Shame, but bad rain the night before had waterlogged the course.
My gripe is that only 13 holes were open but we visitors were still charged £30 full fee. The 13 holes that we were allowed to play were only just playable as most had vast areas of GUR due t maintenance. I think if I were the pro, I would of offered the visitors like us, a good discount or a maybe a voucher for a discounted or free return.

All three of us had a great day at Houghton. Really appreciate the warm welcome and the course was in good condition especially considering the weather around Co. Durham lately.

First time I’ve played here for ten year.
We were made welcome and the course was in great condition including the greens

Very good deal and enjoyable layout.
Nice course with greens in great condition. A credit to the greenkeepers.
We had a nice pint at the patio outside afterwards.

I and 5 friends had booked booked to play a round with golf now and the pro made us play with two strangers to make up two four balls. The strangers although friendly, didn’t want to play with us either. We thought the pro was just being pedantic and after the first hole(and out of site of the pro) just split up as we both requested in the first place. We were playing Scarborough South Cliffs the next day in a two day comp.
Poor start we thought . The actual course is lovely though. Please think of players as real people and not just punters mr. Golf pro.

We couldn’t of asked for a warmer welcome. Both the club pro and the few members we spoke to were very friendly and although the clubhouse is being renovated, we were still offered a cool pint of beer or cider after a great round of golf.
