What the club says: A demanding but picturesque seaside course, the coastal layout of Alnmouth Village club provides an ideal setting for a round of golf. With marvellous views across the seaside and a brisk fresh wind blowing inland from it, the location is like something from a postcard, and fortunately, the course is more than worthy of its surroundings.
There are plenty of challenges to be had here, from the undulating fairways which complicate otherwise straightforward club use from the tee, to the tricky, hard-to-read greens that threaten to play havoc with your short-game. And although it is only a nine-hole course, there are other tees so it can be played as an eighteen-hole for those who wish to.

Traditional and tempting village links
Lovely little 9 hole course which offers 18 via some seperate tees. The layout is largely over the lower level with 1 hole then played up the cliff top before a drive back down. It pays to keep left with several holes bordering the beach but having a double fairway. You do need to keep an eye of players coming in the opposite direction. Limited practice facilities and we didn't stop to use the club house but the village itself is delightful and you can't help feeling your life (and golf) has been enriched by even a brief visit here. Would love to come back and spend a little longer but we had another round planned later the same day!Reviewer Rating

Holiday golf at it's best
I was staying in the village and found this lovely welcoming club. I rented a set of clubs, Taylor Made burners, a hand full of balls and set off for a really enjoyable round of golf. The layout makes full use of land available running alongside the beach and the 2 holes up and on top of cliff. The greens were very true, quick and in excellent condition.The bar afterwards was friendly and good value.
If you are in Northumberland to play, this is worth a game.

A little gem
We played late in October, blessed by autumn sunshine. The course is on a small piece of land and predictably tight. The greens were beautiful, especially considering what time of year it was! A very enjoyable round with spectacular views along the coast.Reviewer Rating

Classic links
Course is a classic links, you play out in one direction and come back in the other, and the wind plays a key role in whether greens are reachable. 6-7-8 is a very difficult stretch of holes if the wind is against. Great view from 7th hole when you go very high up and tee off down on to the links. Enjoyed our twilight round, not many other golfers around but plenty of members of the public, dog walkers etc who were in danger of being hit by wayward balls.(Round played: Jun 2021 - Score: 97 Handicap: 20.2)

Gem
£15 for a 9 hole round. Played twice in two days and impressed. Greens were exceptional. Views great. Couple of minor issues with dogs on the course taking balls but not enough to spoil the enjoyment.Reviewer Rating

Nice greens
Tight, short links course. Excellent greens and tight cut fairways. Good test of accuracy. As it's a 9-holer you play twice there's probably only 4-6 occasions to use driver but really you could leave it at home! I'd revisit though not necessarily with any excitement.(Round played: Jun 2018 - Score: 88 Handicap: 14.9)

What golf is all about.
Played this course after I'd had a rotten few days away with work and it reminded me just how good golf can be at it's purest. This course was just the ticket, wonderful condition in a beautiful setting and whilst a good challenge, not long or punishing which is refreshing.£10 in the honesty box and away for 9 holes in the fading light on a dry and bright but bitterly cold Tuesday in November, what a treat it was. This little course was bone dry with greens the envy of courses costing 5 or 10 times the price.
Genuinely the most I've enjoyed a game of golf in ages and I've played plenty good courses this year. I loved this course and if I'm ever back down I'll be sure to make a point of playing again.
