What the club says: The Lakes - The wonderful par 72 Championship Course was opened in 1997 and plays to 6,572 yards from the championship tees. Set within 180 acres of Northumberland countryside the course design is based around an 'American Style' ethos, with plenty of water to catch anyone not hitting straight from the tee. The famous Longhirst wildlife inhabit the many lakes that frame the fairways, so you can share surroundings with plenty of ducks, geese and swans whilst you search for the birdies! If you're looking for a little piece of Florida on this side of the pond look no further than Longhirst Hall Golf Club. This is a hidden gem!
The Dawson Course - offers a different challenge to The Lakes at Longhirst. Measuring 6,713 yards from the white tees, it is actually longer but the holes have been modelled to create wider fairways and large greens to contrast with the more demanding Lakes Course.
The addition of the state of the art driving range, a visit here is a must, particularly for visting parties and societies.
Both courses have hosted The PGA Europro tour, with the event returning to The Lakes course in July 2017.

A varied mix of holes, scenery is good and it was a championship course at a good green fee.

Played both the Dawson and Lakes Course via booking with GolfNow, £18 each; great value for money. Both courses are exceptionally picturesque and the welcome from staff and members is spot on. Don’t let some of the wide fairways trick you into thinking this is going to be a sub-hcp round. A great test of golf where distance off the tee and accuracy are both rewarded in equal measures. Would highly recommend playing these courses.Course (layout/challlenge)

Played The Lakes after hearing the great reviews.WOW was not disappointed.
This is the best looking course I've played on in the whole North East, and I thought I'd seen most.
Looking at booking again next week and even getting a membership (after telling everyone, I'll never join a course as prefer playing them All)
However I would make an exception in this case, without even playing the Dawson course which rumoured to be just as nice.
On a Sunny day, you would swear you were in the USA on a Florida Course.
Highly recommended
Can't wait to play it again next week.

Reviewed Jul 28 2020 by Paul L - rated 5 out of 5 Challenging course in great condition
Played the Dawson recently as part of a society day and the course was in great condition.From a friendly welcome in the clubhouse where great care has been taken with social distancing measures to great organisation out on the course it was a cracking day out. There is a fantastic practice facility which many of our group took advantage off prior to teeing off.
With a stiff wind on the day the already challenging course played tough but fair. Greens were receptive and rolled true, rough is punishing and watch out for the water (of which there is still a fair bit).

Now considering the club like many others has had to continue maintenance through Covid and combat the unusual long periods of dry weather, the course was immaculate and in superb condition. The fairways were lush and green and the greens were quick and true. I highly recommend this golf course to anyone looking for a round, it’s excellent value and a real hidden gem

Played the Lakes Course today. A testing and narrow course. Take plenty of balls as the course name is a bit of a give away for the amount of water around it. Narrow fairways and small greens are a serious test on the front 9 but opens up slightly on the back 9. Beautifully kept and the greens are immaculate, all set in the idilic Northumberland countryside. Will certainly be back, many times.Course (layout/challlenge)
