About the course

Lobden is a moorland course founded in 1888 high in the South Pennines, measuring 5,661 yards and par 70. Exposed to persistent westerly winds with thick rough as its main defence, the layout challenges all ability levels, whilst views from elevated points encompass the Peak District and distant Manchester landmarks.
