Sunny ideal day.

We played on this well maintained course, using winter mats as requested.. A fantastic sunny day and a great game on the very quiet course. Only saw one deer today. The fairways where quite well drained and the greens were in very good condition.
Very reasonable hot spot deal and will certainly return.
The hills were certainly a work out and pleasantly challenging.
Totally enjoyed it

Windy weather
Walked

Deliverance!

Unfortunately the weather conspired against us with gale force winds and rain but we all managed to get round in one piece. The course is in relatively good condition considering the recent battering that it has sustained from the weather with the back nine standing up a bit better than the front nine which is a bit boggy in places. The run back up the hill from the 14th was utterly savage with wind speeds peaking at 60mph - post match pint in the club house was well earned by all concerned! 🤪

Love this course!

I had a great round at Consett today. Arrived and went into the pro shop where I received a nice welcome and was told I could get myself out as soon as I was ready as the course was quiet.

The course itself was impressive considering the weather we’ve had recently, there were two temporary greens which was totally understandable and was well communicated beforehand in the shop but also on the app at the time of booking.

Overall I was really impressed. The layout is fantastic, some really, really nice holes.

Couldn’t really fault it at this time of year. Will definitely be back again

Lovely course and great value for money.

Was looking for a round on a Friday night and loaded up golf now. Stumbled across Consett at £13.99 so took a punt. Yeah it was winter conditions so the course was shortened down but that’s to be expected at this time of year and the price reflected that (think many others courses could take a leaf out of Consett’s book). However, most holes were still a good length. Course was spot on and the greens were nice and tidy and running well. Staff were very friendly upon arrival as well. Will definitely be returning!

Gem of a course

After being recommended this course I went to give it a try, I payed £12 to play it and it was probably the best£12 I’ve spent to play a golf course, the layout was great and although it was winter conditions and the course was shortened playing off forward tees, fairways were immaculate with having to play off mats or just off fairway, greens were firm and pacy, views from course were great and with a deer on course and bird of prey overhead, what more could you want for £12, only disappointment was I didn’t have time to call into clubhouse, but I’ll be back next week with a couple of friends to play it again.

Good course spoiled

Nice course in a lovely setting. Spoiled by rude / disinterested person in pro shop and passive aggressive members.

No updates to course conditions

Rang ahead to check the course conditions as the weather was poor. Prerecorded message on the phone stated the course was open with no restrictions. Pack up the car and drive for an hour to get to the course only to be told the fog was too thick and we were turned away. 2 hour drive early on a Sunday morning to not even swing a club.

Please update your course conditions hotline to reflect the actual conditions of the course, could have saved a long drive.

Super Course

Super course and scenery. Greens had just been prepared for the end of season but still very responsive. Very friendly from shop staff to clubhouse staff. The young girl who looked after us after the round gave excellent customer service, well done.
The course layout is excellent and enhances the wonderful scenery which was further enhanced by the deer and squirrels what a perfect setting and day. Thanks so much. Considering becoming a member as I live near by.

Well worth a visit

I have played Consett many a time. Extremely windy today but that did not detract from the course layout and condition. Fairways and greens, when I hit them, were in very good condition. Seen an array of wildlife, even a deer running down the fairway.

Very slow round

Enjoyed the course but put off by members with a painfully slow round. As a 2 ball, played behind a 3 ball of ladies who did not allow us to play through despite waiting tee and green for 17 holes. For a course that length, it should not take more than 4 hours to play regardless of ability

Soaking wet course after a week of windy dry weather

Course was soaking wet with fairways completely bogged with mud and not even marked as GUR, balls being lost in the fairway due to how wet it was. After a week of hot windy weather I expected a course so high up to be fine but it wasn’t. Boring course to play, holes are the same over and over; drive, wedge, putt etc etc. The greens were in absolutely horrendous condition, covered in weeds and it must be a course rule for pitch marks to not be repaired, a perfectly straight putt could turn and bounce 5 times with how bad and bumpy they were. Course shouldn’t have even of been open.

Very disappointing

Very good in the past - however this time I think the course should have been closed due to very poor ground conditions.
