What the club says: Founded in 1893, the course covers less than a hundred acres without giving the impression of one hole encroaching on another. Whilst not long by modern standards, Seascale encompasses a varied terrain at different levels without testing the golfer's fitness. It rises on the 1st and continues down the inland side of the course. Many elements come into play here at Seascale: obviously the seaside winds can significantly effect playing conditions, dry spells can really speed things up here, with fairways running as quickly as greens! and out of bounds, bunkers, streams, gorse and rough test the player's skill and patience but this only makes a solid par or rare birdie all the more rewarding.

Great Course

Difficult Links course. Thick, unforgiving rough. Strong Winds off the coast but very good. - Aug 7 2017

Golfshake Team Review

Other than Silloth, Seascale is arguably the best links golf course in Cumbria. When the wind blows the course does play long, especially the par 5's however, that should not deter the shorter hitters from playing, as accuracy is also key around here. Long grass lines the fairways as well as several hazards. If you visit during the winter, make sure you bring several layers as the wind can be quite hard off the sea. - Jul 26 2016

Great course but was in winter condition. Still good. Leisurely round and the sort of old style course that stands up to modern golf test. I would strongly urge those who think courses need to be over 7000 yards to play here. The wind ensures links shots. Narrow in places to ensure thinking. Great friendly welcome. Only down side was that as played on empty course in winter, was made to pay full rate because was Saturday. Not worth that and would rather travel to Silloth up the coast in future. Obviously Seascale not keen for future custom. Shame as had potential.

Back again for the open competitions and the course just gets better and better a true test for golfers and when you win the singles open is just the icing on the cake ,Angus and rest competition staff as always first class and the catering staff 5 Star ,First open entry to sent away in 2015,The only down side of the singles is the time it took over 5 hours for a 3 ball
