This course is a joy to play with nothing negative. Friendly, unpretentious and great value all around. One of my favourite course. Just wish I lived closer to play more often.

Fabulous. Excellent round. True Links. Strong wind against on the way out and strong wind behind on the way out. A really terrific day. Great Course. My favourite in the county

I have visited this course on a number of occasions over the past 24 years. Part of its charm was that it was slightly unkempt and rough around the edges. All that is gone now and the course is in immaculate condition - manicured fairways, defined cuts of the rough and immaculate greens. Add in the spectacular Dunstanburgh scenery and you have an all round belter of a links course. Good food in the clubhouse and reasonable changing facilities make this a great option for all day golf.

Excellent day out. Varied holes, tight fairways. Greens immaculate.Very helpful staff. As with all links golf its a test. Not many long holes but what there is, is a true test. You will not be disappointed if you choose tp play here

Very good condition of fairways and greens. Windy due to links course but nice scenery and cheap for the quality.

A really pleasant course with spectacular views. Greens We have CDH nos. Mine is 1010969192, Dan's is 1012708005. I appreciate you've notified your man re Mark, I popped round to see him yesterday and he reckons he will be OK. He even showed me how he felt no pain hitting a 7 iron from his garden. He was going to play today at Goswick but the weather is awful I doubt he will have done. If you could get him a place I know he would like to play. His CDH no is 1003183702.
ere in excellent condition.

The course is in fantastic condition as ever, fastest greens I've played on this year. Rough left quite high, and with the usual wind, it was a tough day. The course, the scenery and the staff are always superb, and the course is one of the best to play in Northumberland.

Great course, probably the best I've ever played. Hard but fair. We played on a warm, sunny day but the wind was crazily strong. 400 yard par 4's end up with a driver and then hybrid falling short of the green! Then the other way round, I was using a 3 wood and a pitching wedge. Great fun and the course is in fantastic condition too.

Reviewed Feb 27 2015

Played February and a pleasure to play on a dry course after our swamps in Sussex! Usually play the course in the summer, but makes no difference really it is still a lovely place to play golf, the wind was whistling and being around a horseshoe bay it always seems to be from a different direction. And I finally managed to get on the devilish 4th green with my tee shot despite a 20-30mph wind! Very friendly members and staff and good food (£24 for a round inc food before and after!). Dont expect super luxury and you will be very happy (kids coming in for ice creams/walkers for some sustenance all day in the summer and all the better for it). Could happily end my days playing here!
