening menu was very good as was breakfast buffet. All contributed to an enjoyable golf break.

Fabulous venue. All facilities were first class and must commend the staff both in the hotel and in the pro shop for an extremely friendly and professional service. Well done to all and many thanks.

I cannot rate this hotel highly enough. Everything is superb and especially the staff as they are very helpful. Should be 6 stars !!

Great hotel, staff very friendly and helpful, but the restaurant food very poor, all the time there never manage to get a warm fried egg, always cold, even straight from the kitchen, the standard of all the food very poor.

Great venue maintained to high standard of hotel.

Excellent welcome,Rooms clean tidy spacious very impressed. Restaurant service and food very good and well organised. The Cheshire /Nicklaus course was in very good condition and a credit to the green keepers.please pass that on. The only issue I have is we felt that we were very Rushed on both courses due the vast volume of golfers between tee off time. On the hold very impressed and a happy customer

Great venue unfortunately two holes were closed due to maintenance

Very comfortable love the rooms with balcony, nice food and great breakfast

The hotel is delightful and the staff helpful and attentive.

fantastic staff great facilities great food

could not fault this hotel other than the bar prices but the staff and food was great

A very comfortable clean hotel and very friendly staff.

The hotel and the facilities were excellent really enjoyed staying there and all the staff were great.

Overall hotel met expectations and had no major issues, Food and beverages were over priced

24 of us for my 40th birthday. Got food poisoning. Unable to have breakfast on the Monday in time for tee off. Cheshire course is a disgrace, Nicklaus is playable. Staff generally poor (excludes check in desk) Rooms the only positive although my TV didn’t work.

The accommodation was well organised and the rooms were very clean

Excellent hotel and facilities. The only downside was the cost of food, drinks, etc. However I suppose you have to be prepared to pay a premium price for what is a top class facility.

Excellent

Found a massive increase, seems everything within the hotel food and drink were not value for money I can see why people go abroad We go golfing in Portugal every year for the money spent in the Hotel we could have an extra week

Lovely hotel in beautiful grounds. Two excellent golf courses, with great service form the golfing staff. Food very good apart from one meal but the price of that was quickly refunded. Rooms facing the golf course are beautiful. Not the cheapest place but worth the money, will definitely visit again.

Great hotel not the cheapest in the world but everyone was very helpful. The package price of dinner bed and breakfast only gives you £25 a night off the restaurant menu which doesn’t give you a lot to choose from. The hole courses were good apart from we were a 4 ball in buggies stuck behind a 2 ball in a buggy withe probably 6 more 2 balls behind us why can’t they pair people up to 4 balls.

Great hotel with excellent facilities.

Excellent on all fronts and will definately revisit in future.

Really great hotel and restaurant very good food and service. Definitely recommend.

Fantastic hotel, room and facilities. Only area for improvement was the dinning experience with small portions for the main and staff not quite sure what they were doing and if another roll (with soup) is allowed.

Fabulous stay with no negative comments.

Overall really enjoyable stay, quality of the pint from the hotel bar was woeful and stopped the stay from receiving full marks

5 star for sure. Highly recommended with a great restaurant for dinner and breakfast

The hotel and staff were all very polite and helpful, as for the value for money , you can't knock it. We paid £6pp extra to move are booking from the belfry in March , to this hotel in July and got two evening meals as well , we would have been b&b at the belfry. As for your golf travel . Excellent as usual I always use John mc guffie and have always had excellent help and advice 10/10

We are regulars to this hotel and we are never disappointed rooms are always clean and well presented. The staff in all departments are polite and helpful, food is well presented and of good quality.

Food and drink a bit on the expensive side but did not detract from our wonderful experience11

Excellent

Our experience was very good, quiet so we could adjust our tee times to suit the weather.

Food was poor. Breakfast that was brought to you was cold! Choice of the set meal was very limited! Went for the Al la carte on the second day most of us and they have a menu that is already populated for your sweets. they tries to charge everyone who had a steak instead for the sweets as they just brought the out. Placed in a room out of site from other guest at the end of the restaurant.

