Hot weather
Walked

I thought it was fantastic.

I feel bad that some people leave negative reviews of experiences.

This course was absolutely beautiful and the staff were fantastic.

The loaded chips in the clubhouse was DELICIOUS also.

I can't wait to come back.

Everything was well groomed and quite beautiful. The 18th hole T-box seems to have taken a hammering but I don't know what they can do about that.

There is a lot of crossing over, but I can live with that. It was interesting and fun and friendly staff.

Great course

Course is looking in mint condition considering the weather we have had recently… I like all the slight little changes that have been made even down to the little detail of cutting paths in the grass for people to walk down.

Well done to the staff and I though £27 was a bit of a stretch before playing after past visits however it’s most probably fair but I still feel £22-£25 is a perfect price for the course (going off other courses and prices in the area)

Avoid

We arrived on time to find 2 other groups still waiting to tee off. Everyone was playing so slow that we were waiting on the tee box and fairways 5/10 minutes between shots. No one had the etiquette to allow us through. Walked off after 12 holes over 3 hours later to complain to the golf shop that was closed on a Saturday early afternoon. The course itself is in good condition but it’s so busy and has a lot of beginner golfers. If you usually take 4 hours or under to play a round I wouldn’t bother coming here. It will easily take over 5 hours as they overbook the course! Avoid! Really poorly run!!

Brilliant course conditions

Course played incredibly well despite all the rain. Greens were superb and it was honestly like playing summer golf. I will definitely be back in the summer to see if it could get any better. Really enjoyable experience and the only negative was being quite a compact course we were sometimes waiting for other groups to finish holes or teeing off directly over/towards others. Much more likely down to my ability and confidence as a high handicapper but would definitely think a low-medium handicap would enjoy this challenge more.

Winter golf

Course was in great condition, fast greens and the ground had firmed up from when I played 2 weeks ago. For £15 this is great value for money, I would say it’s a relatively easy course to play with most of the challenge coming from the right hand side if you suffer from the odd slice like myself (the river Tyne runs alongside).

The course was a pleasant surprise

I recommend any one to play here.

Good value for money the Winter Tee boxes were good to play from and the greens were in great condition. Also a picturesque area with a river one side and the trains the other side makes for a nice area to play.

Too many white leaves

Have played this course a number of times and it doesn’t get any better. Don’t get me wrong it’s ok and is fun to play. The big problem is the white leaves on the course mean that it’s is difficult to find balls. Ended up playing with a red ball !
