Foggy winter golf at Boldon

Course is in good condition for the time of year with all normal greens & good solid fairways (where your ball doesn't plug or disappear) in play which is a credit to the green keeping staff and is in stark contrast to some other so-called "five star hidden gem" 🤣 courses in the area that swapped over to poor quality winter greens and became mud pits weeks ago. Only negative issue for our round was the foggy cold weather and some slow play from two four balls ahead of us. Based on condition and associated playability I would recommend this course ahead of quite a few others in the area.

Good Course

Very good and challlenging course, first time playing here, and will certainly visit again. signage for couple holes can be improved to help navigate first timers. Bar was also closed for non members as there was an issue with the till. Condition of the clurse was excellent for November. Overall a great day.

Ruined by pace of play

This is a decent course but the round was ruined by the pace of play. 4 hours it took to finish as a one ball. All down to the 3 ball in front of me that refused to let me through. They were painfully slow anyway but on several holes they spent ages looking for balls in the rough, still didn’t get waved through. I was on every tee box with them from the 2nd. The 4 ball in front of them didn’t hold them up at all so there was no excuse. We had a ‘discussion’ about it on the 11th tee but to no avail. The member in the group was a disgrace and it would really put me off going back. Although the member I joined up with at the 16th was a good bloke. Maybe I was just unlucky and bumped into the idiot that I suppose every club has.
