Course Highlights
Buxton & High Peak consistently delivers impressive course conditions, with firm greens and dry fairways holding up remarkably well even after heavy rain. Friendly pro shop staff, scenic views, and thoughtfully challenging holes make this off-the-beaten-track layout well worth the trip.

Absolute gem of a course

Just moved to Derbyshire and playing a number of courses to decide on the one to join. Played this course for the first time and was mighty impressed. 1100 ft above sea level but resembles a links course. Undulating fairways that were like a carpet, lush and soft. I expected a hilly course but it really isn’t..Some stunning holes in terms of layout that require playing for position rather than blasting your way round. First four could be a problem for those with a slice, plays alongside a road. Greens are lovely, some are challenging and a tad slow. I shot a a few over par on a still calm day. Highly recommend. I will play again.

Great quirky course

If you’re looking for something a little different, Buxton & High Peak is well worth a visit. It’s a quirky course with rolling fairways, plenty of moguls, and some deceptively tricky greens that make for a really enjoyable test of golf.

The course was in excellent condition. The fairways were superb, and the greens were outstanding overall. A couple had recently undergone some maintenance, but that was the only minor exception – the rest were absolutely mint.

The welcome in the pro shop was warm and friendly, setting the tone for a great day. After the round, the food and service in the bar were excellent, with very reasonable prices too.

All in all, this was a fantastic golfing experience. A unique, well-maintained course with great facilities and hospitality. I’d highly recommend it and will definitely be back.

Varied, pretty course with challenging par 3s

Buxton is in a pretty setting but I imagine it can feel quite exposed in bad weather. It undulates without being as steep as some Pennine courses. You can easily lose balls on the quarry holes 3-7 but the course opens out afterwards with some long par 4 and 5s. Greens have been in great condition on my three visits and it is very well maintained generally. It has a decent pro shop, with buggies and trolleys available to hire as well scoffed, snacks etc. I shall return and would definitely recommend the course.

Only 1 temp

With my own course in Sheffield on 18 temps. Me and my two brothers decided to play at Buxton & high peaks golf course. We couldn’t believe how dry and firm the greens was despite all the rain we have had. The fairways were also fairly dry and very playable. We enjoyed our round very much and will definitely be returning to play in the winter!
