Good parkland course with interesting features

Enjoyable uncluttered round in sunshine and moderate breeze. Course in reasonable condition except the greens had just been tined and sanded for which we were offered a voucher for a complementary round in the autumn. Very welcoming staff.

Best Greens in the North East

Greens, fairways, bunkers all fantastic and vastly improved since last game here a few years ago. Greens are receptive and roll true, fantastic to see compared to other courses with fast greens, that are just rolled to oblivion and hard as nails. Course requires some thinking, tight front 9 followed by more open back half, this is a serious golf course requiring clubs other than Driver off every tee.

Clubhouse currently undergoing huge refurbishment externally, inside looks great and food was fantastic. One of the gems of the northeast golf scene.

Up and down

Terrific greens and fairways but they are making the course too difficult. What's with a layer of 1 ft high grass surrounding all the bunkers? I've never seen that on a course before. Literally impossible to play out of for anyone higher than scratch. I lost two balls in GUR areas! The grass so long you simply can't find your ball. Clearly trying to make the course championship standard but far too much for your average golfer, wouldn't return I'm afraid.

Visit to Dinsdale

The course was very wet in places which I guess is to be expected after recent rainfall. There is ongoing work visible especially on the 1st hole to rectify this and the majority of the bunkers are being worked on too. Played it in the summer and the greens were among the best I’ve played this year, yesterday they had recently been seeded but still rolled nice. I feel the green fee was a little on the high side for the time of year and condition. I will return but not until next summer.

Great course

Played the course on a Sunday Afternoon, was expecting it to be quiet but it was quite busy. Although the pace of play was quite slow I enjoyed my game.

Will play again

Beautiful course

Well manicured course much improved on last time I played which was a long time ago. Not the most varied layout but some nice quirky holes and a bit of challenging water.
