Cockermouth Golf Club

2 firsts for me. First I’ve never played a coarse where you share fairways with sheep , second first time I’ve played a coarse with no bunkers. Still I enjoyed it. Greens are beautiful A little expensive I think

Was staying locally and caught the bus - it is a very steep 10 minute walk up to the club that knocked the stuffing right out of me - would have liked 45 minutes and a beer before I started to calm the heart rate.

However the course looked fantastic - and the greens were awesome. Can’t fault the staff in the clubhouse, so friendly and plenty of home baled cakes to choose from.

For me though I did not enjoy the many blind holes.

If I was to play it again I would certainly club down off the tee and accept a longer shot in to the green, or accept short of the green and trust my short game. Over the green is no good.

It was 27 degrees - there are no water stations on the course so make sure you take enough out with you

Classic James Braid course, sympathetic to the landscape and using the natural features. Very hilly with a spectacular backdrop and small greens. Very friendly locals, big thanks to Graham, Mark and Dick for allowing me to join them and their much needed local knowledge. The photographs do not do this course justice.

Shame the bar was shut owing to illness but there was a lovely range of cakes for sale.

If you're anywhere near cockermouth it's worth a visit.

Limited facilities but very friendly staff and cosy clubhouse. Course played well with excellent greens.

Played Cockermouth many times whilst on holiday in Lake District.

In very good condition and well maintained.

A very scenic course with ever changing views.

Greens were immaculate, general course is also in good condition. Buggies available if needed , bar was open , staff really friendly

Fantastic golf course, stunning scenery, immaculately maintained all round with perfect greens, wind can be brutal though so be aware.

Had a great day at Cockermouth golf club. The golf course is about a 5-10 minute drive from Cockermouth, and sits within the Lake District national park. There are some lovely views of the surrounding mountains and fells as you go round. The course was in top condition despite the recent rainfall. If you’re lucky you may also get to see some F15 fighter jets fly by. Well worth a visit if you’re in the area.

Course was closed when I turned up

Web site said it was open.

Don't know how to get a refund booked through Golf now

No information on there site.

Lovely course, enjoyed walking round. Only down side is my inability to get the ball to go where I want it to.

Clubhouse was closed for the holiday. Easy to book on the GN app.

Wet start to the day but as the weather cleared, fantastic views over the fells. Played of winter tees and used a mat of the fairways. Unfortunately, the number of people that seem to not know how to repair pitch marks is shocking! The greens were peppered. Didn’t detract too much from a good round of golf.

First time at Cockermouth. Lovely course. Quite hilly and some quirky holes but very enjoyable. Hope to play again.

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.

Overall course was enjoyable scenery was excellent fairways great condition layout was quirky and a good test of golf

Greens had unfortunately been sanded and were unplayable which spoiled the overall experience

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.

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.

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.
