Ormonde Fields Golf Course

Derbyshire, England

Ormonde Fields Golf Club is an 18-hole par 72 course offering multiple tee options to accommodate golfers of all abilities. From the white tees, the course measures 6,544 yards with a course rating of 71.90 and slope of 123. Yellow tees play at 6,153 yards, while shorter options are available from red and blue tees. The course features significant variety in hole design, with lengths ranging from 109 to 620 yards. Multiple doglegs—both left and right—characterize the layout, providing fair challenges for all skill levels. Elevated greens are a prominent feature, with two holes incorporating split-level greens that add strategic complexity. The course is heavily tree-lined throughout, with mature trees of great variety bordering most holes and penalizing errant shots. Success requires strategic planning and course management rather than power alone. No two holes are identical, maintaining player engagement throughout the round. The design rewards thoughtful shot selection and placement, making it a rewarding test of golf for members and visitors alike.
