  1. Ganton Golf Club

    Yorkshire, United Kingdom

    This sandy, gently undulating site was once a North Sea inlet. Consequently, Ganton Golf Club has all the characteristics of a links and a heathland course.

  11. Cleveland Golf Club

    Dating back to 1887, Cleveland Golf Club is one of the oldest clubs in Yorkshire and its 18-hole course just happens to be the only true links layout in the county.

  12. Headingley

    Yorkshire, United Kingdom

    The fairways at Bingley St Ives Golf Club weave through distinct areas of parkland, woodland and moorland as the round progresses from the first tee to the final green.

  16. Halifax

    Yorkshire, United Kingdom

    If you’re looking for something completely different, Halifax Golf Club, known locally as Ogden, is a rather extreme Alister MacKenzie and James Braid design that's laid out over rugged and very hilly moorland a couple of miles north of the minster town.

  17. Hornsea

    Arranged as two returning circuits of nine holes in 1937, the parkland course at Scarcroft Golf Club is a testing track where a number of burns and streams can impede unaware golfers.
