Whickham Golf Club
Newcastle Upon Tyne, Durham, United Kingdom
Whickham Golf Club was founded in 1911 and moved to its present site at Hollinside Park in 1938. Modernisation of the original Crombie Course was completed and opened for play in June 2016. The Hollinside Park Course was extended to become a par 71 for men and a par 74 for ladies. This imaginative layout provides a challenging test for golfers of all abilities. It is an inspirational parkland course with spectacular views along the Derwent Valley. Scoring is determined more by accuracy than length as you plot your way through the tree-lined fairways to target small, tricky greens.
