Northumberland 22nd October

[cunnini]

Myself and 'the boss' are having a few days in Northumberland 21 to 23 October staying at a Spa Hotel near Alnwick - i'm hoping to get a round in (I have a permission slip signed!) on 22nd, preferably a links course:-
- anyone local and fancy a game?
- anyone fancy hosting me and able to guide me round?
- in case i don't get any of the above - recommendations?

Quite happy to reciprocate at some point down in Cambridgeshire.

thx

Hi, I'm at a Parkland course, and can not be off on that Tuesday. However, my recommendations would be:

Links:

Dunstanburgh (would be my first choice if links)
Bamburgh
Newbiggin
Seahouses
Alnmouth Village (9 hole course but you can do 18)

Not links but on cliffs and near to you:

Alnmouth GC (Foxton)
really nice course, drains well, Alnmouth is a lovely little village to pop around after

The above are classic Northumberland courses.

Any questions, fire away.

I would only add 1 course to what Lord T has listed and that is Goswick GC, imo, best Links course in the NE.

I played Newbiggin a few weeks back and that is a great course.

Unfortunately I am also unavailable on 22nd.
