Excellent Experience at Matlock Golf Course I recently had the pleasure of playing at Matlock Golf Course, and it was a fantastic experience. The course is in great condition, deceptively looking easy but offering plenty of challenges for all skill levels. Every hole had its unique set of obstacles, keeping the round exciting and engaging. The facilities were top-notch, and the food was excellent, making it a well-rounded day out. A special mention to the professional, Christian Goodman, who was incredibly helpful and offered some valuable tips that improved our round. I highly recommend this course to any golfer!

Played this course today, scenery beautiful. Lovely picturesque back drop but the course is not for beginners. The par 3’s are long, the par 4’s are long and the fair ways are packed with their own challenges. On top of this the greens are elevated with run offs too. Not a single flat hole, either steep uphill or steep downhill. Its a great challenge if you fancy yourself as a player, just not begginer friendly. The staff were nice and friendly, the place itself will no doubt be a good course to return to when i improve. But i play off 25 and today was tough. Thanks for having us Matlock Golf Club

1906Club As members of the 1906 group we had courtesy of the course and courtesy is the word to describe all the staff and members with whom we came into contact A warm welcome from the Pro and Assistant.. We’d booked a buggy and it was ready and waiting. A tricky course which really tested a lower handicap but with Tee positions to accommodate a higher handicap Lady A warm welcome and excellent food at a reasonable price at the bar even at non member prices. All members we came into contact with were warm, friendly and helpful. Don’t miss this gem if you’re in the Derbyshire Dales

Played early morning earlier this week. The pro and greens staff could not have been more helpful and accommodating. They were all so proud to showcase their course and for good reason! The front 9 was out of this world with unbelievable holes in every day, cannot wait to come back!

Played here for the first time today with my brother, the course, the facilities, the food and especially the staff were unreal. Couldn’t recommend this course enough, we’ve had some bad weather recently and the fairways/greens are in superb condition, credit to the green keepers. Will 100% be returning!

I've been a member here for a number of years now. I may be a little bit biased, but I think that it is a wonderful course. I would recommend this course to anyone visiting the High Peak ,and fancying a knock.

Our 8 man society played on 22/06. Really warm welcome by the lady in the golf shop, just the perfect introduction to the golf club. The course itself was challenging, but well kept and the greens ran fast and true. Bar staff equally professional for the post round inquest! We had a lovely day and would definitely return.

Our Society recently had a golf day at Chapel en le frith Golf Club and were overwhelmed with how great an experience it was. Breakfast, Diner and Tea all included in the price, coffee on arrival, one 18 hole round and a 9 hole round. The club captain came in to greet us even though he was injured and gave us some good information on the course. The course is amazingly maintained, Tee Boxes, Fairways and greens are all really well maintained and look great, the views from the course are breath-taking. Fairways are very open however the course is very challenging and will test your golf skill. Buggy hire is exceptionally reasonably priced. the food was prepared really well and tasted great. the whole group couldn't find a single complaint throughout the whole course. 10/10 - Hope to see you all again soon !

What an absolute pleasure to play a course which I must have driven past many times and never really knew it was here! Excellent condition out on the course. Made very welcome in the Pro Shop and Clubhouse bar. There are some little touches which make the experience so memorable. The outside seating alongside the practice green is no doubt well used and made for a welcome post round refreshment seat! Stunning views on many holes, the challenge on each is different taking the experience up a further notch! Thank you for supporting the On Course Foundation with their fund raising!

Beautiful course and perfect weather, challenging test for all levels of golfers. The course is hilly and greens trcky but the views you get are stunning,, we visited as a society and everyone enjoyed it 👌👌

Rating: 5 / 5

What an absolute gem of a golf course! But my word it’s hilly so get a buggy!! £40 for manicured greens and well presented fairways, different challenges and views over Hope Valley. Just brilliant, will be back (with a buggy again)

Cracking golf course. Really nice layout with holes to test people of all abilities. The greens are super quick, and the pins are in challenging positions. I would definitely recommend a visit here! Nice bar and restaurant serving a good selection of tasty food and premium beers.

Excellent course to play and well kept - lightening fast greens. All staff very welcoming and provide an excellent menu along side traditional clubhouse features. Looking forward to my return one day!

