Pleasington Golf Club offers a unique and challenging golfing experience set in picturesque Lancashire countryside. The course features 18 holes laid out over 142 acres of stunning terrain1. It was originally designed by George Lowe Snr and later extended by Sandy Herd, creating a layout that offers golfers a diverse challenge.

Ken Moodie of Creative Golf Design was approached by the club to oversee extensive scrub clearance, heathland restoration, bunker renovation, and dramatic design changes to several holes, including significant improvements to holes 6, 10, and 11.

Pleasington is known for its sandy soil base, which provides excellent drainage even in wet conditions, beautifully maintained greens with well-defined aprons, a mix of ancient woodlands and open heathland, and elevation changes that add complexity to shot-making, all contributing to a diverse and challenging golfing experience.
