It is a great layout and it had been prepared for the Northern Amateur Championship that was being held the following week and so the fairways and greens were in fantastic condition.

A very good course on a disappointing day!
Really enjoyed playing the Micklem Course at Seaton Carew. We arrived and there was a thick fog over the course that we were told was going to lift but unfortunately, it only lifted slightly so visibility was poor for too much of the round. However, the course itself was in brilliant condition and was a nice challenge. We imagined on a better day we would have waxed lyrical about the course but being the fog hampered the full potential of the course. The greens were quick and the fairways were all challenging. Even if you can place your drives well it is still a challenge to stick on the green and avoid the bunkers. The staff were also excellent and welcoming. Will definitely be back and hopefully in brighter weather.Reviewer Rating

Superb course
Played this course on a very windy day in October. Although there was some major work being done on the course impacting a few holes, it was still a great experience to play a quality golf course. The fairways were running well and the greens were magnificent. It is easy to see why the course is hosting the English Mens Amateur Championships in 2024.Reviewer Rating

Great course that will get better
Played Seaton Carew for the first time and was very impressed. Tough challenge but the fairways and greens were superb. I played with a member and they informed me of some of the course improvements they have planned and it’s good now but I think will become great in the future. Only criticism I would have is the course layout which which felt a bit random at times, hence I was glad I was playing with a memberReviewer Rating

I love playing golf at this course because it's such a great challenge. The layout is excellent and the greens are in great condition. It's my home course so I may be biased, but I really think we have the best greens around.

Great visit, iffy weather
Course was great and a challenge in the conditions as it was very windy and chucking it down in patches. However there were no bad holes on the Micklem course, varying holes with some tight fairways and sma green and other holes with much larger undulating greens. Despite the weather, really enjoyed the course and the test it provided.Finally the main reason for the review, the pro and his assistant (Martyn and Andy I believe) absolutely first class, best welcome from a pro I think I've ever had, great customer service. Honest, open and friendly, it does make a difference. Especially as we were at Slayley the day before and the customer service there was shocking. Great work Martyn and Andy!

Used to be great, now superb..
Just back from trip to NE playing Goswick, Bamburgh, & S Carew. Used to play here a bit when I worked in the area & it was always a great course, however with the recent changes it's now stunning. Couple of members of the group said they rated it up there with the likes of Silloth. Great clubhouse / food, and great hospitality from the pro who accommodated us for another 9 holes as we delayed our journey back down south as we enjoyed it so much! Definitely recommended.Reviewer Rating

Enjoyable
Played the Micklem layout on a Sunday afternoon in early October. The positive experience began with friendly and helpful contact with the manager to make the booking. The food from the breakfast menu was both generous and very well prepared. The course was an enjoyable challenge requiring thought and planning. Having played four other links courses in Northumberland in the preceding two days the layout was a far more challenging one and thoroughly enjoyable. The slight disappointment was the greens having been hollow tined and dressed not too long beforehand. The various groups of members we met were helpful, friendly and also courteous in waving us through as a two ball and also welcoming and chatty in the clubhouse afterwards. Yes the views to one side are industrial but when much of the time is spent plotting the way around the well designed course it really hasn’t spoilt the experience for us. We’ll definitely be venturing back in the not too distant future.Reviewer Rating

Don’t bother
Probably the ugliest course in England. Set between huge gorse bushes hiding any view of the sea and a dystopian landscape consisting of a nuclear power station, rusting defunct oil rigs and heavy industry. Nasty! The course is very difficult with narrow fairways set in acres of ugly scrub and greens with more waves than the North Sea.Reviewer Rating

I will remember the warm welcome from the locals and staff here. Food was also superb.Monday visit at £50 for 2 is an absolute bargain. Must do again.

The old course is a fantastic course. The organisation and management of players is first class ensuring that the round flows with few delays. The course itself offers a range of challenges including menacing bunkers and tricky greens. 14 holes are shared but the sheer size of the greens means you are not impacted by other players. The final hole with crowds watching felt like you were on the final round of the open
