A True Heathland Challenge & In the Top 10 Best Golf Courses in Lancashire!

Pleasington is already recognised as the No 1 heathland course in Lancashire but we still want to make it even better and break into the Top 100 courses in the UK and Ireland. We are undergoing a revamp as part of the Good2Great Project run by Ken Moodie where over £1million will be invested into the club over 5 years.

The £1m Good2Great redevelopment programme has seen a huge amount of work on tees, bunkers, fairways & greens to truly take the course to a championship level and restore views of the stunning rolling Lancashire countryside. We are into our 4th year of redevelopment and will be working on 4 holes specifically this Winter. The four holes that are being worked on are the 5th, 12th, 14th & 15th. This newsletter will give you a run down on what we are doing to these holes individually and hopefully it will have you eager to visit when the course is ready in April.

Pleasington….always a pleasure.
