3 mi N of Headingley / 6 mi N of Leeds.
Located in a natural rural environment to the north of Leeds, Headingley Golf Club is home to a course that further adds to the city's enviable reputation for top quality golf courses.
Headingley's credentials are solidly underpinned by those who crafted this absorbing layout. Two of the game’s greatest architects, Harry Colt and Dr Alister MacKenzie, both had a hand in making the layout what it is today. Their design sits within a quiet natural setting, with many wonderful views and memorable holes to be enjoyed.
The out-and-back layout roams across the varied and often dramatic terrain, stretching to over 6,500 yards off the back tees. At the good-length par-4 1st the course crosses Adel Beck (directly in front of the green), before heading into pristine rural countryside. The outward half is considerably longer than the inward.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and Sundays, and after 2pm on Saturdays.
Must book in advance.
