Top coastal course, stunning views

We weren't blessed with weather but could still appreciate the fine layout here and course was still very firm from 2 weeks of dry and sunny weather. The selection of holes is a real treat with a mix of length, difficulty and strategy all underpinned by some excellent conditioning. Although we left somewhat beaten by the rain I think we'd all look forward to having another go to truly appreciate the fine course and stunning scenery available. Till next time....

Great value, stunning course

A challenging course which is very well maintained. Exceptional backdrop and views, very fair layout, keep to the fairways and good scoring is possible, rough is a genuine hazard. Hard to fault the course at all and at ?20 an amazing price.

Worth more than the green fee

We played Dunstanburgh on our way back from the Open championship and were both very impressed. The greens rolled well, the course was tricky in parts and the views are lovely. The Par 3 13th was my favourite, a 130 yard hole over a steep drop which played into wind on the day and made clubbing difficult.
There is no pro shop but you pick the cards up in the little bar they have which serves both golfers and walkers. The course had a small putting green and a chipping green but no range or net as far as we could see.
If I had one complaint, it was that the pace of play wasn't great as the course was busy with fourballs and societies.
It wasn't enough to ruin the day but I would like to play the course again when not busy so I can fully concentrate. It's definitely a course I would recommend and will look to play again