Very well organised in this COVID climate

absolutely first class resort, the staff, the food, the facilities and the golf courses amazing

Would have been good if we actually got the rooms we paidfor

Considering the covid restrictions the experience was very good.Breakfast and dinner was a bit rushed due to golf tee offs and the new covid closing times but otherwise it was an enjoyable weekend.

Very enjoyable and easy experience.

Excellent hotel and staff, the quality of the food was first class. The Estate View rooms are large, spacious and have great views over the Nicklaus course.

Fantastic Hotel & Excellent Service

Hotel facilities were perfect, very comfy beds for a great nights sleep. Staff were very helpful and friendly.

Food and drink overpriced even for a hotel but not unexpected

Everything good only problem was fine dining in restaurant which didn't suit my wife and I and wasn't good value for us.

Delightful hotel with extremely helpful staff. A most enjoyable stay.

Beautiful hotel in a fabulous setting but disappointed with the golf experience. The greens were not in very good condition. I played here a few years ago and they were much better then. Also, there was no course management, we were behind several groups of hackers with no course etiquette, consequently me and my mate had one five and a half hour round and one four and three quarters.

Great place didn’t stay in hotel we stayed in one of the apartments that’s was excellent very comfortable and all you needed, bit of a walk from the hotel, we eat in the vines restaurant food good & staff friendly. But got woken by a few lady guests and men friends laughing and drinking till about 1am they had no respect for the other guests in the apartment block. So a very bad night had by all.

Staff were very polite and helpful room was realy great very spacious and clean overall it was excellent

Very nice hotel . Friendly and helpful staff. Nice room. All good

Quality but bar prices a little steep. All meals were very good . Decent choices but £25 allowance limited these. Upgraded without cost to courtyard room which was great - small private balcony for drinks etc. Nice.

Great hotel. We were a mixed couples party of 10, and have had an annual trip for the last five years to different golf resorts. Everyone said the hotel was the best yet! One night wasn’t enough to enjoy the full facilities. Great rooms and good food. Ate well for the £25 allowance included in YGT package.

Absolutely fist class venue

Excellent hotel, good food and friendly staff

Great facilities, helpful & friendly staff in all departments of the Hotel

lovely hotel, we went as a group of 8 on a golfing weekend and were all impressed with the facilities, staff and general standard of the hotel.

Nearly everything was spot on. Rooms, staff and quality were excellent. Having an agreement for a 3 course meal off the menu, we were restricted to £25 maximum spend per person. This equates to less than 2 courses depending on your choice and certainly not 3 courses.

Could not fault accommodation, a quality 4**** hotel. Everyone helpful, well trained and polite. Only complaint was that drink prices were excessive

Comfortable hotel with good facilities, only downside was the prices at the bar

Very good but some of the party found the food average only. Excellent breakfast for all.

Very relaxing stay in excellent facilities.

Fantastic hotel staff were very helpful all in all a great place would highly recommend

Was not made aware we had to use Matt's off tee, Matt's off fareway, greens spiked and lots of sand on them

A couple of holes had very difficult (bordering on unfair) pin positions. That said very enjoyable golf.

Quiet at the time of year we played so a very leisurely stroll round. Greens were in very good condition.

Beautiful golf course with just the right amount of challenge. Greens were excellent for the time of year and the fairways, although wet, were not sodden/soggy meaning it wasn't impossible to hit the ball!!

There were a few bare patches on fairways following the early-season drought, but that was the only slight issue. Greens were lovely for putting, with well-kept bunkers and superb views throughout.

A very memorable back nine (particularly the last 4 holes). The par 3 15th is scenic in every direction!

A nice course with some well-thought out holes.

Another great course.

We only managed 9 holes on this course as the weather was horrendous - however we walked most of the back 9 and the course overall looks very impressive.

