Perfect weather

Lovely day out in the hills

Great course, lots of shorter Par 4s but when they are up the side of a mountain they play much longer. Had a really great day, tricky greens and steep slopes make it super challenging but the views around will keep you smiling even when your game lets you down.

Probably one for the summer and even then the wind was blowing. If we lived much closer we'd be here all the time, it's a course you really want to properly get to know.

Fantastic Vale and course

One of the best golf courses I've played this year, great quality, greens and fairways immaculate considering the weather.

Fantastic layout with some great holes that make you think about your shots. Definitely one to return to.

Stunning scenery as well

Excellent deal and excellent course

Took advantage of a hot deal for £20, joined up with 3 other golfers who I did not know but were excellent company for 18. Course played really well, challenging in places and good opportunities to get par’s.

Would definitely recommend.

Superb course

Magnificent course, the best views on any course I've played in the North of England and a true test of golf.

There are no bad holes on this course and every hole is different.

One or two blind tee shots and its a quite undulating course.

No for those who want an easy walk or beginners.

Friendly staff and a warm welcome in the bar .

Perfect conditions

We played this on a sunny April afternoon. The course was in excellent condition. The greens were running true and every hole was a great test of golf. All golfers would enjoy this course but perhaps higher handicappers ( over 15) may struggle as accuracy off the tee is important .

Excellent value for money and all my playing partners felt the same .

PLAY THIS COURSE...

This review is from a mid-handicapper who enjoys the journey more than the destination and I would recommend this course without reservation. That said, my playing partner is off 6 and he loved it too. We are going to play it again now we know the course; there are several blind shots, the greens are subtly formed so every putt makes you think and think again... Off the course the staff and club members are delightful and the catering very enjoyable. Go and play a wonderful course, if I lived within ten miles, I would be a member!
