What the club says: Set against a backdrop of the North Sea and surrounded by mature woodlands, the course boasts a unique and picturesque location. Designed by seasoned professional, Jonathan Gaunt, the Par 72 parkland course was built to complement the surrounding countryside. Wide undulating USGA greens and memorable Par 3 shots make Linden Hall a truly enjoyable challenge for golfers at every level.

This course is a really good layout with some good holes and options on tee boxes. Par 3s are very good, be better if they mixed up the distances a bit as were all short from yellows. You can tell this used to be a very good course but now lacks the investment to keep it in top condition. From a value point of view for ?20 it's a steal. Long walks between tees so get a buggy if you struggle.

Well worth a go

If your in the area, this course is well worth a go.
It is a challenge for all standards of golfers. Some excellent holes that you need to think about, brilliant par 3?s and par 5?s that you can have a ho at.
Fairways are well maintained and run nicely. Greens are some of yhe best around. Rough is high and this is the only down side, not sure it needs to be so high, but all courses seem to be doing this. Professional golfers don't play on courses with such vicious rough that courses seem to be producing these days, not just here, but all courses.
Shame that pub/restaurant was closed, but half way hut was excellent.
Walkways/paths between certain holes were poor and can imagine in poor weather they would be interesting.
Overall an excellent course.

Great course

haven't played Linder for a while, but it's always a pleasure, and was really good value. As ever the par 3's are the stars, all four of them are excellent. Bunkers were a bit hard, but probably due to the heavy rains and then warmer weather baking them slightly. All in all though, a great experience as usual.

Very good

Since lockdown eased this course has improved dramatically. The greens were in poor condition but are now rolling very well. Fairways are lovely and the bunkers are beginning to be a lot more playable than before. A tough test of a course. If you go in the rough the chances of finding your ball are very slim so finding the fairway is a must! Some great holes and views. Just a little more upkeep and this course could be one of the best in the area!

Northumberland gem

Course very challenging. Bunkers poor. Walkways between holes long and some poor.
Greens and fairways fantastic. Rough damaging to your scorecard, probably too damaging.
Unfortunately due to current restrictions bar and food restrictions.
Definitely worth a go.
