About Ganton Golf Club
Ganton Golf Club may be nine miles from the sea but it has all the characteristics of a links and heathland course. It is an impressive golf course with more than 100 bunkers, some of which are huge while others are small but equally dangerous. Set on open, windswept heathland it is a supreme test of golf with fast greens and firm fairways. Depending on the season you will find various types of gorse dominating the rough.
There are only two par threes but three short par fours allow for a risk and reward strategy for big hitters. You're sure of a great welcome in the clubhouse when you finish.

Our take
A proper test inNorth Yorkshire. We know it inside out, and we will tell you straight who it suits.
- Serious golfersYou will relish it. It rewards position over power and punishes the lazy shot. The kind of course that sorts a group out.
- Higher handicapsTake a buggy, play the forward tees, and you will have a fine day. It asks questions, but it is a fair one.
- Societies & groupsA cracking matchplay course, with enough risk and reward to split the field and plenty to argue about over a drink after.
- WalkersA comfortable enough walk if you would rather leave the buggy in the shed.
