What the club says: The 18 hole course comprises 6 outward holes, 6 inward holes and th final 6 holes alternating in each direction. This layout coupled with a varying sea breeze provides an interesting and challenging test for all categories of golfer. Bounded by the Irish Sea to the West, the course affords beautiful sea views which are complimented by the equally stunning views of the South Lake District.
The course is 18 holes set along the shore line off Walney Island at the tip of the Furness Peninsular. The present course is 5976 yards long from the yellow tees with a par of 71 and SSS of 69. The medal course (white tees) measures 6304 with par of 71 and SSS of 70.

Testing Links course with great features everywhere
Challenging links golf on a surprisingly hilly golf course. Somewhat gentle front 6 start a then tough middle 6 holes played into a 2 club wind.Final 6 holes with some short par 4 help you get the card back.Great course for golf society days as very friendly.

True links
Best value links in the North West? Proper links course with all the usual hazards. Pace of play was poor as we were following a county match which was not notified at the time of booking.(Round played: Jun 2021 - Score: 94 Handicap: 22.8)

Great course.
The course was in a great condition considering it had rained heavily for a few days before we played. The fairways were cut well but there's still the odd patch where your ball almost plugs into the soft ground. The rough is very unforgiving and it can easily wreck your card. The greens were of a good pace but slightly woolly in places so they needed that bit extra on some holes. Still a great course to play and the conditions were good unlike the golf.Reviewer Rating

Easily the best course in the Furness Area and a real test of golf, you can play this course 7 days of the week and you will hit different irons/tee shots on every hole, it never plays the same. Club House is nice with good food and friendly staff

This course is a true links course and is quite a challenge when the wind is up but is rewarding if you play well. The stretch of holes along the beach in particular prove difficult in the wind, but an enjoyable challenge nonetheless, especially with its excellent greens.Reviewer Rating

A true links course. If the wind is up it is extremely tough but rewarding if you play well. Excellent greens, probably best in the area. Good value for the course. The stretch along the beach are good. Bar is friendly but other amenities are basic.
