A view with plenty to admire, and more than a few places best avoided.

For anyone struggling to sleep, may we suggest counting bunkers?

Alwoodley was where it all began.

Designed in 1907, Dr Alister MacKenzie’s first course has had almost 120 years to mature, yet his original layout remains largely unaltered.

We’d like to think he would approve.

Today is International Thank a Greenkeeper Day. 👏

A chance to recognise the team whose work goes into presenting Alwoodley day after day.

From the greens and bunkers to the heather, gorse and wider heathland, their skill and care play a huge part in preserving the character of the Original MacKenzie.

A big thank you to our greenkeeping team for everything you do.

The 4th asks you to trust what the tee does not reveal.

The drive is semi-blind, but there is more room to the right than first appears. Into the prevailing wind, finding that space is important on a par four measuring 479 yards.

From there, the ground can become an ally, with the downslope and bank on the left offering a route towards the green.

How do you approach the 4th?

Heather purple, turf green, bunker sand and timeless monochrome.

Four palettes found across the course.
