Great Course played on the perfect day if you get a hot deal

I have played this course before on a windy wet day and this was a completely different course. The conditions for this round were sunny with no wind. The course condition was excellent and the greens well maintained. I booked this course as a 4 ball on a hot deal 14:30 Tee off. All tee times 2 hours before and after were £36 which I believe a bit excessive. The £22 I paid was about right and would have paid up to £25. This reflected on the number of golfers on the course. Virtually None, we only witnessed 2 other pairs over 18 holes and they were finishing there round as we started. You do need to be relatively fit for this course as there are quite a few inclines. But this does make for spectacular views and the feature Hole 17th did not disappoint. An elevated Tee at the top of a cliff looking down at a saucer. I manged to put my shot on the 17th short of the Green. Last time I played the course the same 7 Iron was 50 yards over the back of the green. Overall an excellent experience and I hope to be back soon.

Simply stunning.

This is the second time I have played Halifax, after playing it last year in poor weather conditions (mist and drizzle) but I still enjoyed it and wanted to return. Well yesterday I did return in 22deg bright sunshine and what an absolute joy, the greens were fantastic the fairways just about perfect, myself and playing partner virtually had the course to ourselves for our mid morning tee off and l really can’t understand why it’s so quiet, yes it’s difficult and you have to think your way round but that and the location/scenery is what makes it. (Oh and it was only 20 quid) I will definitely be returning and want to shout about the course from the hilltops, but also want to keep it quiet. Do yourself a favour and add it to your list of “must” play’s,you won’t be disappointed.

A must........

I have to admit that as we approached the course I was rather worried, the road was narrow and we seemed to be in the middle of no where with no sign if a goof club. How wrong you can be! The course is a hidden gem, almost a hidden valley. It’s a great layout, great condition, superb views and a friendly welcome. Some great holes, with relatively small challenging greens. The only slight disappointment was no food on offer after the round, but that didn't detract from the quality of the day, after all we were there to play golf and not eat. Will definitely revisit

Great course.

The lay-out is very technical and a leveller to make sure big drivers don't have the sole advantage. You are forced to play more irons and is a really good course for average to advanced golfers.

The course is physically challenging

Long round for fourball of nearly 4 3/4 hours , not easy to know always where playing to , shame to have mat on quite a few tees when not wet or over used due to covid

Amazing course

It’s like a step back in time. Amazing views, really interesting layout and never boring. The 17th is bonkers. The pro is rarely around so make sure you have tees food and balls before you arrive

Lovely course - terrible pace of play.

A lovely course with some great feature holes. However, on the day we played we walked off the course after nearly 4 hours having only played 13 holes. We were stuck behind two four balls which was very frustrating.

Gem

Lovely course that meanders through a valley. Not the longest but layout means the greens are well protected and you won’t be able to bomb the driver off every tee. Held up well for December. Will definitely return in the summer as views are fantastic.
