The course
Short enough to enjoy, sharp enough to matter
Marland is where Link Golf UK began: a Rochdale course that was due to close in 2019 and has been open every season since. Shorter holes, small greens and a card you can actually score on.
A good first eighteen for newer golfers, and a quick round for everyone else.
“Genuinely blown away by the value of this course. Played this morning and thoroughly enjoyed every hole. Some truly stunning scenery and pleasant staff made this a course that we will definitely return to.”
New to golf
The easiest place to start
No handicap, no dress code and clubs to hire at the shop. Beginner sessions run on weekend mornings, and the front nine is a sensible first loop.
