Golf course review of Bellingham Golf Club

A small course but quite well maintained when played. Fairways ran true but greens were being spread with fertilizer - the green staff continued to stay in front of the group instead of doing greens when we had played through. An average day out

Golf course review of Bellingham Golf Club

This was my third visit to Bellingham but the first time on a really sunny day, which made the views from the course over the village and surrounding hills absolutely stunning. I have also never played golf on a course so quiet - we saw about 8 other golfers on the course all day, and we played 36 holes!

The course has a mixture of picturesque and fairly bland holes but it was in good condition, although we were not forewarned about the temporary green on the 4th. The rough was fairly clingy which meant we were looking for balls in the first cut in the morning when the sun was low and relecting off the wet dew, but this problem wasn't as bad in the afternoon. All of our party feel this course is let down by the last hole, which is a dogleg par 4 where the drive is forced away from the hole towards the rough and the second shot involves a forced carry over a double ravine to a green perched above the fairway. Maybe it it just us but the hole seems a little unfair to handicap golfers and can leave a nasty taste in the mouth after a good round. Maybe that is just sour grapes from me after I took an 8 there in the afternoon after a decent first 17 holes!

The clubhouse is pleasant and has a new verandah area which we took advantage of in the nice weather. I have played a number of courses since our last visit here and there are better courses around, but for £25 all day, and only £12.50 using 2 fore 1 vouchers, Bellingham offers a pleasant and peaceful golfing experience in the beautiful Northumbrian countryside.

Golf course review of Bellingham Golf Club

A great course to play in the north west of Northumberland. This course was originally only 9 holes and was extended about 10 years ago to 18 however you won't be able to tell. The holes flow from one to the next seemlessly and there are some great challenges. The atmosphere, welcome and hospitality in the clubhouse is also very friendly and inviting. The food is great and you get plenty of it! We try and play this course at least every year as it is so enjoyable.

Golf course review of Bellingham Golf Club

Hidden away in a village resembling a the size of a town this is a gem of a course. If you play there you're more than likely a guest of the Cockers at Riverdale Hall Hotel. If not pay it a visit and have a meal - you won't be disappointed.

A well matured acourse with excellent greens. There is a faur bit of walking to do but buggies are available.
