Events And Functions at Saddleworth Golf Club

Some occasions deserve more than a pub back room or a hotel function suite. The Lordsmere Suite at Saddleworth Golf Club gives you a proper venue — with views across the Saddleworth moors, food prepared by the team behind The Waggon Inn and Salt, and a team who want your event to go as well as you're hoping it will.

A space that sets the tone

The Lordsmere Suite seats between 90 and 100 guests depending on your layout — with the 1904 Bar & Lounge available alongside for arrivals, drinks, and informal mingling. The suite leads directly out onto the patio, and the views across the valley give your guests something to talk about before the food even arrives.

There's free parking on site and the venue is easy to reach from across Saddleworth, Oldham, and the surrounding area.

Food that's actually worth remembering

The catering is handled by the team behind The Waggon Inn and Salt in Uppermill — so you already know the standard. We offer a range of menu formats to suit your event, your guests, and your budget.

Choose from a formal three-course sit-down dinner, a hot fork buffet, finger buffet, hog roast, or a more informal sop supper. We'll help you pick the right format and build the menu around you.

Gluten free and dairy free options are available. All allergen information is provided on request.
