Stunning

Wakefield golf club is the best course in the area.
The course is well manicured and is always maintained top notch. The fairways, the bunkers and the greens,have got to be top of the league table regarding golf course maintenance. I take my hat off to all concerned green keepers, management, and anyone else who may have had an input. The course is quite stunning. The club house food and choice of food and drink is also ranked up there with the course. The service is first class,with a very friendly atmosphere.

Good well kept course. Friendly clubhouse.
Just one observation, being new to the course we go a little lost on some hole. Could do with some signposts between holes.

AWOL staff

First time i played at the course, booked an early tee time: pro shop was closed, nobody on site, no score card no orientation around course. Ended up starting 30min late, after nobody arriving, messed up order of play, ended up skipping two holes to get round a four ball and three ball to create space for myself. Good course, AWOL staff

Great Course

Played today tee booked for 10.27 pro said problem with system however I could go off at 10.10 am as there was a gap on the Tee Great course wide good fairways tree lined with no heavy rough. Greens still fairly fast after lots of recent rain. Some lovely short par 4 s enjoyed 11 12 and 13. Nice reachable par 5s. Weather fine sunny 14 degrees. in summary a very good fairly flat course I carried no problem. Shot 92 off Handicap of 22 so very happy 70 Nett. Thank you Wakefield Golf club great value for £25 on Golf Now will play again if I see the course on Golf Now again for this price. Would love to join but £600 joining fee and £1150 a bit step for me sadly. Thx again Paul.

What have they done!!

I have played this course for years and loved it. However the grounds man has completely spoiled it by taking out all the shrubs and bushes. This had made the course too easy and ruined the appearance and feel of the course.
Only thing now is they can’t go back, it will take years to get it back in shape.
