Ben Rhydding Golf Club

I really loved playing this very interesting course. It’s challenging but so much fun. There’s some very interesting blind holes to play.

The course was good and challenging, would recommend to the more well experienced players though, also the course could use more clear signage.

Was extremely disappointed with this golf course, the layout is the worst I have ever played on. No flow, and several holes were extremely difficult to locate the tees and even the pins. No staff either, so no score cards/course maps were provided. No amenities either. Some holes you play twice from different tees (same pin), and you couldn’t see if anyone else was playing at the same time (holes 1 and 10), we bumped into another group in the middle of the fairway.

The course was in good condition and kept well, it was our first time playing the course and wouldn’t be in a rush to go back due to the layout There was no signs telling you which way the next hole is and a hole layout on each hole. So was hard to know where to go.

Second time playing 18 holes with one of the hot deals at £13.99.

Course layout is confusing. Could do with a map on the back of the score cards and better signage.

We did have member on our second visit come to tell us that we shouldn’t be playing the far green on the first and they are getting annoyed at non members using it. No signs I could see to say otherwise and the green keeper didn’t seem to be bothered when out cutting the grass.

Not the friendliest interaction.

Overall would definitely be back. Challenging little course with great greens. The views are amazing, looking forward to getting back when’s it’s dry and the sun makes an appearance.

The course itself was in quite good condition but the signage was virtually non existent. It was difficult figuring out where to go next on finishing a hole. Most of the holes you tee off blind due to either the hills or some other obstacle. The course is a very compact double 9 so don’t expect too much variety. All in all I wouldn’t recommend it when there are so may other courses around. The only redeeming feature was the price but whether that makes it good value is debatable.

This course is hilly. Don't play if you want a casual game without losing your breath. Spent most of the outing pushing my trolley up hills and trying to compose myself before teeing off.

Confusing when working out where the next hole is and bizarre having two different tees for hole 1/10.. Causes problems when people tee off from both at the same time. Sign posting could be vastly improved. Most holes have blind tee shots as well, so if you don't know the course, you're guessing where to aim.

Came across a few groups playing ahead of us / across us who were quite rude and seemed to think they owned the course. Entitled, arrogant behaviour which is enough to put me off playing this course again. A shame, but suppose it's to be expected playing in Ben Rhydding/Ilkley.

Greens weren't great and most had worn patches that had to be navigated to attempt putts.

Overall, I can't recommend the course. Don't bother. There are better courses for the price.

We arrived early so didn’t expect amenities to be open. The course was in amazing condition and played really well. Members were all really friendly but a couple of foursomes pushed in front for a comp and started on the 6th, holding us up a bit. We had a great round and the short nature of the course helps high handicappers like myself shoot low. We went round in an 87 and 85 and don’t always break 90.

A shame really. The price was the same as you get on the day so no discount or saving or offer.

I had to walk off after three holes. No maps directions or signs.

A shame really.

Lovely course with some big challenges. Great views all around, especially the views up to the Cow & Calf. The course was in great condition consider the recent snow and rain we've had, the only real issue cam with the third green which was very damp and the hole was flooded.

There were no staff to be seen at the clubhouse, nor many people on course.

Overall it made for a great round and we will be back in the spring and summer.

Good course you need to play with a member if possible could find it hard if not some blind holes but a course in good condition,could find it difficult if weather was poor but would advise visitors a must play course plenty of hills but enjoyable

Great course with interesting layout and challenging holes
