Not recently. Which course the Nicklaus or the Cheshire?
Both are very good, I prefer the Cheshire more than the Nicklaus which is the more costly. The Nicklaus is a bit more "American", lots of water. The Cheshire is more British parkland with some great closing holes, especially the view on the 18th tee.

Both are very good can't pick between them. Nice clubhouse as well and very good Pro shop although a bit pricey when I went but they should have a sale on at the moment.

I really like Carden Park and always seem to play well there. I prefer the Cheshire Course out of the two but the Nicklaus is still a quality course. The 18th tee on the Cheshire is fantastic.

Played both twice and that is enough for me…
Not bad, but not great either. For a free round you can't complain mind.
I have quite a bit of time for the Cheshire, the only weak holes being the 4th & 5th, but as for the Nicklaus, jumped up American courses aren't my favourite for a start, and the Nicklaus is a poor example of one!

Never played the Nicklaus, but probably played the Cheshire around 30 times. The back nine is very good, especially the last 5/6 holes. 16 and 17 are great holes and as been said above great views from the 18th tee.

Played last year I really enjoyed the Cheshire course, interesting mix of holes.
It was blowing a gale when I played the Nicholas and I didn't play too well which can colour your impression of a course but I did like it. There are soe really good risk/reward shots which I particularly like.
Played a lovely 3 wood over the water onto the 17th green and just missed out on the eagle putt.
The main thing I found was that being able to shape tee shots comes in very hand on both courses.

Nicholas, NICHOLAS - the greatest golfer ever lived!!!! Nicklaus, my friend (not being pedantic,honest).
Impressive hitting the 17th in one though, a lot of corner to cut off, and to carry the bank and stay on.
Plop,plop the two times I've attempted it.
