I played here today with a view to joining for me and my lad. I was told before hand that the greens had been ninja tined by the lady in the shop I already knew, but it’s lovely that they cared to inform me. There was young member looked to be playing on his own so I asked if he fancied a game and politely joined me which was great, he guided me around and told me about the club. Overall very friendly welcome, practice area and range looked great. Course was in super condition, I’m super picky and I couldn’t find anything to complain about, greens are receptive but not soft or spongy, around the greens was as you’d expect, revetted bunkers were hard but looked absolutely mint with the turf layering. Tee boxes were all flat and tidy with tee bins and divot mix. The course was quiet although there were people playing I didn’t see much of anyone, we played a good pace around 4hrs no one chasing us down and no one playing slow infront. And the weather was superb. I would highly recommend also I received a very good price with a county card.

Lovely golf course some tricky holes, kept in immaculate condition looks really nice, The greens have plenty of slope and are smooth and fast. As slick as you'll find at 3 times the price.

Such a great day out as always. Only played 9 holes all par 4 and 3. The course is such a lovely course with inviting and forgiving fairways. The greens are harder during dryer weather but still slightly challenging in the wet conditions. Pricing is fair too. The staff here are soo friendly and very helpful. And the golf shop here is reasonably priced.

Very tricky to get to, as ,its narrow country lanes . I went through the day & the views are spectacular.Dont think I'd like to go in the dark ! I went to a child's 1st birthday . The place itself is lovely & the buffet was delicious. The staff are very friendly & attentive. I ordered a Slimline tonic , priced at £2.50 , I thought was a bit steep! I thought Golf clubs were subsidised...yikes..Needless to say , I only had the one drink.

A little tucked away gem of a course this. £10 a round is great value, course is cared for, members seem very friendly, club house bar / terrace is very nicely done. Only a par 66 but still a challenging course which favours accuracy. Been back a good few times now. Only downside is it's a 9 hole course and quite 'up hill and down valley', hence not 5 stars but a strong 4 stars and defo worth a visit.

What an amazing wedding we had at Headley! The venue looked stunning, the food was delicious and the service was impeccable. Richard and all the team were fabulous and went above and beyond to make sure our day was as special as possible. It exceeded all our expectations. A massive thanks to all for an unforgettable day!

This is a great golf course. The professional, Paul, is a great teacher and is well worth a few half hour lessons. The 19th hole is not bad either!!

This was a superb venue for golfing, with a space themed course even depicting another planet! The holes do begin as sloped ones which are challenging, although this allows strategy to get through and the bases are a slick feature. Lighting effects in the enclosed room make it feel out of this world; spaceship and astronaut appear too! The course progresses with more fun over craters and the pricing was fine, staff were nice too.

Fun place with helpful staff and reasonable prices! Highly recommend.

Took my Grandson today to play galactic golf. He had a lovely time, the staff were friendly and we had lunch in the cafe which was delicious and very reasonably priced. Excellent coffee. The halloumi wrap I had was very good, fresh, good quality and we will definitely go again

Great little hidden gem of a golf course in Rastrick... Well worth a visit👍⛳

Rating: 4 / 5

Small and short course very well kept and worth a visit. Because of it's size it is very reasonably priced and a round can be played in two or three hours.

I've been a member of the golf club for over 15 years now, I can honestly say it is a challenge every time I play the course is immaculately kept and a pleasure to play.

Rating: 4 / 5

What a very friendly and well kept course. There were some very challenging and picturesque holes. Despite the 20mph wind that was against you on a lot of holes it was a great course to play and a real hidden gem. I look forward to playing it on a nice sunny day!

Nice clubhouse, bar and food. Sitting area outside weather permitting. Very good, although not the easiest of courses, well worth a visit.

From our first visit to Bradley Hall Golf Club, we knew that this venue could be perfect for our wedding and when we met Kerrie to discuss our requirements we definitely knew we had found the right place. Kerrie has been amazing throughout. She has great enthusiasm and a 'can do' attitude. Her knowledge of how to plan an event and suggest different options resulted in a perfect day. The food was amazing that Kerrie and her team prepared and we have already had great feedback from our guests. Mollie who is the Bar Manager significantly catered for our needs and Mollie and her team of bar staff worked hard to ensure that we had a great day and night! Our experience of Bradley Hall was second to none and without doubt we will highly recommend you to others. Carol and I had a perfect and very memorable day. And finally - Kerrie, you were the reason we chose Bradley Hall, first impressions proved to be lasting impressions. Thank you!

Great course and two different 9 hole challenges, one is moorland and the other parkland. Par 3s are great and each one requires a different club and approach shot. Greens are brilliant and pace plus line is a must. We will return.

Rating: 5 / 5

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

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.

Beautiful setting played Championship Course in excellent condition. Really enjoyed the day but would recommend a buggy.Lots of ponds and Bunkers adds to the difficulty.

Played here for the first time today. I can't think of a single fault. Course in great condition, easy to navigate and some challenging holes. At £21 a round it's unbelievable value for money . I look forward to many more rounds over the summer months
