DESCRIPTION:

Located in the hills of Wigan, Dean Wood Golf Club is a charming 18-hole, par 71 course set within 120 acres of scenic parkland. Established in 1922, the course features rolling fairways, mature trees, and challenging greens that offer a rewarding test of skill. The terrain provides a mix of uphill, downhill, and side-hill lies, ensuring that no two holes are the same. The signature hole is the par-4 15th, which plays downhill with stunning views of the surrounding countryside.

Dean Wood is accessible via the M6 and M58, making it a convenient destination for golfers from nearby towns such as Wigan and Bolton. The surrounding area includes the historic Haigh Woodland Park and the Leeds and Liverpool Canal, perfect for those looking to explore beyond the course.

Two contrasting 9's

Dean Wood is an established course with two contrasting 9's .The 1st9 is mature tree lined parkland course with undulating fairways with fairway bunkers. The 2nd9 is completely different basically 9 holes in a valley but not exhausting walk. Which I found a challenge. Lateral streams & not a flat piece of ground. Therefore course management comes into play? Greens were good & ran true. Fairways were in good condition as well.
With driving nets & practise putting chipping greens. Good Club house & Pro Shop with friendly staff. Overall a very good course will definitely play again and worth a visit
