The Best Golf Courses in Farsley, West Yorkshire, United Kingdom (2025)

Lovely club very welcoming by Staff and Members. Great golf and a lovely meal afterwards. Our society (Black Sheep) have been coming to Shipley for the last few years and have never been disappointed. Thank you.

The best golf course in the area, and one of the best in Yorkshire. A beautiful hidden gem, with a great variety of holes, and true greens. Perfect for golfers of all abilities and ages.

Had a great day on the Underpin charity day. Shipley golf course was in fantastic condition. Staff, food atmosphere amazing.

This course is beautiful with great history. Nathan, the pro was so kind, even after running late because our rental car broke down. We didn’t specify that we needed rental clubs in the booking and he still ran to the basement and put some together while his other 2 sets were booked out already. I couldn’t recommend this beautiful course more. It’s unique features as an Alister McKenzie course brings holes that crossover like a plane runway. You can play the original amen corner. This is a must play at a great price!

Nice course and facilities. Only problem is the amount of kids on the driving range. You can be sat around for half an hour waiting for a bay while they mess about due to the sheer number of them. One of them nearly hit another person waiting due to their poor skill level and general lack of care as the ball ricocheted off the side wall, up and then back to the seating area. The numbers of kids needs controlling. Other than that, it's a well kept course with reasonable membership prices. Guest prices are a little on the high side.

Hello, I would firstly like to say what an absolute magical day we had. From start to finish Becky was brilliant and truly a wonderful Lady. We loved every minute and thankyou Mr & Mrs Todd

As a recently taking up golf, i have really enjoyied using the Manors facilities. A trip After work to the driving range or taking my son on a weekend, has really caught his interest too. Would recommend and will continue to use them

Had our wedding here on the 27/04/24 and we had the most incredible day! All of the events coordinators could not have been more helpful with all of our crazy questions! The venue is gorgeous as are the grounds, which made for amazing photos by the lake! The venue was set up just how we imagined, if not better! The Manor worked amazingly with our vendors and everything went smoothly! Have to say a massive thank you to all of the event coordinators! Would 100% recommend for any wedding/event!

Had a good day here on Seniors Day. 27 hole course. Big thank you to Saul in the pro shop for his help and patience with explaining the card and where we get our shots. A bit confusing because there are three 9 holes courses with 1-9 strokes on each 9. The course was in excellent condition. I was very happy with my game but struggled on the difficult greens. (Used to flater slower greens 😅) we played the lakes course which is hole 1 to 18. The weather was amazing but very hot 🥵😫😅. Great day and looking forward to playing here again.

Played as part of a large visiting party on friday 27th sept 2024 and what an experience. Members and staff couldnt have been more welcoming. As for the course it was superb. Tee boxes fairways and greens were in fantastic condition. The course has 27 holes with many memorable ones. A word of warning if you look at the scorecard it doesnt seem to long but its monstrous off the white tees (which we played off) because of the undulating fairways. On a final note the food was first class. Highly recommend

Excellent golf course to play, provides a good challenge to all! Staff are very friendly, make members and guests feel equally as welcome. I've made use of the tuition with head pro Lewis Clarke, both indoor simulator and on course lessons. In a short period of time Lewis has helped me to build a better understanding of my golf swing, build a better approach to practice and playing, ultimately lowering my handicap!

I booked a society day for work (32 people) at Moor Allerton in July. The staff were incredibly helpful, Alison could not have done more to create the day for us, from assisting with prizes to running around on the day. Junior and his staff were excellent in the bar making a great BBQ. Then George in the pro shop helping with tee times (some slow play) and getting markers out for our competitions. Couldn't recommend more!

Absolutely love this place, my daughter has had both group and individual lessons which she loved and really helped her game. The staff are so friendly and the food is amazing in the clubhouse. Will definately be continuing the lessons here.

It has been some years since I last visited Leeds Golf Centre. I was very impressed with the warm welcome of the staff and enjoyed the range facilities, playing acround of virtual golf at St Andrews.

A thoroughly pleasant course. Some really challenging holes that require you to think your way down the short stuff. Novice golfers shouldn't be put off, as it is forgiving in many places. Not the longest (just under 6000 off the yellow tees. Great clubhouse with a small but adequate menu for the post game feeding.

