Hickleton is an 18 hole undulating parkland course, designed by
the
famous Ryder Cup players Neil Coles and Brian Huggett. It measures 6446
yards off the back tees and is a fair and enjoyable test of golf for
both the competitive and social golfers alike.
The original 9-hole course was founded in 1909 with the current 18-hole
layout opening in 1976. Since this time, the course has developed into
one of the finest and challenging courses in the South Yorkshire
region. The course has many tree-lined fairways and fantastic panoramic
views over South Yorkshire and the eastern Pennines. In the words of
many visitors to Hickleton, "A superb course with magnificent scenery."
A major feature is the tree-lined
stream that runs through the centre of the course which opens out into
a lake at holes one, two and ten. The course's superb condition and
excellent design are Hickleton's major assets along with the fantastic
panoramic views, which can be enjoyed from many areas of the course.
