What a load of Moaning Minnies!
We've played one or other of the Temple Newsam Courses virtually every Wednesday for the last three years, around 150 rounds, we have not seen any 'vandels', only once seen a kid on a bike on either course, perhaps we find a flag missing or bicycle skid marks once every couple of months. Both courses are long and challenging but are almost invariably in very good condition, except when essential scarifying or similar is necessary. The rough may be unforgiving but the Fairways are generally wide and in good condition. The staff in the shop are always great and the bar is excellent. A round costs £10:65 during the week. I recently heard a player say that he had played £50:00 to play a nearby course and it wasn't in any better condition. The only trouble with the two courses is that more people don't play.

Great Improvements

Have played this course in all its various layouts over the past 30 year's. First time playing it's current and probably final layout yesterday. I think they've done a brilliant job of the design and including a lot of new paths/cart tracks around the course. The views from some of the elevated tee,s across Leeds are fantastic. The course was quite busy but pace of play was good,the greens were in excellent condition and the tee boxes and fairways were pretty good standard as well. I really hope that Leeds city council don't close this course because it is an absolute credit to the city. I highly recommend that you give it a try.

New layout, well worth a visit!

1st time playing the new layout and was a lot more enjoyable, have to say the quality of greens was much improved - they were a little slow at times but a lot of work has gone into them so a big thumbs up to the Greenskeepers.

The one negative for me is with a new layout they could have removed some of the old hole numbers as it was a bit confusing at times but overall definitely worth playing and I will be back very soon.

Challenging course Great views Highly recommend

I’m a member of another Leeds based golf club and was drawn to play in a singles comp at Temple Newsam. I was told before hand that the course was a bit of a state. Far from it. Considering the winter we’ve had, the course is in good shape. If I was being picky I would say the greens are bit woolly. I didn’t see any quad bikes although I did see a deer which was nice. The views on several lofty holes are worth the green fees. The course is quite long and challenging but offers golfers of all handicaps par and birdie opportunities. I had a pint afterwards and although a basic clubhouse the staff were welcoming and friendly. Finally, the member I played with was an absolute gent and a great ambassador for the club. Thanks again for the game Paul.

Greens were in really good shape. The new course layout was a mixture of some long holes and short par 4s. Fairways bouncy and good lies. Great for high handicap players. Greens are challenging to stay on as they're tight and narrow.

New layout gives a good 18 hole course but feel it's a bit pricey for a round.
It's a good test for average golfers with some difficult holes but better players will find it less of a challenge. Work continues to be done on the Course and with time this could be a very good venue. Facilities could improve as well which would improve the overall experience.

Played this for 1st time in a few years. Greens were very good and overall state of course was good Its a public course so the round with concessions was less that ?12 which is amazing. if this were a private course Id expect to be paying circa ?20-?25.