Unfortunately the weather was really bad so couldnt play 18

Played well on Cheshire,

Played ok first day on Nicklaus

Also a nice course, very dry because of the recent weather but greens were still lovely! Imagine some of the holes would be much harder with the water in wetter months

Nice track, greens were fast and tricky which made for some fun putts

A great challange

Very Good but slow due to competitions and larger groups playing in front of you

On Sunday it was extremely slow, we walked in after 14 holes as it had already taken over 4 hours & our swings were gone & we had to check in & change & be in time for dinner. Sunday was far better albeit slow but that was expected.

As Cheshire review

Through no one’s fault, the course was parched due to lack of rain, but the greens were in excellent condition despite this. Great layout, challenging at times, but hugely enjoyable

Best course I have played. Even better than the Belfry!!

Tough course (based on what we normally play) but it was in outstanding condition. Loved every minute.

Again great course greens challenging

Great course and greens in excellent condition

disappointing ,work going on all over the course.. PLAYED BEFORE and in my opinion the course is going downhill.

nothing exciting.

Lot tougher than the Nicholas But still great course Lot tighter with the tree line But still avoid the hazards you enjoy it

Loved it open not to many trees put plenty bunkers to catch you out if you find t hem shot 85 gross back 9 loved it

Nice looking course

Bunkers were challenging

Our society scores were lower on Jack nicholas course even though shorter than Cheshire off yellows!! Again very good condition taking into account lack of rain

Really good course well looked after bearing in mind the lack of rain for fairways

Loved this course, it has a brilliant back nine holes, with lots of elevation change. Fairways could have been greener but we are in the middle of a UK heatwave. Couldn't fault the greens which were superb.

Loved this course, some brilliant Match Play holes to play, plenty of risk reward, taking on the bunkers and water hazards. Fairways could have been greener but we are in the middle of a UK heatwave. Couldn't fault the greens which were superb.

an easier course but still not easy. but very enjoyable

a hard but fair course , some very long and difficult pin locations , hard but very enjoyable course

Group of 4 all playing off 14. This is tighter than the Nicholas course but some great holes. Lots of irons off the tee. Will definitely play again.

Great condition. Wider than the Cheshire course so more options for the driver. A lot of bunkers (I found most of them). Consistent greens that were firm but not to fast.

Same as above excellent

Excellent

Fabulous course again greens a bit slow but a fantastic layout well worth a visit in a word stunning

This course was well worth the visit great challenges greens were a bit slow but generally a great challenge

Excellent condition and facilities

Quick round as out early and as a two ball were let through

Very slow play ….a Marshall should have come round to speed up play and golfers should be reminded they have only 3 mins to find a ball not 13!!

Again an absolutely beautiful course. Two courses that were totally different in their outlay and challenges.

A beautiful course. A pleasure to play.

Very slow,very busy

Excellent condition

Another great course. Abit easier than the Cheshire but loads of bunkers to navigate around plus some great holes with water.

Great course. Really enjoyed it. Back 9 holes were fantastic to play

A superbe course with amazing greens

Easier slope rating but still plenty of interesting holes. Views from our group were mixed as to which was their preferred course. Comments on course conditions as above.

No complaints from our group of either of the courses. Tees and green surrounds a little scruffy but fairways and greens good. 10 minute intervals works well. we were never held up.

Just opened that day

Great

Had a great time but unfortunately the weather was against us . Half of the greens had been hollowtined so we didn't see it at its best. Definitely worth a second visit.

Greens were brilliant! The course was in excellent condition with lots of bunkers 🙈 Definitely worth a visit .

Two very enjoyable days of golf helped by beautiful weather.

Very welcoming staff. Special mention for Tom the Starter. Recent greens work made them unpredictable. Bunkers, bunkers, bunkers!

Lovely setting very well manicured just one issue on first round as we were pushed along by the half way house staff saying playing slow and then again three or four holes later but no other fellow golfers had an issue I pointed out after to the pro shop we didn't realise it was a race

good condition even for the time of year

Great condition and excellent greens and clubhouse

Lovely course in all respects. Good layout and in good condition for the time of year.

Loved the course from beginning to end. Well thought out being both challenging but fair. Excellent condition for the time of year. Would definitely like to return.

