Gosforth Golf Course

Hidden away in the leafy suburbs of Newcastle lies Gosforth Golf Club. The club is often described as being one of the region’s hidden gems, and its members, who are proud of the well maintained and challenging course, would certainly concur. Since opening in 1906, the course has seen a number of layout changes, and its green keepers are regularly commended for the excellent course conditions all year round. The course is popular with golfers of all abilities, attracting both local community members and golfers who travel to Newcastle to take advantage of the course and its facilities. While most people come as guests of existing Gosforth members or within a society, visitors without a sponsor are more than welcome to play and enjoy the facilities, subject to the usual formalities. The combination of high quality parkland golf and good food and drink promises a memorable visit. The course itself is fairly flat and relatively easy to walk but is blessed with immense character. The 90-acre site is both tranquil and scenic with plenty of local wildlife regularly calling in to inspect the course. The Ouse Burn is a major feature of Gosforth Golf Course, running the length of the course, winding its way down the 18th and through the 4th on its way to the Tyne. Avoiding this can be a test for even the most experienced of golfers. The signature hole is undoubtedly the 18th; at 432 yards from the medal tee, it has been dubbed one of the toughest finishing holes in the region. When you’ve tired of knocking a ball about, you can retreat to the comfort of the clubhouse, whose well-lit lounge boasts splendid views of the course and surrounding environs. The verdant parkland course at Gosforth Golf Club forms the perfect setting in which to enjoy an unhurried round.
