Golf Course Says
Moortown has always held a richly deserved reputation as one of the country’s finest Championship Golf courses. Originally designed by Dr Alister MacKenzie, Moortown is set in 175 acres of dramatically contrasting mainly level woodland and moorland. The founders were fortunate that in 1908 Dr MacKenzie was in the district having nearly completed the layout at Alwoodley, which was already very popular. He joined the deliberations at Moortown, and was soon to realise that here was golfing country par excellence. Features of the original course at Moortown which received much comment were the bunkers, being perfect examples of artificial hazards imitating natural seaside contours. Secondly was the change in green design, where Dr. MacKenzie adopted the larger, undulating seaside greens.

Welcomed at the Pro Shop, and everywhere on the course and clubhouse. From the locker room to standing on the first tee you felt something special about Moortown, which it is. A real test in the rough, so stay clear or your card will suffer.
Great golfing experience which we enjoyed. We will return. Thank you.
