About The Area
Wakefield is a strong Yorkshire golf-break base, especially for golfers who want proper local courses, easy motorway access and a surprisingly good arts-and-heritage scene. It works well for societies, couples or groups who want more to do than simply play golf and head straight back to the hotel.
The main local option is Wakefield Golf Club at Sandal. The club describes its course as a challenging par 72, designed by Sandy Herd and bunkered by Dr Alister MacKenzie, with two loops of nine that both start and finish at the clubhouse. It is also popular with visitors and societies, which makes it a good fit for short-break golf. Waterton Park Golf Club is another strong nearby choice, offering an 18-hole championship course in the historic grounds of what it describes as the world’s first nature reserve.
Away from the course, Wakefield has loads to add into a trip. The Hepworth Wakefield gives the city a major contemporary art attraction, while Yorkshire Sculpture Park is only around seven miles from Wakefield and makes an excellent half-day option between rounds. For something more hands-on, the National Coal Mining Museum tells 180 years of mining history, with underground tours going 140 metres underground when operating.
For Hashtag Golf Travel customers, Wakefield works best as a Yorkshire society trip, a golf-and-culture weekend, or a base for combining parkland golf with sculpture, mining heritage, city restaurants and nearby Leeds.
