Greens have sadly went way downhill

I’ve played this course a number of times over the years when visiting family nearby. Sadly whilst the course remains a decent test, particularly in the wind, the greens are frankly just not up to scratch to merit charging £40 a round.

Challenging course.

Unfortunately due to lack rain the course was very dry. Greens very hard. Fairways slope left or right or both on most shots and ball just runs off into the rough on a lot of the holes. If played again would be able to judge a bit better where to hit to in order to avoid some of the slopes. It is hilly but you are in the Lake District. That said we did enjoy it, fantastic views , great pint afterwards in club. Worth a visit.

Great golf course

Visited cockermouth golf course while working away from home and what a beautiful course the staff were really friendly. All the members we encountered were friendly one guy was really helpful giving us some course knowledge

The greens were immaculate the views breathtaking we enjoyed it so much we played two days later

The only negative is there is no onsite golf shop.

Lovely course

Some up and downing on the course but loved the layout and in very good condition, played with a member who was off +2 who was a pleasure to play with and gave some good advice on the blind holes. Make sure you have your weetabix if you’re carrying.

Some unique holes and great views

4 of us played the course and it was superb. Some really fun holes, and the greens were in great condition. Quite a lot of blind tee shots which wasn’t an issue as some of us had played here before. There are a lot of uneven lies which adds to the challenge. The views were stunning.

The clubhouse was friendly and the staff were fantastic. Definitely recommend it and will be coming back.

Another day, another course.

This is a James Braid little gem.

A must for any golfer who likes a challenge.

Located on a lakeland fell it has unbroken views of the Western Lake District National Park mountains & westward towards the Irish sea.

Great wee clubhouse accessed via a single track road from the A66 & welcoming staff.

First few holes are UP Hill, so a buggy or electric trolley is advised for those with mobility issues.

Once on top, the course is fairly manageable, with wide fairways & slick greens.

As I said, a great wee course. My group never stopped smiling all the way around.

Will play again for sure!!

Great course

The course was in great condition when we played mid July and we enjoyed the variety of differing challenges hole by hole, a gem of a course we would love to play again in the future.

Amazing Views

Really enjoyable day at Braid designed Cockermouth. The views are incredible and the course in general is in great condition. Unfortunately the greens had just been cored and sanded so putting was a lottery. Shame this was not on their website or on GN as a warning. In spite of the course being up in the hills it is easy walking. Memorable tee shots on 10 & 16. Recommend a visit!!
