Kirkbymoorside Golf Course is set just off the edge of the North Yorkshire Moors, established in 1907 the golf course provides the player with some astonishing views of the countryside. Measuring in at 6207 off white tees and 5449 off reds the course is not particularly long however it represents a good test of golf due to the undulating greens and tight fairways. We think this customer review gives a great description of our course:
“Set high on the moor is Kirkbymoorside, one of the real discoveries of the moorland style of golf. As the brochure states, there is strong evidence of the wish to promote the great Yorkshire down to earth traditions of good value and great hospitality. It was evident from the minute we arrived. The clubhouse is modern; it was only built in 1998 and was opened by former Ryder Cup Captain Bernard Gallagher.
The first hole is unusual, teeing off from right outside the clubhouse; it is a short par three over the road, a hole to focus the thoughts from the outset. Not a long course at just over 6200 yards, it is certainly picturesque, with super views from the 13th tee, past the village of Gillamoor and over the moors and the Hambleton Hills.
The drive from the elevated 7th tee is the toughest on the front nine and the hole is rightly index two. The tenth, and a stroll down a leafy bowered path, is very tight, and is not christened the Widow Maker for nothing. There are eight par 4’s over 400 yards, so the driver had better be working well if you hope to finish with a good card, especially as there are only one par five and three short holes. A SSS of 70 can be a tall order at the first time of asking.
All in all, a delightful golfing treat, in manicured condition and a well presented course that is a credit to the greens staff and all concerned.”