Rained off on the last day

Superb course condition of course 1st class Highly recommended

1st class course right up ther with best av played

greens good, long walks between tee's easier than the Cheshire course

beautiful course, setting fantastic. fairways good greens excellent and fast

Very nice course with different challenges to the Cheshire.

Very nice layout and a decent test for all levels.

again so so enjoyable

we all enjoyed both courses , were in very good condition and challenged our golf skills and all had a great time

Played very well ,enjoyed the company and the course very much

Didn't play to good first day on it, far better second day

Great condition some lovely shaped holes and quirky par threes

Lovely course in great condition Back nine hard!!

Lots of water on this course and some very challenging holes. Excellent having a halfway house (with toilets) which was accessible at both the 6th and 13th holes. Even though we teed off relatively early we got very held up towards the end of the round.

A delightful course - well maintained, but with tricky bunkers and lots of trees! As a 2 ball we got round quickly because we were off early and played through the only 3 ball group ahead of us. There was a starter, and someone going round on a buggy to check the pace of play, so all very well organised.

Great course quite open but plenty sand and water hazards to catch any wayward shots

Played it twice unfortunately on the first day had a junior comp in front so was very slow But second time of playing it no problem some nice holes

More strategic golf required for this course. Great placing of bunkers but the sand was a bit lumpy. A long walk from green to tee on some holes and much flatter. Still very enjoyable to play as it was our first experience of the Nicklaus Course. A proper golf track.

Lovely views from many of the tees. Playing quite long due to the length of rough and speed of greens. Probably due the amount of rainfall in previous weeks. Buggies were needed for the older golfers. Bunkers had very long grass at the front which made them extra hard for the less experienced golfers. We had great weather on the day and all golfers enjoyed their round. Halfway house was well serviced with plenty on offer.

Better than Nicklaus but still maintained for high number of golfers. Some interesting holes here.

Obviously maintained for high levels of golf. A good layout though.

Great two days! The course was very good a decent test and in good condition.

Chalk and Cheese, Cheshire and Nicklaus, 2 very different courses that offer something for all standards of golfers. Go off line on the Cheshire course and you're forced to take your medicine, there's no trees 90% air here, not even the sun can find gaps. The Nicklaus course is not so frightening on the tee, more parkland, but still offering a challenge for the full 18 holes, the 18th in particular, a truly magnificent finishing hole to remember any visit by. Bravo

what a fantastic course, breathtakingly beautiful, so many feature holes, fairways and greens in fantastic condition, my only regret was that it got the better of me, but I will be back to tackle it again

A very nice course, bunkers not as good as The Cheshire but overall a very enjoyable course.

Course was excellent, alot of societies and visiting parties hence the slow round. Overall an excellent choice

Another lovely course although I personally preferred the cheshire course. Again I would recommend a buggy as its a long walk between alot of yhe holes.Greens were great on both courses and very true.

Beautifully presented course with great greens. I would recommend a buggy as there are a lots of holes with a long walk between them.There are alot of blind holes so playing the course twice would also help.

Easier than Cheshire,but still challenging with water hazards.

Superb condition,even better when you can get your ball on the fairway.

The resorts' 'signature course' and a good test of golf. Played longer than yardage suggests. Many well designed interesting holes provided a good challenge to all but still playable for higher handicaps. Only comment is green were a bit slower than may have been expected for time of year

As a hotel course. A better than average experience. Greens slow but undulating. Very busy at weekends

Great course in fantastic condition Plenty water to navigate around Would definitely play again

Course in fantastic condition Considering there were quite a few golfers on the course it Took us just over 4 hrs for the round Would play again

Fantastic course! One of the nicest I’ve played. Would recommend buying the course guide!

Slow round, reasonable condition course. Decent track but nothing to write home about.

little bit easier than the cheshire course but still a good challenge.

course in fantastic condition.

Fairways, bunkers very soft due to recent heavy rainfall, saying that though had a wonderful time playing on this course.

Very enjoyable , suits low handicap golfers.

Stunning course, never disappoints

Great course condition despite some heavy rain in the days before the trip

Course was very wet, due to very heavy rain in advance of our visit

Superb.

