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

Took the kids down for the first time, Elliot was excellent with them. Very informative and good teaching skills. Would definitely recommend.

Played their Seniors Open. The event was extremely well run, carpark marshals, course marshals, half way refreshment hut etc. Greens in great nick and course we'll maintained. Still a few soft patches off the fairways but these look to be drying out quickly.

Oakdale the course was a good test off golf some lovely holes, I would recommend a buggy very hilly in parts very good club house good food and staff would definitely play again, we played second week in September the weather was sunny and dry, parkland course best to play in the summer ☀️

Great course, greens were incredibly quick with well maintained fairways and a beautiful club house with great food and a well stocked pro shop!!

Great place for a game of golf and lovely bar with a lovely stewardess running it that makes this place a nice place to have a drink

Very nice bar, staff were excellent!

I recently became a member here and I absolutely love it the greens and fairways are brilliantly looked after the other members and bar staff are very friendly and helpful

Our group had a lovely day here. The course was in excellent condition. I was happy to sink a few good puts as the greens where very good. The food we had before and after the game was also excellent. The staff where helpful and pleasant. Clubhouse and facilities are also top class.

Great course, excellent condition and s good challenge, lovely clubhouse as well, with seating outside on a sunny day

Fantastic course, they have done wonders since lock down, the course is in wonderful playing condition and the staff couldn't do enough for you, well done guys and keep up the good work

Very very good. Course layout is fun but fair, greens were true and the course condition was immaculate. At £31 it’s possibly the best value round of golf I’ve ever had. Superb, will be back!

Truly is God's country, if he was making a golf course, he made this, wow, tough course, make sure you know where you go, amazing course with amazing scenery - the Par 3 17th - wow

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!!

My first ever visit to this place in all the time I have lived in brighouse & my it didn’t disappoint the room that we were having are meal in plus entertainment was very open with stunning views of Yorkshire s finest greenery . We arrived a bit early but had a loverly chap called Richard have a chat to myself plus my parents explaining the history of the golf club which was a brilliant insight to the evening before we sat down to have are 3 course meal . The food to my taste was amazing it was just cooked right from starters to desert the staff were very warm n helpful to every in the room it s a very unique experience to have a golf club in the centre of a town or just not far from the main area but this place from the large car park great facilities plus very interesting history I would highly recommend plus I am not a golf fan but we also got a cracking view of the fair way with the green just yards away which was just so beautiful . I hope to call back next year or before thank you for the club’s professionalism plus high standards

Just had family gathering Christmas 🎄 dinner at this little gem of a place food was perfect 👌 if u wont nice sunday meal highly recommended especially the dessert apple crumble and custard 🍮

Played on the 22nd of May 2018. Left me regretting that I did not have time to play another nine. Yes it was rough and ready, raw golf, but that is its charm. This course has some of the most spectacular holes I have ever played. The first, what a hole, but the 8th a par 3 for me was the stand out hole. There is a good mix of holes and outstanding views in all directions a real treat for the senses. Played 486 courses, its hard to remember some of them but this one I will always remember and it is one I would choose to play again. Congratulations to all the members who value and support this unique golf club and course. Mike Williams.

Played Saturday morning before the Medal started. Nice experience. Very misty to start, but soon cleared. Course was in pretty good condition. Good greens and fairways. Tees not the best. A couple of the holes in the middle are a little hit and miss, but enjoyed the 1st, 2nd, 8th and 9th. Would definitely play here again if visiting the area. Very helpful staff and members. Views are great. Could definitely benefit with a few arrows and directions to next Tees. In fairness I didn't have a scorecard, so a map may well be on that. Overall... Very good 😁

Fairly short 9 hole course on the side of a hill, where the star of the show is the fantastic location. The views are stunning. The course is no after thought though, with very good fairways and fairly decent greens, and the two par 3's (Holes 7 & 8) are as pretty as you'll find anywhere. They're pretty tricky too. I'd certainly be happy to play here again, although maybe when there aren't 30mph winds around.

I recently hired the golf club for a workshop, the catering was lovely and the bar staff were great. The staff were really friendly, helpful and took good care of us. I will definitely be using the golf club as a venue in the future

We all had an excellent day and are hopefully playing our Seniors competition here next year 🤞. Everything was spot on from our bacon sandwich and tea and coffee on arrival. The condition of all the course, tees, fairways and greens. The friendly service from the staff. The foid afterwards was excellent The thing we struggle with most was getting to grips with the difficulties of the greens 😫. They were in excellent condition but very challenging 😅. Lovely day thank you 😊

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.

Great course. Some interesting holes. Green keepers constantly working on the course. But being respectful towards golfers. Played twice now and wilI return. Excellent value for money.

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.

You forgot how long the drive is uo to this golf club but it has some amazing views and wildlife

I'm a member, so slightly biased. Great course, good clubhouse, great people. What's not to like?

In the context of the weather this year, the greens are so good, almost like velvet. The rough this year has grown so heavily the staff should be commended for their efforts in keeping it under control. Richard Brooker. Member

First time at Huddersfield Golf Club and was really impressed. Course built within the grounds of Fixby Hall, which doubles as clubhouse and events venue. Elevation changes on every hole makes it pretty dramatic. Views of Huddersfield and surrounding area when you get onto the 11th tee. Course had been closed previous day due to rain, but there was no evidence of that apart from the greens were running a little slow. Some monster par 4s, including the 1st at 465 yards off the yellows tees. Plenty of bunkering and undulating greens make it a real, but enjoyable challenge.

I can only speak for the restaurant as I am no golfer. Hearty food at a reasonable price. Friendly service, and a good Sunday lunch menu. Quite casual attire can be worn, as you do not need to be a member. Car park gets very busy at times, so you may have to park on the driveway. Also, parking can be quite tight for larger cars. A great asset for Leeds City Council.

Amazing golf course for the money. Polite staff and a good course with plenty of variety and offers a good challenge for all levels.

The course was in excellent condition despite the weather and the food after the round was excellent