At Willow Valley Golf Club there are 3 golf courses, a driving range, a moderately sized practice putting area and a short game area. The driving range isn't the smartest ive seen but it is functional and is a welcome practice and/or warm up facility. The other practice facilities are great and well maintained. There are also teaching professionals who offer both individual and (very reasonably priced) group tuition. I have had some coaching from Joe at WVGC and I can highly recommend his services. I have played all three courses many times and they offer a good variety of challenge. 1) Fountain Ridge: This is the 9 hole course. It comprises of 6 Par 3 holes and 3 par 4s. All of the holes are relatively short but there is a nice bit of variety for such a small course (2 dogleg holes - one left and one right, some slight elevation changes and a few well placed bunkers). The course is very beginner friendly but is also good fun for golfers of all abilities; I sometimes play the 9 hole course if I'm short on time but still want to have a knock around. Be aware; it is a popular course and being so beginner friendly means you may well encounter players of a poorer standard or very young players etc. However everyone has to start somewhere (and this is a great place to do just that) so as long as you accept that on busy days you might be waiting a little, there should be no issue. 2) Pine Valley: The first of two 18 hole courses. This I would say is a good step up from the fountain ridge course, providing longer holes and more of a "full" golfing experience, but is still beginner friendly. With a slope rating of 97 this course is very forgiving. Most greens are open on approach and not heavily guarded by bunkers etc. The bunkers there are though, are well placed in areas, and at distances that are fitting for the beginner - intermediate golfer. Better golfers will not find a great challenge here but will still find a fun and enjoyable round of golf. I like to play Pine when I just want a relaxing round. I will say that the Pine course is very popular and can start to suffer from heavy use as the season goes on; tee boxes can be particularly worn at times, though it would be tough to keep up with so much traffic. My only real issue with Pine is that there are a lot of casual golfers who either don't know or don't care about the rules and etiquette of golf, meaning on occasion you can be stuck being groups who ignore much faster groups (or individual players) and insist on hacking their way slowly around the course as you stand on the tee tearing your hair out. I appreciate everyone is playing as well as they are able, it's just that there are rules in place specifically to tackle this issue. Failure to repair pitchmarks also seems to be a popular characteristic of some of the less golf-savvy clientele. 3) Willow Valley: the "Championship Course". This full 18 hole course provides a good challenge for any player. With a slope rating of between 129 and 137 (depending on tee box) it is a great test. There is a lot of water on this course, some tight fairways and an interesting variety of holes in terms of shape, elevation, length and hazards. Simply hitting driver on every hole is likely to get you into trouble and thinking your way around the course is advisable. I have been reliably informed the club actually removed a number of bunkers from the course a few years ago as it was felt to be too challenging! During the season this course is well maintained, the greens are typically quick and roll beautifully and I would recommend a round here to anyone who is serious about their game. I will add that, out of season, all three of the courses can get VERY wet and boggy in places - I have lost balls in the centre of the fairways at times due to balls plugging so deeply. However, there is a refund policy clearly displayed and the course is regularly inspected and will be closed if conditions get too bad. All in all Willow Valley Golf is a great club with a wide range of facilities and options for all abilities.

Amazing! My first experience golfing with a friend and it couldn’t have gone any better. The location is absolutely perfect with lots of well looked after fields and very friendly golfers. Everything is well spaced out and the practice facilities are clean and to the point. Ample car parking and great atmosphere. Highly recommended!

First time playing 9 hole course,little gem 6 decent length par 3's and 3 par 4's. Great value for money

A great place to practice for very little cash. Obviously its not a championship course for £5 a go but it is definitely good value for a quick round if you are a beginner. Some challenging holes and lots of easy ones. A few greens in poor condition but that's probably due to the weather. Definitely worth a visit.

A great place to have fun with your friends and exercise at the same time!! There is an entrance fee but is low as 5£! Open space plenty of green!!

Great place for a nice quick game of golf, it has really reasonable prices, the course itself is not that big but it’s perfect for me who’s just starting out playing golf with my wife. They also have golf carts you can borrow for a pound. Just like every golf course in the world this golf course is best played in the sun shine, afterwards you can also pop in to goals for a well earned pint 😁

As a golf club , I don't know. We went for a function, a first birthday 🎂 🥳. Very impressed with the location , car parking is super close to the building, the function room was perfect, roomy, and plenty of natural light through the large windows ( early afternoon for us ) . The bar was friendly with plenty of choice, they even catered for the event which was surprisingly nice. Over all highly recommended if you need a place fir a function 👌🏾. Enjoy if you do .

Amazing food, good staff and great golf club!

Went for a 50th Anniversary meal, the staff were really friendly and helpful from the booking and organising the menu stage. It was well organised and a lot of people said they'd enjoyed the food and would go back here again. It's dog friendly as well so we're thinking of calling again when we're out.

Fantastic course ,quite challenging with great greens and a lovely clubhouse .

Lovely for dod walking there woods canal and golf course

A little gem of a golf course just on the outskirts off Leeds town centre. And the club house is 100%better due to the improvements of the toilets both ladies and gents also the new disabled toilet and much needed front of house pro shop and coffee seating area

*Wedding Party* Thank you so much to the amazing staff at the club who went above and beyond to host my mums wedding. Clarissa is an absolute superwoman and no request was too big or small and I couldn’t have got through the day without her help. The lovely ladies at the bar were complete troopers and were nonstop all night and even cleaned everything up and packed everything away for us to pick up the next day. Everyone was so lovely at the club and made us all feel so welcome! The kitchen staff went out of their way to cater to everyones dietary needs and made everyone aware of what they could and couldn’t have if they had intolerances or allergies. Everything was labelled and the food was gorgeous! The space we had was beautiful, the conservatory had a lovely outdoor space right outside which lead to views right over the golf course. The bar was well stocked with different options, the toilets were accessible and there was so much space for us. Highly recommend booking for functions!

Many Many big thank you's to Clarissa and her team with helping us with our wedding celebrations . Absolutely fantastic hot and cold buffet. All our guests complimented the food so big thank you to the chef and his team . Very impressed . Lovely venue Clarissa couldn't have been more helpful. We would highly recommend . Many thanks Dawn and Keith Parry .

Went to a party here. Lovely place. Wasn't too expensive. Function sweet is big. I'd recommend a party here

Great course and very well priced but the 5 star goes to the staff. Always smiling and happy to help advise. Purchased 2 new wedges from the shop at a good price and they chucked in some free balls as a thank you. Top notch
