Superb course in immaculate condition. Tee boxes like greens and the greens themselves were superb. It is a very tough test (we played into the wind for about 12 holes). Amazing value and the views are sensational. Highly recommended.

First time playing here. Incredibly tranquil and a fantastic layout - amazing to be 30 seconds from the heart of Newcastle and feels like deepest Northumberland.

The course layout is great and the short par 4’s (almost all of them) make it quite a forgiving course. The 14th is a brilliant par 3 over water (think I liked it more as I squeezed a birdie in).

My only criticism is that this could be even better. The pin positions could easily be ‘flagged’ on a colour coded flat system (front, back, centre) and the fairways needed cutting more closely - they were damp with no roll and were quite long in places. The tee boxes could also have been tidied up. As I say a great course and could be even better.

The second round here. The layout is great. Tough (but fair) start with a lot of short par 4s. The second is a really difficult tee shot. The course was in good condition - greens recovering after being tined. I think this could be one of the best courses around and it just needs a bit more TLC with the fringes of the greens less bare etc.

Excellent staff and only saw one other player on the whole of the back 9. Incredible value too.

I’ve played here a few times now. Liam in the shop is great (nothing too much trouble etc). The course was in good condition - the greens had recently been tined and were a bit of a challenge as a result. You get a good test on this course due to almost every fairway being quite undulating - it tests different shots.

I’ve played here a few times now and it’s a good test, with some really good holes and very challenging undulating fairways. The greens yesterday were poor (had just been tined) but it didn’t affect things too much. Liam (shop) could not be more helpful - great bloke.
