What the club says: This parkland golf course is situated in the heart of the ancient Forest of Galtres, just two miles from the northern section of the ring road around the historic city of York
From the seventh green, York Minster is visible to the south, and to the north, 20 miles away, one can see the White Horse of Kilburn on the Hambleton Hills. The rural and peaceful nature of this ancient forest area, with its mature oak trees, has been enhanced by much additional tree planting.

Reviewed Aug 22 2019 by Mike A - rated 4 out of 5 First time I've played here and it was very pleasant. There was a society just in front so we jumped off from the tenth and that's when we got lost! ended up playing 10-17-18 then back to the first. It didn't detract from the golf one bit and I would recommend a round here anytime.
