Holywell Golf Club

Instituted in 1906, Holywell sits some 800 feet above sea level on a moorland and parkland course that also takes in a pair of Bronze Age round barrows within its grounds. Exposed and unpretentious, the club has weathered its share of challenges over the years, including a brush with foot-and-mouth disease in 2001, while remaining a welcoming test of golf above the town.
