Intriguing course layout.

The course potentially could be fantastic. It’s has so much potential but it just needs tidying up in certain places. Some cracking holes. Quite a few blind drives. It’s almost May and I would expect the greens to be in a better condition so this was really disappointing, almost bone dry to the touch. They were in desperate need of water. But the fairways were lush and I would say this was its strength.

Nice coures

Having lived locally to bakewell for years this course hasn’t been on my radar.
Really glad we tried it !
Although the clubhouse was closed , the views of bakewell for a post game beer are amazing.
The course it self is very well maintained although the greens had just had some maintenance, once settled they’ll be fast and true.
Set on a hillside we were expecting smaller holes and lots of hills, this isn’t really the case.
You do need to be relatively fit and agile but no more than most courses.
The 9/18 hole is a real treat , looking forward to playing it again.

Buxton in April

For the time of year, I have no complaints about this course. The greens were hollow tined which is always going to happen at this time of year.
Good layout, although crossing the A6 was a mission. It has lots of holes that make you have to think, which I like. Instead of just blasting a driver away all the time, which can be tedious.
I will go back again in the height of summer and play it at its best and I can’t wait.
I’m a scratch golfer on a comeback from a bad injury and this place suited my return to 18 holes.
Very friendly staff and had a socially distanced chat with some locals who were very welcoming.
Overall, really pleased. Thank you Buxton

The course was not in good condition, it's hard to decide if more sand was on the green or bunkers

Lovely location

A few drawbacks to a really good course. Greens were very dry and patchy. Crossing to busy road twice is a hassle. Very slow pace of play behind lots of 4 balls.
Fairways excellent and challenging terrain.

Fantastic back to golf round

I booked here as my first round after lockdown and wasn’t disappointed. The course was interesting and in good conduction. Despite the previous rain the course was dry and the greens were good despite being treated. The course has a great variety of holes and is beautiful and picturesque in its setting. The par 3s were lovely. Despite being a slightly shorter course it was challenging and made for a superb day out. Wrap up warm as it is quite exposed.
