Highly Recommended 2018
What the club says: Cavendish, which opened in 1925, was designed by Dr Alister MacKenzie, and unlike many early courses has not been altered in response to today’s pressures. At 5721 yds off the medal tees, the course remains shorter than many, yet still fulfils MacKenzie's belief that length has nothing to do with the quality of a hole.

Reviewed Aug 17 2019 by Ben - rated 5 out of 5 Possibly the best value for money course in the country
An unbelievable course that was set up brilliantly. The work that has been done in the past 12 months is outstanding and has transformed this good course into a great club. The food was fantastic and a far sight better than it had been in previous years due to a new catering team. I would definitely recommend playing this course and I am going to join as a member, I enjoyed it that much.Course (layout/challlenge)

This golf course truly is outstanding in its lay out, different aspects, beautiful vista's and the hard work the ground staff and patrons provide to keeping the course in such an excellent condition. It's a course I will be back to play over and over again.(Round played: Aug 2019 - Score: 77 Handicap: 12.8)

Reviewed Apr 16 2019 by Keith D - rated 5 out of 5 Better than more famous Golf Courses
Played on Sunday morning 14-04. Booked an early tee online and had a small delay due to course thawing out which meant we sampled the hot drinks available in the friendly clubhouse. We?d only played 2 holes when we realised we were playing somewhere special.A fabulous course which just got better.
Difficult to single out one hole as so many were fantastic- Every par 3, 3rd,5th,6th,9th,10th,11th and not forgetting the fabulous18th.
Members must pinch themselves every week at how blessed they are to play this fantastic course. Greens superb and afterwards really reasonably priced food in the bar- can?t wait to get back..

Reviewed Jan 20 2019 by Stockport - rated 5 out of 5 The longest short course you'll ever play!
Cavendish is only 5700 yards long, but you will come off thinking that it's at least 1000 yards longer than that! Every hole is memorable, and at least four of them are among the best holes in the country!Easily the best course in the county, and one of the very best inland courses in the north of England. Well worth the trip to Buxton - itself a lovely town to visit!

Reviewed Sep 12 2018 by Neil B - rated 5 out of 5 Stunning course
First time playing the course. And what a Stunning course it is. The tee boxes, fairways and greens were in fabulous condition. The wet weather had flooded a few bunkers, but I didn't go in any, so the GUR didn't come into play for me. Absolutely immaculate views throughout the very picturesque golf course. I was told the course is quite hilly, but I found it to be relatively easy to get around with no major hills to navigate. As for navigation, the course is well marked and easy to plot your way around. All together I would recommend Cavendish golf club to anyone, whatever their level. One last point, I'd like to say a huge congratulations to the ground staff, who must work hard to maintain the course to such a high standard.(Round played: Sep 2018 - Score: 83 Handicap: 13.8)
