If only it was easier to get to from the M6.

Great deal though.

Tempting but the 600 mile round trip might be tricky to get past the Management

Agree 100%

I played it the week after playing with you and Fragger in September. Amazing course and friendly place...would join in a second if it were closer

10 hours in a car with you once a month......

Nice little bolt hole for you, easy walk with the trolley to the course.

Weeks golf every month..

When we went there on the forum trip Donna and I amazed how low property prices were, even compared with SE Wales.....

That wee house might not be such a bad idea....

Is it ever still, warm and sunny there, its such a good deal.

Quite a few static caravans for sale on local sites for cheaper options and they are not bad with sites such as Stanwix having good leisure facilities.

£550 subscription fee.

Don’t know if I could find a pitch and putt for that price down here in London.

No, but warm and sunny is overated for playing golf in.

Purely on my current location and climate.......... Saunton, Country Membership is £572 as second club.

But, both are wonderful

Toyed with joining silloth on a number of occasions, as the drive there isnt to bad from here and like a drive in the countryside.

But always thought the course maybe really busy, due to cost, surprised membership isnt already full ? whats the tee times like there, is it normally bombed ?

Theres a waiting list at Saunton currently, have you applied Ian?

wish I lived closer to saunton, love the course there but dont get full use out of my membership there

 

[HarrogateHacker]

Sounds like a great track, I was tempted a few weeks back when I was looking around. I instead renewed my country membership at Woodhall Spa which is slightly closer. Silloth still on my list so hopefully will get the chance to play it this year.

spoke to Sec a few months back, wasn’t a waiting list for second club country membership at that point... it’s about two hours away.

I’m only an hour from Burnham. I might just have to bite the bullet and join there!

Been on waiting list for country membership at St Enodoc for a year or two....

Tee times are not too bad at Silloth if you are not fixated on playing at a certain time on a certain day, some days busier than others.

Membership numbers are fairly low as its not close to anywhere really and its on back roads for locals. Small local population meaning not many golfers...

Club is balancing member numbers with increasing visitor numbers in recent years, weekend is a great time to play as it is usually quieter on the non comp day at the weekend.

The only issue can be slow rounds, a 4 ball of visitors getting beaten up in the wind can slow things down when the heather is swallowing balls.

Great place to play and if you are having a bad day there is always the views across to Scotland or the fells to look at.

Always fancied playing Silloth but keep missing the turn-off as the windscreen wipers are on full blast

Rule of thumb in Cumbria, if its raining where you are then 30 miles away its usually OK.

Turn off next time and come and enjoy the 30mph wind that everyone seems to experience when they play Silloth

We do actually get the odd day when its reasonably calm and you get a chance to make a few birdies.
