Dunstanburgh Castle Golf Club

Great course played on a steamy hot day in July. Greens are in perfect condition with plenty of slopes as you’d expect. Some cracking views and well thought out holes. I’ll definitely be back to play here again and other courses in the area.

On arrival one and a half hours early, after a long drive from north-west the heavens open up and dump at least 2" of rain.

Sat in the club house thinking we are going to get wet we asked for some food, but we were told very politely that the lunch menu didn't start for another 16 minutes. And couldn't order of it until after 12.

We waited the 16 mins then ordered food. Very nice it was. The sun then came out and the course dried up very well.

Some amazing views, great holes, excellent layout and really good greens. A+++.

Despite the recent weather conditions this course was in great condition, some tricky fairways with some rewarding views.

Good geeens, good fairways. Fabulous views! Especially the castle ruins on the back 9. As with most links courses it’s all about the bounce and on several holes on the back 9 even though my partner shot a long straight hit aiming for the pin the ball often pinged off the fairway into very tough rough so difficult to find his ball.. I thoroughly enjoyed the course though but had the advantage of playing it previously so course knowledge a huge advantage.

Only the second time I have played it but has to be one of my favourite courses. In excellent conditon, greens superb and spectacular views particularly the par thre 13th with the view of the castle. My only criticism would be tee boxes missing on some holes and next tee markers/signs particularly for the psr 3 15th

The course is challenging but fair, the greens were excellent. Overall it was excellent value for money. A practice net would be a good addition.

Brilliant setting. Course in fantasy condition and the best greens played this year. Highly recommended

Delightful course in excellent condition. Would however benefit from fairway markers (100 and 150 yards- not all players have gps) and a better pocket map.

Will play again

First time I’ve played Dunstanburgh Castle after hearing so many good reviews over the years. Absolutely stunning links course with fabulous views of the Northumberland coastline. The only negative was the parking around the clubhouse, it was absolutely terrible and for such a prestigious course it was a let down, however please don’t let this put you off playing one of the jewels in the crown of Northumberland’s finest courses.

One of my favourite links course and somewhere I always recommend to other golfers.

However.

Greens not as good as normal and the main disappointment was finishing our round at 16.10 and club hose was closed!!!!!!!!!!!!

The weather was cold and got colder after the first 9.

We were a 2 ball following a 4 ball and waited on every hole. Greens we’re in good condition

Golf course was excellent , we were disappointed that from 4.30 there wasn't any food or coffee available .

Love this course. Greens were excellent and consistent course in great condition. A real test of golf, not the longest of courses but the views are beautiful.

Ecellent conditions for play; a bit of a headwind on the last 5 holes made it more challenging. Course in excellent condition although quite a lot of divots in some 'popular' areas where shots tend to gather.
