What the club says: This 18 hole park land course threads its way through magnificent mature trees and provides a challenge that is mastered by few. Its unique Manor Clubhouse is surrounded by a 12th Century moat, occupied by two deceptively serene white swans.
The extended course was designed by Gaunt & Marnock and incorporates modern specification greens which provide excellent playing surfaces throughout the year.
Whilst not extremely long by modern standards the 6008 yards have stood the test of time.

Excellent Course
Played Wigan yesterday afternoon and the course was not very busy after 1pm. The course does have some strange holes with some holes crossing each other but it is easy to get round. The fairways and greens were in lovely condition considering the recent lack of rain. The tee beds were not good at all uneven and bare but that's the only downside. The outside lawn by the river for a drink after the round was also a plus. All in all a really good course.Reviewer Rating

Greens didn't seem to have been cut in a few days and very patchy. Fairways and rough not well defined and just an overall look of not being cared for like it used to

Always great to play
2nd time playing Wigan GC in an open competition. Friendly welcome in clubhouse and pro shop. Good breakfast. Good practice area. Course in great condition although a few holes had tee mats in play due to new tee beds not quite ready for use. Greens immaculate. Fairly flat course with some nice looking holes. Always worth playing Wigan.Reviewer Rating

Very good
A very nice course which is deceptively challenging (as you can see from my score!). Seriously it's a cracking course, in great condition & the greens in particular were superb.It's quite tight in places & tree lined, so it doesn't take much to be off line & in a bit of trouble. There's also the odd blind drive which I know some don't like. However don't let that put you off.
I'd heard you could clearly see the difference between the old & new 9's but I disagree, I thought they were both very good.
It's a superb layout, it's a great test of golf & its in superb condition.

A hidden gem
2nd time playing this course and even better this time around. Beautiful setting and really well kept course. Some of the fringe rough is more like actual rough but that is really nit-picking. Fairways and greens lovely. Will play again!(Round played: Aug 2019 - Score: 92 Handicap: 18.2)
