Club Cheadle Hulme

Club Cheadle Hulme sits just outside Macclesfield and punches well above its weight as a proper sporting hub. It's a members' club with tennis courts, a golf course, and squash facilities - the kind of place where you'd expect to bump into half the town's competitive players on a Friday night. The golf course is the main draw, genuinely well-maintained with decent views across Cheshire countryside. Tennis courts are available depending on membership, and there's a clubhouse where you can grab food and watch matches if you're not playing yourself.

For a family staying at nearby Eastwood End Caravan Park, this works best if you're keen golfers or tennis players with guest privileges - you won't get much out of a casual visit without being invited by a member. Keen golfers should ring ahead to check temporary memberships or guest rates. The grounds themselves are pleasant to walk around, but it's not the sort of place you'd visit purely for a stroll. If you're seriously into golf and want to play while basing yourself in the Macclesfield area, it's worth investigating what guest options exist. Allow a few hours if you're playing a round, or just an hour if you're visiting as a guest spectator.
