Peak District Beauty

played off the tips with the club Vice Captain as his guest. Lockdown provisions fully in place but felt reassuringly safe throughout. The course is in superb condition and has had a number of cosmetic changes made to the first tee box area. Designed by Tom Williamson. Hollinwell and Longcliffe fame and the layout make great use of the available footprint. There are some jaw-dropping views and vistas available from a range of positions across the courses. The greens and surrounds were in superb order played fast and true. I know the clubhouse and the service is usually excellent however many staff are currently furloughed but my marks on based on several previous visits.this is an excellent course for the visiting golfer. Well worth a visit. The new practice range facilities are well sued but need to be booked prior to arrival.

Stunning Views

I really enjoyed my visit to Matlock.
Felt like a shorter course but the layout of some of the holes means that it is still very challenging.

The views on the back 9 in particular were superb also.

Its fairly forgiving from the tee as long as you're not crazy offline. The general condition of the course was fantastic too.

Really enjoyable round of golf.

Fabulous course

A fabulous course to play. Greens were in good condition for saying they have had a few problems.
A very tiring course, first time I have walked it in ages after having heart surgery but managed to get round.

Gave this course a try and boy was I pleased I did. Members generally very pleasant with 1 exception. Pro fantastic so helpful. Played a round with 2 other non members but regulars, They were great company. Never done this before but halfway round I played the wrong ball. Apologised to member who was very good about it .Did have 1 problem but will leave it at that as I had such a great day.

Holiday golf

Excellent round of golf at Matlock. The course was lovely and will be even better when the grass has grown the greens and they can be cut properly. They were still fine though.

Spectacular surroundings

A course that has spectacular views from all 18 holes. Every hole has an elevation change, some more severe than others. This results in your usual driving distances and lengths that you hit your irons having to be re computed. In other words it is a course where you have to use your brain. Fairways and greens are superbly looked after but if you get frustrated when a bounce doesn't go your way you will not enjoy a round here. The luck of the bounce comes in to play on almost every par 4 and 5 drive. Don't expect flat lies either as the ball is often above or below your feet for your second shot. I enjoyed the challenges that the course presents and its setting was an added bonus.

Nice course with fantastic peak district views

Golfshake Team ReviewAlways nice to play this course, not to long and a decent variety of holes creating a challenge for all golfers. Course is always in superb conditions, well maintained and excellent true greens.

I walked and didn't' find that hilly but it is the peak district so some may find hilly. It is also worth checking on the status of buggies which can be limited due to some of the hills.

Watch out on 7th, 8th and 9th where the tees and greens marginally cross but this is only if you are wayward and the 14th green and 15th tee are also close by. The 14th is a lovely short par 4 which is always worth having a go at. I also like the 13th which play downhill but you are then playing back up to the green with a big bank at the bank.

Finally, look out for the natural spring at the back of the 17th tee box !

You cant visit/live in this area without ticking Matlock GC off your list. A true test with gorse, heather, carries and wonderful views all proving a distraction.
Greens were marked in places but pins positioned well away. Fairways also varied in quality and feel with varying grass types. Worth purchasing a strokesaver and downloading the Pro's tips.

A very enjoyable course to play. The scenery helps but it is the quality of the course design that makes it such a happy challenge. The condition of the whole course was top class. A credit to the greenskeepers and the club professionals. Totally enjoyed my day.

The course was excellent and very well maintained, dare i say manicured! A very tight course, with lots of unusual but fun features. The driving range is excellent as well, and very well lit. Superb views from all areas of the course, making good use of the spectacular surroundings, and the facilities were good, though maybe due some updating in certain places. They have almost finished the golf cart tracks when I went recently as well. Definitely returning and bringing along some friends while i'm at it! Hugely recommended.

Course is set in the picturesque hills of Matlock. Lovely views throughout the round but don't let this impact your concentration. Some very difficult par 3's and a particularly difficult par 5 which has a tight fairway leading to a small elevated green. Make sure you have a good breakfast because the undulating fairways take their toll on the legs by the time you start the back 9. Great testing course which is in fine fettle.
