Great greens

Having played Cleckheaton many many times it's still a pleasure to return. The course my not be long by modern day standards but it's always a decent test for mere mortals. Especially now the ground is sodden. Despite the soft conditions the greens were great.

We'll not return

No doubt this is a good and challenging course but this is the second time we've played here and on both occasions the pace of play has been terrible and then to make matters worse, again on both occasions, the greens were turned into beaches mid round with a heavy sand covering.

Always worth a visit

The rain has done the course a world of good. Few brown patches on some greens but overall in good condition, albeit deceptively slow.

I'd always recommend others to play here. It's not expensive and a decent test.

Wow - Those greens

We play here two or three times a year travelling from Huddersfield simply because we like this course. We like the layout and the fact that there are no Mickey Mouse holes. Our round this time was let down a little by the pace of play but the quality of those greens compensated somewhat. More golf courses should advise fourballs that they should always wave two balls through but sadly more and more this doesn't happen.

A good test

Fixby is always enjoyable with a good mixture of challenging long and tricky short par 4's. The greens were very good given the recent heavy rain.

Never Disappoints

This is the 5th time we've visited here this year and we have an 80 mile round trip to play. Occasionly the pace of play is slow ish, but we usually play in a two ball so I guess it's to be expected now and then. Other than that the course is great, a good test, nice surroundings and well presented.

Hole Closed

This is the third time this year we’ve turned up at a course booked via golf now only to find at least one hole closed or un-playable. Golf Now should insist that courses publish this beforehand or during the booking process. Had we known we would certainly have chosen somewhere else to play.

Other than that the course was in good condition with fast true greens

Great course and day but........

The pace of play was a little slow but the course was in fantastic condition and the greens we immaculate so we weren't too bothered.

And then we reached the 14th green and disaster. The greenkeepers had tyned and spread sand on the 14th to 18th greens but not had chance to brush the excess away making the greens almost unplayable. It's a shame it spoilt a good day.

This may not be the prettiest course you ever play but it’s a good test on a good layout and the greens right now are fantastic

Always Enjoy Sandburn

Other than the pace of play we had a great day. The course is in great condition, albeit the greens whilst being quick and true are a little firm. Played here quite a few times and will certainly return

Always a good challenge

We enjoyed our round. The weather wasn't as forecasted but I guess this happens often at Baildon. It's a while since I last played here but nothing has changed, find the fairways if you want pars or better, miss them in the heather and even if you find your ball it's a bogey or worse.

A good mix of some challenging holes and some pretty straight forward holes. Mostly enjoyed our round, the only slight criticism is the greens and the approaches around the greens were a little hard which gave a few inconsistent bounces.

Bad Condition

I suspect this is a good course usually but when we turned up we were told two holes were closed and the greens are in shocking condition. This course should not be on golfnow until it’s playable

To busy with too many none golfers

I won’t play here again. We queued for every shot on every hole. The Manor no longer seem to care who’s playing as long as they’re paying. I’d hate to be a member there. And to top it all off the greens had been scarified and sanded so we’re very inconsistent

Nice course spoilt

The course is nice enough to play and a decent test even on some of the shorter holes. However our round was ruined by getting stuck behind a four ball on the third who had no intention of waving us through. Not the fault of the course I know but perhaps they should vet visitors to ensure they understand the rules and etiquette

Well worth the drive

This course is up there with the best in and around York. 6400yds off the yellows is a good test but the wide fairways mean the driver can be used on most 4’s & 5’s. The greens were great for this time of the year, fast and true. There is a bit of winter weather damage but another month should sort that out. We’ll be returning even though it’s a 60 mile round trip

Enjoyed

Pike Hills is relatively short so you won't need the driver on more than a handful of holes. That said many of the shorter par 4's are pretty tight so par not a given.

The course was busy so play was pretty slow. That said we got round in 3.50 hours .
