Midway between Edinburgh and Newcastle, nestled amidst windswept dunes on a vast expanse of stunning Northumberland coastline, Goswick is a James Braid masterpiece where golf is played as it was meant — on true links land in all its glory.
This 134-year-old treasure is a little remote. However, that’s one of the many attributes that makes it so special. Golfers who seek it out will be rewarded with an escape from reality to one of the 50 best courses in England (National Club Golfer) and one of the top 100 links in Great Britain & Ireland (Golf World). It’s also one of the world’s few pure fescue links with fairways that deliver a lively bounce and greens that roll fast and true year-round.
No matter the level of play, it delivers a challenge and inspiration for all golfers.
The R&A has designated Goswick as a Regional Qualifying venue for the Open Championship through to 2024, and it recently hosted the England Golf County Senior Finals. Yet with a wide selection of tees appropriate for all levels, every golfer will walk off the 18th green with a round to remember. Then, post-golf, they can savour their best shots as they indulge in a bite and a pint in the lounge of the welcoming clubhouse.
A hidden gem? No more.
