Harrogate's To-Do List

Things to do in Harrogate this week

May 05, 2025

Welcome back to the HGATE Newsletter!

Oakdale Golf Club

Set across 130 acres of scenic valley landscape, Oakdale Golf Club offers a beautiful blend of parkland and moorland golf, providing varied and engaging play from the first hole to the last. One of the course’s standout features is the meandering Oak Beck, which adds both charm and challenge—especially as it winds alongside the 10th fairway and crosses in front of the 9th and 18th greens, demanding precision and focus on every approach.

Whether you're a seasoned golfer or just curious to give the sport a try, Oakdale Golf Club extends a warm welcome to all. It’s a perfect setting to enjoy the game, surrounded by nature and supported by a friendly community.
