This is the best course in the North East! Fantastic challenge with a good array of different holes. All the par 3's are tough but the best I've seen. Could play here every week.

Lovely layout, good bar, nice pro shop

First time for me on this course, on a damp September afternoon. The fairways were lush, greens nicely kept but having been hallotined and add the dew, they were running particularly slow, which is a pity. Still managed a 77 which is good round for me. The course is really interesting and has three bridges across ravines which always makes for an interesting journey. Some hard holes but quite a lot of reachable holes, even the par fives. I really enjoyed the whole experience. The pro shop guys were really chatty and knocked a bit off for the greens maintenance and looked after us for clothing and drinks. We eat in the clubhouse and enjoyed the food there. I would definitely come back in better weather as I imagine in summer this is a belter and you would get much more run out on the fairways which would change scores a lot and greens would be harder to stay on i imagine.

Tough

I'm quite a fit 72 year old but some of the climbing on this course very tough also paths going down hill once your trolly gets going very dangerous, the course apart from the walking very good condition and pleasing to the eye ,one downer could not get a sandwich until after 10am ,would not rush back ,nicer courses and more pleasant walking near by .

Best course in the north of England

I come back to play this fantastic course every year. The layout is excellent with 8 ravines to drive over. The short par four 14th is s great risk reward hole. Greens are pure.
