Society Day

Our society day started off with a full English breakfast, which was good. The weather was bright with a slight easterly breeze ie off the sea. As the course was dry the fairways had a bit of run and the occasional bad bounce. The greens too had not recovered from their Spring treatment ie scarrifying and airrating ,but generallt the course was in a reasonable condition, and it would not stop me playing it again.

Nice course right beside the beach. This is the most Easterly course in the country. Tees, fairways, bunkers and greens were all in a good condition. Nice pro shop and clubhouse. 17th hole has a deep gulley in front of the green, stay out of it!

Played Twilight for £18 and very good value at that price. Cliff top course although not a links. Wind is courses main defence although beware of very carefully positioned gorse & bunkerts off the Tee. Very friendly place, went into clubhouse post round and greeted with a warm welcome.

Opening tee shot looks a bit confusing whether from the 1st or 10th (as it was when we played) as they cross over each other. After that a very enjoyable layout with a good variety of holes. Lies tended to be quite tight on the fairways and surrounds, but never unfair. Bunkers were either being worked on or in excellent condition. Expect them all to be good in a few weeks. The greens are quite small and didn't look great, however they played much better than they looked.
Would definitely return.

Enjoyed playing Gorleston. Fantastic location by the sea and fun to be playing the most easterly course in UK. I found it a challenging course with a variety of holes that tested all facets of your game. The improved bunkers really added to the place and it was pleasant playing bunkers with great sand in them after coming out of the winter period. Welcome was very good and enjoyed my days golfing there

After a lot of rain it drained quite well. Although right on the coast it is not a link style course. There is plenty of parking space. The round is usually £55 but after 4PM it is reduced to £35 which is ok in the summer.

A links course with a couple of parkland holes. Right by the sea,it was windy on our day so quite difficult.Fairly wide fairways , proper bunkers i.e. deep. Greens were nice, lots of contours around the greens. Would like to play it again without the wind but being so close to the sea it might be pot luck .

The course is right on the cliffs, which are slowly eating into the course, so 2 holes are now in a more wooded area. An excellent links type based course, where having a chip and run shot is a must, as the greens tend to dry out in the sun and wind.

Golf on the Edge

In my ‘retirement’ years I have been travelling around the country playing many different golf courses. This is proving to be a great way to see places I’ve not been to before.
What better course to play then, than the easternmost in the UK? This is golf on the edge. Sadly the ‘edge’ is gradually being lost to coastal erosion, so parts of this delightful course may not survive long into the future. The signature par-3, 7th green is a mere 18 feet from the cliff edge. The 8th tee is even closer.... don’t hit a big slice here!

Sometimes it’s not easy to score well at a new course but I found this to be very playable, finishing with the same ball I started with, which is always a good sign! I think I got lucky though with today’s wind, from the South, making the clifftop holes downwind.
The 3 short holes all play in the same direction, Southwards into wind, so I didn’t use an iron from any tee, but there’s variety in length of others. Good (small) greens & tee boxes, perfect looking bunkers, some great views.... what’s not to like?

I enjoyed a drink in the clubhouse where I met some friendly members, the club captain and a past lady captain. They would love to see more visiting golfers here so, for anyone wanting an enjoyable round on a course that won’t punish you too much, this is highly recommended.
