Challenging course

Will definitely play here again.

Unfortunately holes 8-12 were closed when we arrived. And a lot of slow dog walkers around.

Great layout - played in the frost

This course has magnificent views and a nice varied hole layout. Unfortunately when we played the greens were frozen solid and their were only 12 holes open. But to be expected at the end of December. This course is usually great value for money and well worth a trip.

Course was very heavy and tee conditions were a bit shabby - 2 holes closed without notice. Greens very good but it felt like a slog.

Blowing a Gale!

I love this course it is a great leveller when the wind is blowing a gale in your face at the majority of tees. On this day both the group in front and the group behind gave in and returned to the clubhouse as the wind got stronger.

We stuck at it and in the end posted reasonable scores. A welcome pint in the friendly clubhouse afterwards topped off which due to lockdown will be our last round of 2020

Wet day for golf

Chose to play here because on past experience this moor top course would be one of the only dry ones available and I was correct. The fairways and greens were unbelievably dry although our balls picked up some mud.. this is always a tough track to play especially when the wind blows as it did for us. My only condemnation was the extremely slow and selfish play by the four-ball that teed off at 9.10 , two groups in front of us. We walked off after 16 holes when there were 5 separate groups stuck behind these idiots. The group immediately behind them told us these members do this every time they play. Why any golf club allows this is beyond me and because this has happened we will never play here again. Shame. Up to club and members to sort this out.

Solid overall course

Good overall course, course in great condition considering the weather, greens ran well and some lovely holes - a hard challenge for a bogey golfer in windy conditions.

Enjoyable Saturday

It was the first time we had played this course and although slightly held up by the pace of play ahead, we came off the course having thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

My only downer was that the signature hole is too early in the round as I would have loved to have another go at it when properly warmed up

If you hit the fairways which unbelievably I managed too, the course plays a lot easier but if you miss and go in the thick rough you have lost your ball!

The staff during these covid times were very friendly and helpful and I will certainly play this course again. Very happy to recommend

Yorkshire at its finest

We have scrolled past Baildon GC all summer in favour of nearby Bingley, Shipley etc. How good can it be for £12? After the first hole transports you to the second tee, it answers that question. Glorious views, fun routing, lots of variety and a fair test. Members and staff were very friendly, it’s obvious that pride is taken in welcoming visitors. If you’re scared away by the wind, keep an eye on the weather and pick a nice day to give it a try. We’ll be back.

Great value

Played this course for the first time on a beautiful day.Initially you feel like you’re in the middle of a council estate but it’s soon apparent that the whole course opens out to a magnificent heathland vista.Visitors pay £15 and it will be the best value golf they are ever likely to pay.

Amazing views and amazing rough

I played this course for the first time, amazing views of the surrounding area. Greens and fairways in great condition. I didn't see any staff as I'd started before they opened up. Overall really enjoyed it, obviously it was quite windy, but that's to be expected on top of a hill.

If you can hit the fairways you can score well here. Pace of play was abit slow as I was behind a 2 ball but as it was first time I didn't mind following them around. Great value for £16 and will probably play again next week. Think this will be a course that will stay open year round with not too many issues as the wind will dry the course in the winter.

Great layout

Very interesting layout. Quite a hard walk being on a hill and wind was brutal. You see everything at baildon- bike riders, dog walkers, groups of people on horseback, walkers, you aren’t alone at any stage. However it didn’t detract from the round.

I will say baildon have some condition issues- I’m not an expert but the fairways were not ideal, but it has been a strange year with furloughed staff, no rain for months then a couple of months with tons of rain.

I paid £13 for the round which despite the conditions on a few holes was outstanding value. This is visually a great course with possibly the best views I’ve ever seen on an inland course.

I also give baildon credit for lowering green fees and memberships this year due to reflect the conditioning - most courses don’t do that. This one should be on your bucket list if you live in Yorkshire

Challenging but brilliant

Very happy with the golf at Baildon. A challenging course due to its narrow fairways however, well thought out course. Amazing back drop and scenery. I would definitely recommend.

Straight off the tee

The course is not overly long, however if you don’t hit the fairway you are in a world of trouble with heather lining every fairway. This is definitely a course for straight hitters and rewards course management. The course was in great condition although the greens were on the slow side, there was a strong wind which really challenged us, and knowing the area, will be a factor whenever you play. The views from the course are amazing and the members were friendly. I would highly recommend the course but remember if you bring your slice you better bring a lot of balls!
