Boldon Golf Club

After receiving a courtesy round as there was a Durham seniors comp on at my home club i rang Boldon pro shop to book a buggy as i have a health problem and unable to walk the course.I was told that they only had a few buggys and they were booked,i was not offered any alternative time to play and use a buggy when they became available so therefore could not play.Very disapointing service.

Played solo, but never stood a chance of being played through. Just over 4 hours for round. Realised why when I saw 4 members spend over 6 minutes looking in rough for a lost ball - only reason it was not longer was that they found it. I later learnt that there was a comp on that day, so he should have declared lost ball after 3 minutes. I better he never marked his card for the penalty.

A few bare patches on a couple of greens but overall the course was in very good condition.

A couple of unusual holes with mounds/ rough breaking up fairways making club selection interesting

First time playing Boldon, really enjoyed the course a good mixture of long and short holes. The practice area could be sign posted better. The nets on the practice area for driving were loose (not a big problem but things like this getting fixed would really improve the look) Some of the greens were a bit bobbly but this is understandable with the amount of rain we have had this month!

Will definitely be returning here! The staff were very friendly and I spoke to a couple of members who were very welcoming.

Played this course for the first time. Arrived 2 hours early as heavy rain forecast when we were due to play. Staff fantastic at letting us tee off then. Course is well presented and was quiet when we played lunchtime Wednesday. Interesting starting holes means no driver needed/allowed for first 4 or 5 holes.

Course was in a bad condition today, fairway grass were like playing in the rough, greens had been hollow tined and the plugs just left on the greens rendering them completely unplayable, had to miss out 5 holes due to them being unplayable, temp greens put on on some holes but just a hole cut in the fairway impossible to putt. Course should not have been open!

Loved playing here..well laid out course with lovely fairways and greens..interesting layout as well.

The course was in surprisingly good condition given the heavy rain during the two days before I played. Only water remaining in some bunkers, the rest of the course immaculate. That while some neighbouring courses were reported to have closed.

I booked a single teetime last minute, but was welcomed by three members to join them. Ended up being a very enjoyable round.

As said, the course was in great condition, though the course layout is a bit quirky, with the first opportunity to take out the driver being the 6th hole.

Fantastic course with a few hills, arrived fairly early and the fella in the shop (apologies, not sure what his name is) let us tee off early which was handy.

The course itself is fairly open plan with wide fairways. The rough was punishing, but the bunkers are shallow in most cases. Greens were in good condition across the board. Staff very friendly, the halfway house is a great touch, it is cash only so but we didn’t have any so they gave us beers on the house as guests which was a lovely gesture. Everyone on the course and around the club was friendly and chatty, enjoyed a lovely pint in the clubhouse afterwards sat in the sun. Will definitely visit again, thanks.

A very pleasant course to play. A reasonable mixture of par 3, 4 &. 5 holes. Greens in good condition

I have played at Boldon a few times but this time was absolutely atrocious. We where followed by loud lawnmowers all the way around the course. While teeing off they would sit on the fairway and continue to move around making it difficult to actually tee off. At one point one lawnmower stoped around 10 yards from me waiting for me to take my shot with it still turned on. It was only when we actually got to the 18th green they started to turn them off when taking our shots. It is a shame because I have really enjoyed playing Boldon until now.

First time playing on another course, was very surprised at how much better quality it was, I am a beginner at best and this course was a treat to play on

Great course , one of my favourite places. A little soggy in places but that's to be expected.
