Helsby Golf Club

Helsby Golf Club is situated in leafy Cheshire, only 7 miles from the Roman city of Chester. Founded in 1901, the 18-hole par-70 parklands course was designed by James Braid. The original course was only 9 holes long and is today's front 9. The original clubhouse was on the opposite side of Towers Lane to today's clubhouse, located close to the 5th tee. When the old clubhouse burned down in 1970, one of the only things left after the fire was the frame of the old piano. This was buried next to the 2nd green - hence the hump now referred to as 'The Piano'. The second 9 holes were added in the late 60's/early 70's to make a challenging but enjoyable par 70 course over 6,275 yards. The course is generally described as parkland; mostly flat and with an interesting complement of trees and lakes.

Helsby offers superb facilities in beautiful surroundings that can be enjoyed by members, visitors and societies alike. The bar and restaurant offers magnificent views over the course. It provides a welcome retreat after a round of golf or if you just feel like popping in for a drink or a meal in very pleasant surroundings. And prices at the bar are very attractive too! Visitors are very welcome to come and play at Helsby.
