Good value for money

I paid £10.99 to ply which feels like good value for money, albeit there’s plenty improvements they could make. The scorecard doesn’t have yardage or par for any hole, just score index, which wasn’t helpful. There’s also no yardage signage along the side of the fairways so hard to know how far from pin unless you’re in middle of fairway. Staff friendly and course flows nicely.

Worth the visit

NUFC have taken some pelters for their condition in the rough winter and spring we've had, so thought it's only fair I write a positive one!

Course looking great and the greens on the majority were absolutely brilliant.

For the price, I think in the dry and hot conditions this is a decent course!

Newcastle united like a links

It's a challenging 18 hole some holes are long for average golfer 4 long par fives and some long par fours and nice par 3. The rough has been cut right back so the fairways are easy to hit The greens are superb quite fast. It's like an inland links course. Hard but very enjoyable

Lovely Greens

We played the course after torrential rain overnight but course was in good condition. If you missed fairways and hit rough it was deep and even in first cut the ball sat down.

The greens were very good and faster than they looked. All in all we had an enjoyable experience and would go back again.

It did the job

The course was still wet in places,which makes it difficult,the rough is a nightmare,slightest off fairway,ball lost,

Biggest issue,playing behind a very slow 4 ball,wouldnt let us through as a 2 ball,spent most of the time on the tee box watching them in the rough,rude,did not even say hello, did the job but wont be returning back sorry.

Worst Golf Course I Have Ever Played

What a shocking golf course. Woke up Saturday morning with the excitement of playing golf in the sun. To turn up to this course with nothing but poorly cut grass, the sandiest greens and overgrown tee boxes. You would think that someone would have fancied cutting the grass over the bank holiday when the weather was nice in anticipation to enjoy some golf the following week, in the sun. Not to mention the thickest rough known to man. If you want to ruin your Saturday afternoon make sure you buy 20 packs of balls to go with it.

What used to be a good course….

It’s a shame to see the state that Newcastle United Golf Club is in right now. I’ve always liked playing up there the odd couple of times in previous years but I think this will be my last visit for a while. I understand that weather plays its part and the weather so far this year has been terrible but the course is generally ran down. All bunkers GUR and baldy greens. Losing balls on the fairway due to it not being cut down and or balls plugging in sodden patches all over the course. Unable to ring bells on holes due to snapped instrument. There was also a temporary green on which we weren’t informed of nor was there any info on website or course conditions when ringing up to book. All in all I feel robbed of £20 to be honest and it’s such a shame as it was once a lovely inland links course to play.

Not the course, the members

Played on a Saturday and got stuck behind the competition. I know they don’t have to let you through but when they’re taking average 10 shots per hole there needs to be consideration for other golfers. Also, you can’t go off the course for 10 mins after the 9th and then expect me to wait. 4hrs for a 2 ball on a reduced length course.

Course was ok but still recovering from the weather and was worth what was paid
