Interesting cliff top course
Very windy on day played, 9-7-2 course configuration with middle 7 over road away from cliff playing around a housing estate and a little back and forth. However, the 11 on the cliff side are fun to play especially the 4th, 6th and 18th over ravines. Course generous and fairways in great condition, but the greens, having recently been worked on, were terrible and the only down side, apart from the bar closing at 4.30pm. Very enjoyable overall.(Round played: Sep 2020 - Score: 91 Handicap: 16.3)

Poor condition
A very flat course, with promise due to the challenging rough, but considerably let down by awful greens (and pretty bad tee boxes).Not worth the weekend green fee until the greens significantly improve, would not rush back unfortunately.
Hopefully a full winter of recovery will leave them in better condition for next year.

great views and a challenging course
11 of the holes played on the clifftop with great views fortunately we had a windless day which I believe is rare. Good challenge with rolling fairways in good condition, greens not quite so good but it is getting late in the year and signs they were being worked on. Definitely revisit(Round played: Oct 2020 - Score: 105 Handicap: 21.1)

I played Whitby golf club on 28th January and found it to be in great condition for the time of year. The club being a bit unorthodox to what I am used to is a breath of fresh air, this is how golf clubs should be. As far as value for money is concerned it's the best green fees I've ever paid and will most definitely play again when I am up that way. Highly recommend a visit if ever you are in the area.

Course in very good condition given the time of year with only one mat and all greens in play. Only half a dozen players on course even though weather was fair and unfortunately the bar and restaurant were closed. Interesting layout, particularly on the coast side of the course, although relatively forgiving so not such a challenge to low handicappers.

Thoroughly enjoyable round with some great views. The 5th was a great hole with a drive over only what can be described as a ravine. 17th was a 249 yard par 3! Would recommend it.

This a a great little course in the most spectacular location. The front 9 holes are all by the cliffs and are just fantastic. You go over the road for the next 7. These are newer holes and are not quite so spectacular but you do still get glimpses of the sea. The final two holes are back over the road and are a short drivable (if wind is going the right way) par 4 followed by a long par 4.
I thoroughly enjoyed my visit (it helped I won) and will be dragging my husband up there to play it too.
One thing to be aware of. There is a bridge across a ravine which you have to cross twice. If you are scared of heights or have vertigo it may cause a few problems!

Short but interesting with tricky winds
Very muddy in places and required to use mat on fairways. Very windy but sunny day. Fairways and green heavy to allow course to recover from winter/rains. Rough not as bad as pro suggested. Winds made it a challenge but helped to drive a par 4 green however a well hit high 3 iron made around 120 yards on another hole.Reviewer Rating
