A delightful 9 (12) holes

Hebden is very local to me and as I think I have played it 7 times or so in the past 12 months.

The Good
Views,
Pace of play,
Rarely are there people on more than 50% of the holes at any time,
The 7th through 9th holes are a true joy
7th a par 3 uphill chip challenge,
the 8th is either a Par 3 in good conditions or a wonderful place to lose 5 balls in the wind,
The 9th is an eagle view of the Moors, the club and my personal favourite hole on the area - a genuine Eagle chance for a top notch golfer, the potential to feel good for the likes of me
Clubhouse - nice layout, lovely people
Car park - good size, great sized bays for each car.
Cost
Rarely can you not get a booking, so it's a good fall back if you suddenly have a few hours free to get our there.

The less good (but not bad)
Warm up facilities are basic - one net.
The 3rd and the 5th share a fairway and are fairly repetitive holes.
For me, the scorecard does not explain the course well, after 1 trip round it makes some sense, but without a local telling you exactly where to aim, it is not intuitive from the card.
Some of the paths are trolly nightmares of you're not paying attention
It is moorland, so it is steep in places, if you're not one for hills, this course isn't for you.
The club is (frok my experience) rarely busy, so I have yet to see the clubhouse busy, but this could well be due to me fitting golf on around work, rather than playing on busy days.
The 18 holes are 9 played twice with minimal changes in the tee shots on a few holes. Given the 3rd and the 5th are essentially the same hole, 18 holes can start to feel a chore in places.

Summary
I really do enjoy Hebden Golf Club. There are far flashier courses in the area but very few that rival a lovely pace of play, those views and an almost cast iron guarantee of a game on a whim. That the club still uses an honesty box to play a round shows how leisurely this place can be played. It is a little bit of an unknown gem and I will be back several times this year when my afternoon meetings get binned.

Personal preference is to pay for 18, play through 9, then swing back around to the 7th, play the last 3 holes again and call it a day.
