Rated the 4th best course in Nottinghamshire, Worksop is very much a classic English woodland course and was made famous around the world by the exploits of its most famous ever member - Lee Westwood. The former European No.1, as far as reports go, still holds the course record on his home course and has been known to 'drop by' on occasion. There are a number of superb holes on this enjoyable but testing layout, most notably the 9th and 10th, two very long par fives that will test your long-iron play and shot making from inside 90-yards. The course then enjoys a good run of holes from the 12th onwards and finishes with the superb 18th - a par three right beside the clubhouse!

Ranked 7th best course in Nottinghamshire, Oakmere Park Golf Club was established in 1977 based upon designs by Frank Pennink. Its Admirals course is certainly one of the finest in the Nottinghamshire region. A real gem of an eighteen hole course, it will challenge even the most experienced and confident of golfers amongst you, so be sure to be prepared for it when you tee off. There are plenty of hazards all around that will perhaps instil a little fear in you, but if you take them on the rewards are there to be had. As you hole out on eighteenth green, you may feel in need of a light refreshment. Head then for the clubhouse where the friendly atmosphere makes for the perfect place to relax.

Rated 6th best course in Derbyshire, Matlock Golf Club celebrated its centenary year in 2006 and in the time since then its course has blossomed into one of the finest in the entire Derbyshire region. It was designed by Tom Williamson, and his efforts have certainly paid dividends, as the course is a fine example of a moorland layout and is enjoyed not only by local golfers but also those visiting or passing through the region. It is by no means the longest, measuring under 6000 yards from the tee on the first hole to the pin on the eighteenth. Still though, each hole presents a unique and interesting challenge for you to take on and enjoy.

The course features a range of water hazards and the staff pride themselves on their fast multi-tiered greens and well-groomed fairways The feature hole at Burton-on-Trent is the Augusta-style 18th hole. It's a medium-length par 4, downhill, with the fairway sloping right to left. The tricky second shot needs to carry over a lake to a green beside the clubhouse, so no pressure then!

Rated 10th best course in Leicestershire, Cameron Sinclair was the golf course architect who lent his skills to the design of the fabulous course at Cosby Golf Club away back in the early 1890s. And based upon his designs, it first opened in 1895 making it one of the oldest golf courses in the whole Leicestershire region. It has built up for itself a formidable reputation and is well respected by golfers for the sound test of ability it offers. Over the last 8 years, the majority of holes have been altered to make it more interesting, culminating in a large construction project of new 6th and 8th tees and the re-modelling of the 7th green, which gives a beautiful view as you round the 7th, a tricky but beautuful par 4, guarded short left by a natural pond. Indeed, there is enough here to challenge and excite the best players without intimidating those newer to the game .

Cavendish is rated the best course in Derbyshire. In 1923, Dr. Alister MacKenzie, one of the finest landscape architects of the twentieth century, was commissioned by the Duke of Devonshire to design a new eighteen-hole golf course on his expansive estate. The result was the magnificent Cavendish course, which is as splendid today as it was in the 1920s. A par 65, it is designed upon undulating woodland and dense copses, making it a challenge for golfers of all abilities. Its feature hole is probably the par three fifth, from which you need to hit the green from your elevated tee shot or risk being caught in any of the green's many surrounding traps. Accuracy, concentration and awareness of the wind speed and direction are essential on this hole especially.

Rated 3rd best course in Shropshire, Shifnal Golf Club is on the outskirts of the village between Shrewsbury and Wolverhampton. Previously a ten-hole course at nearby Brimstree Hill, the members were able to buy the existing Georgian property and 113 acres of parkland in 1963 and turn it into the present 18-hole course. The layout was designed by Frank Pennink of C. K. Cotton & Co. although the initial work of clearing, land drainage and fairways was done by the members. The course is now one of the best in the county with it's natural features shown in their finest form. Measuring 6,468-yards, Shifnal offers the golfer some really challenging holes, which, at first, may look easy but soon earn the player's respect.
