This is a golf course that should be on all golfers' radar as it offers so much for the visitor. The fees for its quality are excellent, its history unsurpassed, and the fun to be experienced by taking on its challenges to be relished.

Played August 2014 and really enjoyed our game so came back again this year. The course is very scenic and in excellent condition. The greens were reasonably fast, receptive and lovely to play. We've played several courses when visiting the Durham area and rate this the most enjoyable. Good food, very friendly and excellent value for money. We'll definitely be back.

Played this Course in the Four Man Team Open. Which is a very good way to play the course on a weekend. Tremendous Layout. Par threes are amazing. Challenging Par 4s. Par Fives are straight forward, one is 550 yards. Food was very good value. Was also tempted by a very well stocked Proshop. Excellent Course
