Disappointing….

I’ve played Garforth approx 10 to 15 times over the years and this latest was the worst yet. It’s potentially just the time of year but the course condition was really poor, ,especially the greens which were full of drainage holes and heavily sanded ( not mentioned when booking at £30 per round). Putting was a waste of time. Hopefully my experience was just an early season issue (if so tell people when booking!) but not sure I’d be rushing back to play here again.

Pristine condition

First time back at Garforth in about 5 or 6 years now and the course was in the best condition that I've seen it. Greens running super fast and true, fairways in excellent condition. An absolute pleasure to play here, and we will be back sooner rather than later.

Garforth GC

Fantastic day out at a great layout that was in excellent condition. Greens were fast and true and I would recommend this course to visitors as very friendly welcome from members and staff. We were 15 mins late teeing off as a competition was running behind schedule but we made up for this on the back nine which was clear. Overall a great experience.
