Whickham Golf Club - Crombie Course

Course is good condition. Beautiful clubhouse. Pace of play was good. Lots of temporary greens but understandable with time of year. Could possibly have the green fees cheaper due to the temporary greens.

Played here today and thought the course was superb. Every hole is interesting and requires thought and planning without ever being too difficult for mid to higher handicappers, and the condition was excellent despite the recent weather. No winter greens (although they were marking some out so don't know if that will change soon), not boggy and greens in great condition.

Views are fantastic and lots of trees make you feel in the middle of nowhere, the perfect place to lose a few hours hitting a ball about.

There are some small hills but nothing too taxing and they add interest so definitely a plus point rather than a negative.

There are a fair few blind shots and if you aren't accurate finding your ball can be a bit of an issue, but although I lost a few I still felt these blind shots were an enjoyable challenge.

My only criticism, which is a small one, is that the pro shop wasn't open and no one around to have a chat about the course and practice facilities, although I eventually tracked someone down in the bar. Didn't give the best first impression but that was quickly erased once in the course.

Oh and also there's a driving range but I was told I had to hit my own balls which made it unusable. I don't know if usually you get them from the pro shop maybe?

Anyway regardless of a couple of issues upon arrival I thoroughly enjoyed the course and will definitely be back for future rounds.

A lovely course in a beautiful setting with excellent views.

Amazing round - course in great condition throughout - challenging holes and really well laid out. Def play here again - hired a buggy as a little hilly but would have been fine either way! Thanks to the staff at Whickham Golf Club - made to feel welcome!

Came for a quick practice on my own as I’m playing a comp at the end of the month, overall can’t fault the course, challenging holes and not boring at all, shot 38 points so hope I play that well soon

Still quite wet this time of the year with winter tees and quite a few temporary greens. Nevertheless still very much enjoyed the round. It's a beautiful, somewhat challenging course. Will definitely play again later in the year.

Great place,only my 2nd round but stuck behind 3 awld gits in a pensioners comp was very slow,also they were ve4y rude towards myself and sl9wed down on purpose as they stated very clearly i should not of been let on course behind them and i was deffo not getting let passed,(i was not expecting to be let through),but slow play and marking cards on greens to slow me up was a bit much

Really good morning. Course is good condition considering the weather recently. Was disappointed when 2 holes closed with no information about it and still same price. All in all tho really good course

Im a member at Brancepeth Castle Club but love playing elsewhere that can match the same beauty, cost & challenges. Whickham is up there with the best. Great value for money, stunning scenery, course was in great condition and the clubhouse is nearly brand new. We couldnt understand why the course was so quiet. Already planning on a return trip

Great course to play. Always in nice condition, and tough for more mid to high handicaps like myself. Staff always friendly and pull a nice pint

You can’t fault the course and variety of holes. A challenge in itself regardless of the windy day we had. A nice change from my usual course.

16 quid for a round here is such good value for money...loved the course...great condition...great layout and a good challenge. Will be back
