Around Whitburn

A challenging course on a breezy day but thoroughly enjoyable. Very friendly and helpful staff and members from Rachael in the pro shop who confirmed our booking to the players on the course who took the time to explain the changes on the 15th and 17th holes.
Pace of play was good and course condition excellent. Greens were consistent and very well prepared. All the holes provide an interesting challenge especially long par 5’s into the wind.
The last few holes across the road have both wonderful views and tough challenges. The new cliff top tee on the par 3 is a real gem.
Overall a great course that drains well and offers a demanding but fair test of golf!

Hills and views

Course still suffering effects of wet March and mild winter. Had to hit off mats on the fairway. Greens just sanded but reasonable condition. Overall the course is interesting and varied. It was nice to play without the usual howling winds.

Challenging and enjoyable course

Hadn’t played the course for over 6 years so forgotten all the holes. It’s a great layout, every hole offers a different challenge. The greens were the best I’ve seen this year, réceptive but running very true, if you manage to pick the lines.
Overall great value and excellent course. Very friendly and helpful pro shop with great range of new and second hand clubs and equipment.

A very windy day at Seaham

Friendly members to wish us luck before we teed off. Course in very good condition fo the time of year. Unfortunately we had to cope with very strong winds which made life very difficult. Trolleys blowing over on exposed parts of course and needed to try and shape shots to allow fro the strong winds.
Overall it’s a good course, very well maintained and a challenging test of golf. Will return on a day when the wind isn’t blowing.

18 great holes

Every hole presents a different challenge, none of them easy. Even the stroke index 18 has to be carefully navigated. It definately helps to have played the course because some of the tee shotslook daunting but there is more landing area than you may imagine.
Greens good with some interesting slopes made more difficult in a strong wind.
Overall an excellent challenge and if your golf isnt so good then at least the views are fantastic.

Great course

Every hole a challenge. Course in fabulous condition, fairways, greens and tees. Greens have some difficult pins (today) and not easy to two putt from distance.
Overall excellent.

Relaxing round.

Good course. Very open and the rough was down due to the hot dry weather. Greens in good condition with some interesting borrows.
The run of Par 5's in the middle is a bit boring but made up for by the finishing holes across the road by the sea. Stunning views.

A Real Gem

Played the course for the first time. Arrived late due to puncture but the pro reorganised for a later tee when we phoned
Excellent set up. Course in first class condition. Many sloping greens so very challenging. The two signature holes are superb, the 14th being a par 5 on the banks of the Tees. If you manage to hit the fairway you then face a long second with a fairway bunker cutting into half the fairway.
The 17th is a relatively short par 3 over water to a 2 tier green.
Overall its an excellent challenge, beautifully maintained and even if you play poor golf the views are great.
