What a lovely surprise.A nice course with some good features and pretty holes.
Still testing for the lower handicappers due to tight fairways and fast greens

Lovely course spoilt by 2 members
My son and I visited Drax for the first time, we had spoken to a couple of staff who were extremely friendly and provided some good advice. Unfortunately we were approached by two club members on the 12th, one of them said he was the president although I think he meant Captain, they bluntly told us we were incorrectly dressed and that there was a very strict dress code. We explained that we hadn't been informed of this by any member of staff but what really upset us was the way these 2 club members spoke to us. If this golf club wants to attract more members especially the younger generation then I suggest the captain and the members of the club take a look at how the staff in the social club and the green keepers treat the paying public.The staff were welcoming and friendly and it's only because of the staff that we will return to play again.Reviewer Rating

It's tricky to comment when there's no comparable course or club that I know of. It's a challenging and interesting 12-hole course where accuracy is key, so not suited to simple long hitters.
Club insists on fairway mats or tees in winter, which is over-protective and doesn't allow visitors to play realistic golf. Similarly, the club resorts too readily to temporary greens and tees and the course is too often closed after rain. Leaves are a horrendous problem in autumn despite the seniors section apparently engaged on frequent clearance.
I wouldn't join this club simply because winter golf is so limited, it'd be impossible to get value; that's a shame, as it's a very attractive course when fully open and playable. I've filed it under 'summer only' for future trips.
