Chapel-en-le-Frith Golf Course
A true test of golf in a beautiful parkland setting. Chapel-en-le-Frith Golf Club is located in the High Peak, 13 miles southeast of Stockport, close to Buxton.
As you approach through the foothills of the Pennines you could be excused for thinking that you are in for a mountainous round of golf. Nothing could be further from the truth! You will soon discover that the course, nestling in the valley between Whaley Bridge and Chapel-en-le-Frith, is built on gentle rolling parkland surrounded by the magnificent scenery of the Peak District.
The course offers a variety of challenges designed to test golfers of all standards. The beautifully presented greens are medium paced and vary between flat and significantly undulating. We are very proud that our summer tees and greens are now in play for 12 months of the year. The course uses many natural features (lakes, rivers and trees) to enhance the superbly designed layout which is regularly used for County representative matches.

The Front Nine
The golf course is situated on the valley floor between Chapel-en-le-Frith and Whaley Bridge with beautiful views of the surrounding peaks and ridges. In 2002 we redesigned our front nine. Set on the edge of the Combs Reservoir this is a great front half with many interesting holes. The par 4 fifth presents a true golfing challenge.The brave golfer can opt to cut the dogleg by driving over the field and the trees to be rewarded, if successful, by a simple 8 or 9 iron to the green. Those who opt for the safer route are faced with a driver and a 3 wood to cover the same distance. The most beautiful hole on the course is undoubtedly the par 5 eighth. It has the reservoir running along its length and as you play directly down the valley, with the hills rising around you, the views are truly breathtaking.
The Back Nine
If you are lucky enough to come off the ninth with your score still intact, there is still plenty of work as you face the second nine. The back nine at Chapel is considered to be amongst the most testing in Derbyshire. All of the holes offer individual challenges, like the fourteenth, where you are asked to play across the pond and stop the ball within a few yards to have a reasonable chance of making a birdie. And, if you are still in contention after the fifteenth, you are faced with a real test over the final three holes with two long, tricky par fours and a par five to finish.
