The Best Golf Courses in Hope Woodlands, Derbyshire, United Kingdom (2025)

Turned up on spec and only wanted to play 9 holes. " It's cheap anyway, but you have to pay for 18, £20" I was told. Quick look on the web and we booked via a 3rd party website for £10.99 each. Go figure! Nice undulating course with some challenges. It's only 9 holes so you go round twice if playing 18, with different tee offs. I will return for an 18 soon

Great location👀⛳️Nice course & clubhouse

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.

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!

Fantastic course played in heavy winds was challenging but enjoyable will return and play when less windy someday some

Absolute class. My friend and I played on a glorious Sunday afternoon in October, and it was perfect. I knew about the reputation of this course as ‘the inspiration for Augusta’ and it does deliver. Dr Alastair McKenzie knew what he was doing. Amazing views from all corners of the course and despite the overall elevation, because the holes are carefully crafted into the tables of the terrain, it is a surprisingly good walk. The staff (shoutout to assistant pro, Liam) are super helpful and make you feel very welcome. Great hospitality in the clubhouse and you can enjoy watching players come in with a cold pint on the terrace. Cannot recommend highly enough and can’t wait to return next year. Proper golf course!

Playing of mats has helped preserve good fairways. Although because it’s not flat course this can also be tricky with borrowed mats. Greens were decent but not overly quick and a bit long - it is December after all so can be forgiven. Good layout and picturesque par 3s. Would love to play in its peak during the summer

Played here for my birthday in October 2024 and had a great time. The course is great and very scenic. In addition, my dad was playing golf for the first time since an operation and the staff in pro shop and bar were very helpful. He's now keen to get out and play again thanks to a good to a good experience here.

Excellent course. Not the longest in the world, but technical with sloped fairways. The technically gifted will have a significant reward. Nice clubhouse with friendly staff.

Fairways at Chevin Golf Club had the most delicious steak pie I have ever had. It had chunky beef pieces covered in thick, rich gravy. This is definitely a place for pie!

We play a lot of open competitions a year and two of the Lad's had never played Chevin before so I booked us into an open. The day from start to finish was second to none.We were made to feel extremely welcome by all the staff from the club house to the well stocked Pro shop then a starter that was a credit to the club. We had a top notch breakfast then a round on one of the very best courses we have played this year. Fairways were just like walking on carpet complemented by true greens that posed some issues to work out the line in short a top course. I would very strongly recommend this class golf club.

We are always welcomed with a smiley face. Course in very good condition even after 2 days of torrential rain. Good food and choice of drinks. Thanks from the players from Burton Golf Club

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!!

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.

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 🏌️‍♂️🏌️‍♀️⛳️

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!

First time at Hope Valley Golf Course and loved every minute. Course is only 9 holes (twice) but different tee positions on second round. Difficult to find at first well worth the wait. Would highly recommend.

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.

Very good 👍 course,and in good condition for the weather we have been having.

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

Really nice course with a few quirky holes, great view's, very good greens, v friendly lads in pro's shop, highly recommend a visit here.

Great golf course on the edge of Derbyshire. Lots of different styles holes to challenge every level. Some of the views from the course are absolutely stunning. The par three 16th which is 230 yards off the yellows, down a steep hill overlooking the Manchester valley, on any given day, can be played with an eight iron, or as much as three wood, depending on the wind. Truly a fantastic course for a very enjoyable days golf.

You will not be disappointed with the scenery at this place. Good course but a tough if playing in to the wind.

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.

Loveliest staff! Gorgeous views and great food. There is a stairlift and accessible toilet too❤️

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 !

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.

Held my Dad's wake at the golf club on Monday 3rd February, couldn't fault it had the hot sandwiches and chips, they were fantastic great quality meat on the sandwiches and plenty of it, cakes were delicious. Upstairs room was great. Staff were very welcoming and helpful, would definitely recommend.

A lovely, pretty course. Obviously gorgeous in today's sunshine. Quite testing, but had a thoroughly great morning. Nice, friendly bar staff. Can't wait to get back at some point very soon. A little problematic with holes crossing over each other, but with no time constraint, wasn't a problem for our 4-ball

I have just joined this club and I was nervous as I am quite a new player but everyone has been friendly and welcoming, I feel informed on the course and events that are happening. The course is great and I am looking forward to playing more and in the Summer getting my handicap. I have eaten here in the past and it has been delicious, staff are friendly too.

Great tight 9 holer worth the trip will play again

Fabulous golf course. The staff are really good and the food

Came her today for champagne breakfast for my wife's birthday, food was amazing although the portions were large, not a complaint! Service was excellent and staff very friendly and attentive. We've been before and would definitely come again. 100% recommend it. Well done everyone 👏 👍

Visited the newly opened restaurant and was surprised with what a transformation from what it was before. It was much more atmospheric than before with a more welcoming vibe. Service was fast and attentive and food was excellent especially the wood fired pizza. All in all and excellent evening and will definitely be going back 10 out of 10

Our first time in the new restaurant and I have to say it didn’t disappoint. What a change, the design is a huge improvement from before, they’ve created a welcoming and contemporary restaurant which is matched with a varied and interesting menu. And so lovely to look out over the stunning golf course. The food was good, so was the service. Looking forward to our next visit, would definitely recommend!

The best greens I’ve played on in sometime Course is kept to a very high standard with lots of great touches Super friendly pro with well stocked shop Super layout and challenging course, friendly staff and members, would highly recommend and definitely return.

Nice course, well kept. The views are fantastic at times.

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.

My favourite place in the area!! This is a quality course with such a variety of excellent holes. The views you have of the Peak District in the distance are amazing. The greens were in great condition as were the tees and fairways. This will be a place I always come back too!!
