What the club says: Moortown has always held a richly deserved reputation as one of the country's finest Championship Golf courses. Originally designed by Dr Alister MacKenzie, Moortown is set in 125 acres of dramatically contrasting mainly level woodland and moorland.
From the opening par 5 there are many fine holes to enjoy including the new 6th, rated the most difficult, and the famous Gibraltar par 3 10th with its sloping plateau green, the Club's signature hole.

First time in ten years. Course was very dry which meant shots were running longer than usual. Greens receptive but had been recently hollow tined, however this was reflected with a £50 reduction on the green fee from £175 to £125.

Great course
Challenging and enjoyable course with lots of history. Extremely friendly welcome in both the pro shop and clubhouse which served a full range of food and snacks. The course itself is long with several 400 yard+ par 4?s with the course being extremely well bunkered, especially round the greens, which compounded the difficulty of the course.Reviewer Rating

Stern test of golf
A good, stern test of golf. You need to play well from the get go, as the 1st 4-5 holes can chew you up. Nice ryder cup touches in the clubhouse.Reviewer Rating

Must play!
Fantastic Alistair Mackenzie course, as you'd expect it to be. It's long, but relatively forgiving off the tee, it's the length and the second shot that poses the problems. Must play course.Reviewer Rating

Let Down!
Played in an open at Moortown and was so disappointed at the condition of the course, Greens so slow and don't run true at all, Fairway have bare patches all over them, not worth the £60Reviewer Rating

First Ryder cup venue
A really stunning course, set in a very quiet place considering it's almost bordered by houses. We played on a dry and mildly breezy day. The conditions were perfect underfoot. Standing on the elevated first tee, you get a sense of ?we're happy that you chose to visit us ? kind of feeling.Not one boring hole amongst the eighteen. Greens all brilliant. It would be great to try Moortown in the summer.

Top class course
First time playing Moortown, heard good things prior an was not disappointed. Good setup all round. Heathland course with a few tricky holes. Greens had just been slit and hollowtined so were a bit hard to read and slow, would love to play again to see true greens. Fairly easy walk around mainly on the flat.(Round played: Aug 2018 - Score: 80 Handicap: 5.3)

Amazing experience
Incredible course! Bunkers everywhere, tiered greens and deep rough. A Mackenzie classic. Free balls to hit off the turf range. We were pay and play visitors (?45 each) . We had a rather frosty reception in the pro shop however we were made to feel very welcome in the spike bar afterwards.Loved it
