Friendly and in excellent condition. A magnificent effort after the variable weather in 2021 so far. Good value for money, used a round from my pack of 20 bought £240. Pro shop well stocked.(Round played: Jun 2021 - Score: 96 Handicap: 23)

Reviewed May 21 2021 by Gary W - rated 3 out of 5 Course is the best one to play when the weather has not been kind although the greens on the par three are quite small when you consider the approach shots needed. It seems to be the busier one in the area and reflect sometimes on the pace of play because is always crowded. Not the longest course either but it is challenging. Needs a bar as pub is not very welcoming to golfers.

Reviewed May 15 2021 by Richard P - rated 4 out of 5 Pleasant surprise
First round here with my brothers and thoroughly enjoyable. The course is enough of a challenge and was in very good condition following a few days of rain. Friendly players and staff, with good etiquette shown by others on course. A steady three and one half hours for a threeball on an unfamiliar course. Will definitely play here again. The adjacent pub is very well stocked and serves decent food. They even let golfers park at the top of the car park which is very much appreciated. If you have not played here, give it a go - you may be pleasantly surprised.Course (layout/challlenge)

Reviewed Nov 5 2019 by James J - rated 4 out of 5 Winter Beauty and Relatively Easy
This is a course which is very popular in winter as it drains so well. Some straight forward holes and a couple of challengers in 10 and a couple more on the back nine. Is busy at weekends and during peak times, but worth a visit. They don't do food but there is a very good pub right next door which does great food options. Plus although its in Sheffield its easy enough to get to in rush hour being not far off the M1.Course (layout/challlenge)

Been a member previously at this course. Always the best in the city for drainage and even though it was very damp and soggy it was a great experience, players repairing divots and pitchmarks. Joined as a member so will be aiming to bring that handicap down when the weather gets better too.(Round played: Nov 2019 - Score: 88 Handicap: )
