2-FORE!-1 best of britain: Derbyshire

Published:

The county of Derbyshire is the home of around a dozen 2-FORE!-1 venues and they’re all pretty tasty.

And here’s the pick of Derbyshire’s classy 2-FORE!-1 crop….great courses you can play at a great price: half-price green fees provided you’ve got a 2-FORE!-1 voucher.

*Breadsall Priory – superb Marriott country club where you where you can take your pick between the contrasting Priory and Moorland layouts. The Priory is a thrilling rollercoaster of a mature parkland track with some spectacular elevated tees while the neighbouring fast-draining Moorland sits on more open, exposed terrain and takes centre stage in the winter – it is playable year-round. Breadsall also boasts excellent practice facilities so you can warm-up in style.

*Buxton and High Peak – short but testing layout with some memorable holes, Buxton is both fun, challenging and quirky to experience: you play over an old quarry, tee up on a par-3 yards from a main road and finish with a driveable downhill par-4.

*Morley Hayes – literally just down the road from Breadsall Priory and another impressive stay and play venue.

*Bakewell – a nine-hole/18 tee course well worth checking out at the heart of Peak District country. You’ll be knocked out by the glorious views.

*Chesterfield – home of a splendid, mature parkland track with a terrific combo of holes. Nearly always in tip-top condition.

*Chapel-en-le-Frith – belting scenic layout plotted on gentle rolling parkland surrounded by breathtaking Peak District panoramas.
