Willie Fernie set out the course at Appleby Golf Club on Brackenber Moor in 1903, twenty years after the club was founded.
Soon after opening, the new layout was described by the Manchester Guardian as “a champion’s course” and “The Sunningdale of the North”.
Even though Appleby is easily accessible from the main A66 road (which traverses the Pennines) the course is set remotely on glorious expansive moorland from where there are panoramic views of the Lakeland Fells.
You can be at one with your inner Heathcliff here, especially if you can negotiate in regulation no fewer than eight par fours that stretch out beyond 400 yards.
If you’re visiting Appleby in early June, you simply have to check out the world-famous Appleby Horse Fair which is a colourful annual gathering of Gypsies and Travellers.
