2 reviews of Garesfield Golf Club

I played Garesfield on Monday 21st July and was shocked to find that there wasn’t the ability to book a tee time which I found slightly strange. However, the course itself was well laid out with every hole being different. The par 5 7th is a beautiful looking hole and is followed by two or three more with spectacular scenery and you would not think you were on the outskirts of Newcastle/Gateshead. The course was closed the day before we played but this did not dampen our spirits. The greens were not brilliant to putt on due to the fact that they were still too wet to cut, but I imagine that when they are cut and dry, they will be fantastic. Not the longest of courses but can be punishing if you are not on the top of your game. Although very hilly and a tough walk, it is very scenic and a nice course to play so it is well worth a visit and I will definitely be back for another crack at it when the weather improves.

i was lucky enough to be invited to a carlsberg golf day at gairsfield on the 4/6/09 and i just have to say its one of the best courses i have played at in the north east of england!!!!
the clubhouse is very comfortable and we had a 3 course meal as part of the invitation and the food was really nice.
everything about the club feels relaxed and friendly. i spoke to the pro before i went out to play and he was very friendly and helpful with a few tips on how to play some of the blind holes on the course. the shop was well stocked and the prices were reasonable. my one small gripe about the day was the lack of a course planner but it didnt spoil the day for me really.
the course was in magnificant condition and very well presented. its tree lined with gorgeous views from every hole. i honestly couldnt pick out any "stand out" hole as they were all memorable in there own right. the greens were true (if not a little difficult to read) and all in all i thought gairfield was a superb little hidden gem!
i played really well on the day shooting an 82 and won 1st prize which included a free 4 ball voucher and im already itching to return and play this spectecular and special course all over again.
PLAY IT AND I PROMISE YOU THAT YOU WONT LEAVE DISAPPOINTED!!!!!