Superb.

The course was well maintained but we had to walk off one round given it took 3 hours to complete 10 holes

Considering the weather over last few months.staff did very well to get the course in a good condition. No complaints.

Very enjoyable course good condition

Despite challenging weather the course was in good condition. All credit to the greens staff. Lovely clubhouse and helpful staff

We were disappointed,in the fact the Nickolas course was closed. This was due to the weather which is out of your control.buggies were on . Naturally sticking to paths. We played both days ,will a little shower on the second day. This didn't spoil our weekend.

The course was so wet it really shouldn’t have been open. The fairways were so muddy and slippery it made it difficult to play as nowhere was dry enough that your feet weren’t in the wet. A lot of the bunkers were full of water and there was standing water on the course too. We’d like to play in better conditions

The course was extremely wet and slippery, which didn’t make it so enjoyable. The pace of play was very slow despite the Marshalls best efforts to speed things up - so expect at least 5 hours for the round

5 hours too long. Seemed to be caused by length of rough & people constantly looking for balls. Course otherwise excellent & lovely to play,. Just cut the rough please!

Scores again mainly due to weather.

Scores were due to the weather conditions.

I loved this course. I liked the fact that it had more natural features to observe rather than being completely landscaped.

It was a great course challenging but a pleasure to play.

Fantastic course overall in very good condition. For my money much better than the Nicklaus course. The back 9 in particular was stunning with some cracking views and great holes

Very nice course overall, no ‘bad’ holes and a couple of very good ones. All bunkers were waterlogged which was a shame

Cheshire course was well maintained although fairways had suffered with the weather with bare patches. Nicklaus course was closed for maintenance

The course was closed. I played here a month ago and it’s a beautiful course

Enjoyed the course but it was very busy as the as the Nicklaus course was closed. Staff in the club house and restaurant were very helpful.

Easier than the Cheshire as it’s wider fairways and bigger greens to hit!

Tough course! Especially finishing holes

We played this on our last day and found it a little harder, finding our way in to a few bunkers

Quite a long course but we played it twice and really enjoyed it

Excellent greens

Good pace,

Good experience playing the Cheshire course. Personally I preferred the Nicklaus course. Greens were challenging as they are well protected by bunkers, so have to be careful on approach to the greens.

Nice course, quite open but a few challenging holes. Recommended & will definitely play again. Pace of play was just right. Great clubhouse & staff. Greens were really fast & in great condition.

The course gets better every year. It’s now mature and in great condition. We were playing holiday golf so used the yellow and red tees which were perfect. The blue and white tees looked a little more challenging. The greens and bunkers were in exceptional condition.

The course is in excellent condition. A few of the tee boxes were showing signs of wear but generally these were fine. The fairways were well maintained and the greens were some of the best I have played on this year.

Played this course twice. First time brilliant. Second time ladies competition very very slow 4 lots on the tee at one point. Shame really spoke to the Marshall and he said sorry. Spoilt the day really. This needs to be noted for the future. Only thing to wing about .

Excellent in all categories

For a parkland course, it had good variety of holes, beautifully landscaped. Excellent greens. Plenty of thinking required to navigate many of the holes

Another good course some very testing holes enjoyed the both days

Played it before but not in 30 degree heat but still very enjoyable

Exactly the same as the Cheshire course.

Both courses were in very good condition were challenging without destroying anyone confidence.

We enjoyed the Cheshire course, particularly the back nine.

Course was great. Well worth the money

A great course, Shame the Nicholas course was closed due to weather. So all traffic was put on the Cheshire course but still in great condition considering the amount of people on the course

Again a tricky course - we got used to the play

We were held up by a 4 ball (2 couples) who were messing about even though there were lots of notices regarding slow play- otherwise we thoroughly enjoyed the game

Excellent course. All our party of 8 loved it & felt it was far superior to Nicklaus course next door. Closing holes got better & better.

Disappointing. Seemed quite new/ immature

Lovely course, challenging, greens just had work done on them and quite bobbly.

