What the club says: Whickham's course has been developed on rolling hillside and has to be one of the most attractive courses in the North of England. The panoramic views over the Derwent Valley, Tyneside and beyond are simply stunning. It's not a course for teeing up and testing modern day equipment..... the emphasis here is on accuracy rather than length and your ability to get into position to leave the easiest shot to the green.

Greens very good

Stern test-plenty of trees about to test golfers of all ability. I'm off 14 and scored 85 to shoot to my handicap. Greens in great condition and get good roll outs-very impressed. Will be back over the summer ??
