This is a first class course, offering a great challenge to all levels of player. Beautifully laid out in the sand based lands around this part of Nottinghamshire, it deservedly attracts top events, including the Open Final qualifier. Great value for the quality of the golf challenge. Always a friendly welcome at the clubhouse. A must for any serious golfer.

Played golf here at the weekend and I can't praise this golf club enough. A wonderful course that really tests you, especially the tee shot on the par 5, you have to keep your nerve. The greens are a real compliment to the green staff as they hold well and run well. After the golf I met up with my wife and children for lunch in the clubhouse as we had heard that you can have a carvery on a Sunday and can only say that it rates as one of the best we have had. Our compliments to the chef and catering staff and also to Gail (owner) and Richard (manager) on making us all feel very welcome and we look forward to coming again very soon

Grimsby Golf Club

A real hidden jewel in Lincolnshire. You stumble upon the impressive and distinctive clubhouse, which sits back slightly from the road in an almost understated way. You will be surprised that a golf course exists in an area which, at first glance, seems to be surrounded by houses, but be prepared as this beautiful course will take your breath away. At 6,142 yards, the course is not particularly long, but it is a demanding yet enjoyable test of your golfing skills. Established in 1922, the course is set in 123 acres of mature, undulating parkland and was designed by renowned course architect, Henry Shapland 'Harry' Colt and is unique to this area of Lincolnshire.

Cavendish Golf Club

Cavendish is recognised as one of the finest golf courses in Britain offering a great golfing experience for all. Situated in Buxton, Derbyshire, Cavendish was opened in 1925 and designed Dr Alister MacKenzie, whose list of courses includes the iconic Augusta National, Home of the Masters. Cavendish is regarded by experts to be MacKenzie’s ‘Inspiration for Augusta’ and it’s easy to see why. With undulating fairways, sloping greens and well thought out hazards, there are many holes at Cavendish that definitely mirror many of those found at Augusta National. Cavendish has been voted as a Top 100 UK Golf course for the past 4 years, and was voted as a Top 100 Fun Course to play in 2018. Cavendish is thought by many to be quite possibly the best layout in the world under 6000 yards, offering ‘sheer golfing enjoyment’.

What a course ! Cavendish is in the best condition i have seen it over the previous 40 years . There has been excellent work completed all over the course , with exceptional McKenzie testing greens . Rachel in the Pro shop is so welcoming, along with the staff in the bar and restaurant , with excellent value liquid refreshments and food. I have just re-joined the course through Play More Golf , and looking forward to the next 12 months. If you,re in the locality try this course , as you will not be disappointed.

Peak Practice is a really welcoming range with great bays, quality coaching and very friendly pricing on balls. The staff are all friendly and I can really recommend the pro lessons - I’ve really noticed an improvement in my consistency with visiting twice a week which is really useful for the convenience of having the site near to my house. Would definitely recommend to anyone in Buxton with any level of interest in golf!

North Shore Golf Club

The North Shore Golf Club, which celebrated its centenary in 2010, is situated on the Lincolnshire Coast. This James Braid designed 18 hole course is a fantastic mix of Parkland and Links golf. With views over the wash to the Norfolk coast it provides the ideal setting for the perfect round.

Reviewed By Winny1r

Just returned from an amazing weekend with 5 other lads at the golf school at North shore golf course with links golf school. Everything was spot on. The golf course here is top class and the tuition we all had from John the golf pro on the course was top class. All six of us were very much on the beginner level but after three days here with John we have all improved vastly and now actually have the skills to start to play the game properly. I'd say he has helped every single one of us to take at least ten or even fifteen shots off our game. The course itself is brilliant with a mix of links and the usual and it is in great condition. The greens are very well kept and very fast. The accommodation was directly overlooking the course, the golf school included breakfast and dinner in the club house which was decent as well. The bar has great views over looking the green on the 9th hole where you can relax with a pint and watch the action. All in all a great weekend and we can't wait to come back and play this course again.