Fantastic course, quite tight in places, lovely condition

Received a phone call on the Wednesday to say greens not in great shape, was annoyed as was to late to do anything. However the greens were in good conditions bar a few minor blemishes that we barely noticed. Greens Played nice a quick and really enjoyable. The round was just under 5 hours but this was what we had been told. Due to the volume on the course has to be expected

Being a high handicap the course was abit of a challenge but the entire group loved the course. Be a doddle if hit straight.

Excellent

Excellent

Great lay out, potentially great course. However on our visit their the 7th was being heavily renovated (so challenging par 4 was now an easy par three) and all the greens were heavily infected and so very rough. No useful recompense was offered

Beautiful course, challenging holes but opportunities to score too. Great golf for all standards

The greens were not up to standard due to a disease on them. The pro shop gave us a 2 for 1 voucher to compensate us. The rest of the course was in great condition with lots of bunkers. Pro shop were so helpful.

Nice course with some good holes

Very enjoyable. Too many bunkers!!!!!

The professionals apologised for the state of the greens as they had a disease on them but they were in the process of treating them. The man at the halfway house was very friendly and helpful.

Unfortunately the greens had a disease which is no fault of the grounds personnel, vouchers given to come back and play again. A long course for walking ( although that maybe because we walked the Cheshire course the day before). Again beautiful surroundings & well established

Beautiful course but fairways just a little dry with recent weather however greens kept beautifully. Stunning scenery and the course was challenging enough to keep it very interesting

Overall excellent just the problem on the Nicklaus

Greens had disease but it happens everywhere just unlucky

Course was good, more strategy required on this course but some lovely holes Condition was not as good as the Cheshire and the greens appeared to have some disease. Would still recommend it though

Course was magnificent, with lovely views across Cheshire. Greens were in good condition but not fast

This course was amazing with some really difficult holes. We both enjoyed this course and would rate it amongst the best for the way it was set out. Did need some things done to make it better but the dry weather is probably responsible for some of it.

Not in the best condition at the moment. Needed some tlc.The tees were patchy and the whole course was below the standard of a good golf course.

Great course but greens needed some TLC

Great course

good course, not as good as cheshire but still al enjoyed it

loved it, greens hard but true.

Much easier course to play. Greens ran well but a fair few of them had disease that made the balls bobble a lot on the farthest few holes. Some great holes though and lovely in general

Lovely course, definitely a course of two halves. First half is a parkland course, then the back nine enters the wooded bits and is far more spectacular. Fairways had their drainage cut into over the front nine when we were there so weren’t in great condition

Fairways not great bunks not kept great needs some tlc but still nice to play

Great course well maintained bunkers not great needs more sand but very impressive

Same as above

Great golf courses, only issue not enough sand in the bunkers and dome of the tees are poor

Once again we enjoyed the course and we will be returning to play these courses again.

Just need to be careful as when you hit a good shot and your ball goes out of sight it could be in a hazard or long grass but it was a lovely course, we will return to play again.

A challenge for a mid handicapper. Needed a tight game to do well.Greens very true and well prepared.Recommend a course guide for this course as their are a lot of hidden hazards not apparent off the tees. Thoroughly enjoyed the challenge here.

Good challenge of golf on an excellent course. Round was a bit slow due to Nicklaus course being booked out for corporate competition. Greens very true and receptive.

another great day out, some long holes and one or two challenging holes. great condition and a beautiful spot. Staff were spot on and very helpful.

we picked a beautiful day so we were very lucky. No Pressure from either direction. lost a few balls on the fringes which was frustrating but then that is down to me ! but overall a brilliant course.

A lovely golf course , easy to walk round and very picturesque. The greens were good quality , and pretty consistent . We really enjoyed playing this course ,

We played the Cheshire twice during our stay , the first day was a Sunday so the course was understanderbly busy. There was signs of some drainage work on some fairways which made them harder to play off and the greens were very unpredictable and slow . However two days later we played again and the greens were so different , so much better ,maybe just needed a cut and an iron ? overall very enjoyable golf course -we will return

The standards of the course was far below our expectations!

The greens were below standard expected at Carden Park
