Lovely course - Pace of play abysmal

This was my first time playing this course and I was very much looking forward to it. The course was in immaculate condition. However. For reasons I simply cannot understand a four ball would not allow 2 solo players to play through. I myself was behind a solo gentleman in front and I was told on multiple occasions that he had been up on the tee box with this group and they were not allowing him to play through which kept around 3 or 4 groups behind. It took me nearly 2 hours to get to hole 9 as a one ball. In the end I ended up missing half the course because there was not enough light. Extremely dissapointing round and paid for only half a round.

Despite constant reminders on the course to keep up with speed of play etc.

Gem of a course

Been meaning to play here for a good few months and was not disappointed. The course is challenging and in great condition. The awful wind and rain did not put off a very enjoyable afternoon. A gem of a course, I will be back!

Golfing in the mist

Great course and excellent friendly welcome on a busy hot Sunday afternoon. Unfortunately literally as we Tee d off sea mist rolled in .

Around half the homes were played without a clue as to the green position never mind the pin .

Great course tho and worth a visit especially if booked as a hot deal . Absolute bargain for a great track .

Hidden Gem!

Hidden gem outside Newcastle’s centre. I’ve played there a couple of times now, always managed to get a friendly member to take me around and mark my card. The 12th hole is Epic!

Great golf but not friendly

Course was lovely. A bit dry but that’s to be expected. The members however were very unfriendly. They spoiled what could have been a lovely day. Staff were great.
