Wonderful afternoon at Alnwick

Very warm welcome from everyone at the clubhouse got us off to a great start. The course was in excellent condition except for a few of the greens on the original part of the course which appeared to have suffered from the the drought conditions earlier this year. Really enjoyed our round. Wouldn't hesitate to play yhe course again and can recommend it to all. There was a 2 ball competition in front of us so the pace of play was superb. Just less than three hours for 18 holes.

Smashing Course, worth a visit

A very friendly club, we were made very welcome in the clubhouse before and after. The course is an interesting mix of the original 9 and extended 9 to take it to 18. Lots of holes to make you think, interesting approach shots and curvy greens. It is undoubtedly a course you would play better second time around once you understood where you needed to be shot wise.

The course was generally in excellent condition although some of the greens on the early holes were a bit patchy. Do not let that put you off though and hopefully it will be remedied soon enough.

Alnwick Castle is not one of the glamour clubs in the area but it is worth seeking out. An enjoyable place to play.

Gotta a 15quid mud week deal for 6 baller. First time I've played and will definitely be back. Couple of greens could do with some TLC but didn't spoil our day. A bit hilly in places but good for the old ticker. Will be back

Good Course with Nice Views

Alnwick Castle Golf Course is a nice parkland course set on the outskirts of Alnwick, the course is on land which is raised above the town giving views over some of the town with nice vistas of the surrounding countryside. Some of the course is set in woodland and I enjoyed these holes the most, others are laid out across adjoining land and they are not quite as interesting but still enjoyable. This course is quite hilly so if you are unfit or have mobility issues then a buggy may be required if available. The greens were of a decent standard.

The club is about to undergo a period of building works with a new club house to be constructed and some alterations of the course planned as houses are also going to be built on some land that the club currently uses.

Overall I enjoyed my round, the scenery was good, the weather gorgeous for the time of year and the course was in good condition. I would visit again.

A nice challenging course

Played here a couple of times and have always found the course in good condition.

The greens are particularly well maintained and true, It's a pretty hilly course and there are a few tees that are well spaced out and require a good walk to get to, So think twice before setting off if you intend to carry your bag.

I have always found this course to be challenging, so you'd better bring your 'A' game....