A very warm welcome from the pro shop, really friendly. Helpful information given. Unfortunately 2 holes are currently closed due to major roadworks, beyond the clubs control. The course was in fairly good condition considering we had several quite heavy snow showers through the afternoon. Good value for a round of golf on an interesting but not long course. Well worth a visit.

Rating: 4 / 5

Great course, always in good condition. The green fees are so reasonable!! The course provides a great variety for all golfers even having a links feel to 4 of the holes. I would definitely recommend a visit!!

Such a lovely place and great people working there. We did the golf simulation in the studio and had so much fun! The gent behind the till was such a legend too!

Such a great day with members from our club in Nottinghamshire. The staff were very friendly & attentive & the course was lovely with great views over Buxton & the surrounding area. The food was excellent home made steak pie & crumble to follow 😋 Hopefully the score will improve next time, we will be back 🏌️‍♂️🏌️‍♀️⛳️

Beautiful hidden gem of a course 9 holes somewhat testing in parts narrow fairways plenty of ball can be lost

Rating: 5 / 5

Great compact golf course with outstanding holes, challenging every part of your game. The 9th is the only hole that is a bit bland the rest make fantastic use of trees, higher ground and rolling land. I really enjoyed holes 3/12, 4/13, 5/14, 6/15, just a beautiful run of holes. Every hole is different each one with its own charm. If you are brave enough to get the driver out you can get close to a few of them , but if you go even a little of line you will run up a big number. You need to play the first nine to understand how to play the holes then the next nine make much more sense. If you have not played here it is well worth a visit.

Friendly and helpful atmosphere, very hospitable. Well kept course, fairly hilly and the best way to see Bakewell. Book online and collect scorecard from the glass case by the boot cleaner. Birdie on the 8th!

Rating: 5 / 5

Delicious food at very reasonable prices. Set on the hill overlooking Bakewell and the Wye valley below. Catch it on a sunny afternoon for alfresco dining in stunning sorroundings. Note, it is open to non golf club members but booking advised.

We are from Northern Ireland and touring Peak District. We stumbled on this. If you want great views of Bakewell town and surrounding area, combined with a hilly walk in the Dales while playing a game of golf on a super wee reasonably priced course, this is the place for you. A hidden gem. Also, if you haven’t eaten there you really, really should … it is amazing and also very, very reasonable! Finally, the staff are so friendly. If it was my local I wouldn’t go anywhere else. A great memory made. Thank you.

Great location👀⛳️Nice course & clubhouse

Rating: 4 / 5

Only visited the bar and event space. Sadly ran out of vodka 15 minutes into an organised event which is a poor show. Decent place, a little tired in places but nothing too serious.

Rating: 5 / 5

First and foremost the staff and members of the club welcome you with open arms and are very hospitable!! This is followed up by the best course I have played all year and one of the best I have ever played!!! Work is being carried out on some of the tee boxes and I would love to come back and play it when these are completed. The fairways are immaculate and the greens for October are in amazing condition! There are some very tough and challenging holes that really test your game. I found the greens to be very challenging to hit and anything that misses the green really tests your short game. If you enjoy playing different courses this course has to be added to your list!!!!

This was a golf course that I was looking forward to playing but unfortunately I was mentally not fit to play , I went there because I just wanted to play the course and I enjoyed the course but could not play my game as I was not in the right mental mind set . I will recommend this course as I have always enjoyed technical golf courses and this was just the type for me and the way it was laid out. If you are in Sheffield and want to be challenged play this course you will be pleased .

Great course, considering all the rain we have had, in great condition, great credit to grounds staff. Lovely inside clubhouse made to feel very welcome.

Rating: 5 / 5

Such a beautiful 18 hole course, perfect for all golfers, variety of pars, some more challenging than others. I’m still in my first year so call myself a beginner and I like the different challenges of this course. Staff are friendly, the club room is clean and has a good selection of drinks and food. Buggies available and the pro shop is always well stocked. I had my very first lesson with Sam the Pro here and I am glad I chose here as it is bigger than my home course.

Rating: 5 / 5

Very enjoyable course with plenty of interest. We held our Captain's Day here and the staff were funny, efficient and attentive. Top class 27 holes of golf and a decent price too.
