The greens are awful and have been for 4 weeks. Its in the worst condition now than i have ever seen in the last 15 years. It will take another month before they heal. Societies stay away. oh and by the way i am a member.

Really disappointed. The greens were shocking! Holes and lots of sand which should of been done before now. I'd ring the course 1st to ask what the state of the greens are like. Nice clubhouse on the plus side.

Course was really poor, very wet under foot which is puzzling as there hasn't been much rain.

Reviewed Dec 12 2014
Played during bad weather and the course was good, some surprising blind spots that were a little tricky for me (which is good). Club house a little dated but good atmosphere, chef spoiled the whole day as one of our party was paying for all the food and her card was refused as he insists on cash only. Had to drive miles to a cashpoint.
Good club but take cash if you need to pay for food...

Very hilly
Nice course, although the greens were very sandy and the fairways long in places. The holes were challenging and interesting with plenty of blind shots to make you think about what to do. Will go back later in the summer to see the course at its best.Reviewer Rating

Reviewed Jun 27 2008
Morpeth offers a short course but with some tight tee shots (primarily due to the course being split by a road which always comes into your thinking when standing on a tee with a driver in your hand). It is always in good condition but can step up to being in excellent nick at certain times of the year. My recent visit backed that up - the greens were fantastic - a lot quicker than I expected but more akin to the higher standards that most clubs aspire to.
I believe some more fairway bunkers would benefit the course to test the thinking off the tee box but in general there are parts of the course that will punish you and parts that will be forgiving for any medium handicappers like myself prone to the odd 'loose one'.
The clubhouse is excellent albeit a little old fashioned in terms of decor - but I believe that this suits the members. A good range of beers are on offer and the food is always good. However I would point out that the members here are sticklers for the dress code so make sure that you are properly attired for the course and seperately for the clubhouse!!

A pleasant course in a tranquil and picturesque setting. It has some nice holes without any of them being stunning or dramatic. Overall a good standard example of a parkland course. On the whole the course is quite tight, bunkers left a lot to be desired as did the greens, which were very wooly.

Best greens around!
Obviously there has been a lot of water of late so in places the course has been altered due to this and it has shortened certain holes.BUT don't let this detract from the fact the course is in rude condition and plays excellently. The green staff have done a cracking job and I must say the greens are really the truest around. Excellent greens!

Being new to the area i hummed and harred about joining Morpeth GC. I tried a few of the other local courses before deciding on Morpeth.
The staff and fellow members all seem to be very helpful and friendly.... the ones i've met anyway...
The course is a real pleasure to play and has been in very good condition in the 4 months i have been playing there.
Give it a bash.... well worth it!!
