he most important feature of a golf club to any visiting golfer, is the condition of the course. However, the clubhouse and its facilities (particularly the food) figure prominently on the list of requirements.

Otley is fortunate to boast near incomparable clubhouse facilities. These have been further improved by a complete refurbishment in recognition of the Club's Centenary year in 2006. Both the dining room and mixed lounge bar afford panoramic views across the course to the valley and moorland beyond. Although the spacious dining room can accommodate up to 120 diners, with room to spare for a band and dance floor, it can also be divided into smaller more intimate dining areas providing privacy for speeches and presentations.

The club is justifiably proud of its first class catering and has invested heavily into providing modern and spacious kitchen facilities. Our chef, Tim Youlden, offers a mixture of good, old-fashioned cooking and intricate a la carte menus to suit the hungriest golfer. Otley Golf Club can cater for all occasions.

A sun terrace and patio leading from the lounge, provide an idyllic spot for enjoying warm summer evenings.

The 19th hole is for the more traditionally minded amongst us. A selection of beers and lagers can be sampled whilst enjoying a frame of snooker. Every visitor to the club will be assured of a warm welcome from the Bar Manager, William Gill and his staff. Service is always accompanied with a friendly smile, whether your requirement is a pint of hand-pulled ale or advice with regard to the extensive and diverse wine list. The Club has recently become accredited to Leeds CAMRA in recognition of the super quality of the 'real' ale served.
