Nice Course

I have played here before, it's a lovely course with gorgeous views.
The greens and fairways were in great condition especially after all of the recent heavy rain.
The walkways and other rough ground were very wet and muddy in places but it has rained very heavily recently.
I would play again.

Great day

Don't let the distance fool you. This is hilly and often you find yourself hitting uphill making short holes deceptively long. However the holes are really interesting and if you hire their individual buggies that are really adapted mobility scooters you will not stop laughing. Better these than walk trust me!
Course in good nick and almost deserted when we were there. Gives you a chance to build your confidence and get a score but still challenging
Would definitely go again!

Great day at Bracken Ghyll

Myself and my wife had a great May Day bank holiday round. the course was in a lovely condition with fairways cut well and surrounding areas well groomed. The young pro was very welcoming and a well stocked shop took my wife's interest. After a full round with honours shared we enjoyed a beer outside looking over towards the Cow & Calf rocks at Ilkley. All in all definitely a day we will repeat.
