Great course and scenic views

Took a friend for his 1st game here … he was blown away with the scenery. Testing course for high handicappers like ourselves but re add lot enjoyable … checking grass off the fairways will be rich in lost bslls

What a view.

Good course set in the lakes. Course itself was in great nick considering how dry its been. Careful not to run through the greens as not much room till deep rough. Ladies in the office were great and nothing was a bother to them. Bar lad was again great and was about to shut but noticed a few coming down the 18th so waited to serve a well earned pint. Overall a very welcoming course with some tricky holes.

Fantastic views

Had a warm sunny June day. Visibility of local mountains was great and staff were very friendly and kind offering us free trolley use. The course is very interesting with some challenging par 3s in particular. Most of the fairways were quite generous, but if you went off there was knee deep thick grass where you were lucky to find your ball. If you had an off day you could run out,which I did!

Stunning setting

Played Keswick today on a calm bright day. Perfect conditions for golf. I live quite near, so often drive past Blencathra but I was still impressed at how stunning the views were. The second hole is an amazing tee shot, right towards the mountain and the views all around the course are amazing.

The course was a bit soggy in places and fairways could be much better. Greens were decent to be fair.

Lovely course with great views

Was on holiday in Keswick so popped here for a round of golf. Was a quiet week day and the clubhouse was deserted which made checking in difficult but apparently someone had called in sick. Looked like very adequate facilities would have been available.

The course was quite hilly with lots of blind drives and elevated greens. The fairways were quite soft whilst the greens were quite quick… sadly a number were being sanded just before I got to them!!

A really nice variation of holes - up/downhill, left/right bending, water/trees but few bunkers. A good challenge and I’d play it again very happily.

Keswick Golf Club

Had a great day at KGC with my sons who are just getting into golf. I haven't played here in 32 years so it was great to go back with my boys. You will be hard pushed to find a more scenic course and we were spoilt with blue skys and mountains dusted with snow. The course is a little damp in places but overall the course is in good nic for this time of year. There was an overnight frost and I was worried the course may not be open but on checking the course web page was pleasantly surprised to see the course was open but temporary greens were in effect. The best news was to come however, around 2 hours before setting off to Keswick I received a call from KGC asking if we could delay the tea time by 30 minutes to allow the greens to thaw out, how is this for first rate customer service. Many thanks KGC we can't wait to visit again soon. Alex

Good day out

First time playing and just after very heavy rain. The course stood up well and provided a very enjoyable challenge. Plenty of variety despite there being no bunkers. A really good winter pick. Good value and very accessible from Keswick. We will certainly be visiting again .

Challenging and iconic course!

The views are breathtaking. But don’t be deceived by the beauty, this course is a wee beasty! Each hole has character, hazards, and challenging lies. Good luck on those two early par 3s.

Keswick

Was so looking forward to playing this course as it is very scenic and located in stunning surroundings. However, very disappointed, course was in shocking condition, greens slowest played on this year, fairways not cut, very little run. For the middle of August, extremely disappointed, dread to think what it would be like in winter.

Would I visit again - no.

Lovely course and a great test of golf

Played Keswick twice in a week with my son whilst on holiday in the lakes. It’s a beautiful in a stunning situation. Despite there being no bunkers it’s quite a test. Some long par 3s and challenging par 4s. The course really makes you think. Whilst having some uphill holes you rarely have a shot above or below your feet.

Lovely welcome and an excellent club house. Highly recommended.
