The Northumberland Golf Club
What you’re in for.
The Northumberland Golf Club sits inside the racecourse at High Gosforth Park on the edge of Newcastle upon Tyne.
The course was reworked by Harry Colt and later James Braid, reopening in 1920 with an exhibition match featuring Braid and Harry Vardon.
THE COURSE
GETTING ON, AND THE RULES
AT THE CLUB
Play The Northumberland as a member’s guest, for £20.
That is the club’s own member’s guest rate, up to 79% below the £95 visitor green fee. A member signs you in and plays the round with you. Hosted Rounds is the members’ network that finds you the member.
Playing The Northumberland as a guest
How do I play The Northumberland Golf Club as a guest?+
The Northumberland Golf Club is a private members' club, so the surest way to play it is as a member's guest. Hosted Rounds is a UK members' network built for exactly that: join, connect with a The Northumberland member, and they sign you in as their guest, usually at the club's own member's-guest rate rather than the full visitor fee.
How much is it to play The Northumberland Golf Club with a member?+
Played as a member's guest at The Northumberland, the rate is about £20 a round, versus the £95 visitor green fee. Your host signs you in and it is paid at the club on the day.
How much does membership at The Northumberland Golf Club cost?+
Membership subscriptions at The Northumberland are set annually and, as at most private members' clubs, are generally quoted on enquiry, so ask the club direct about current fees, joining fees and any waiting list. If the aim is to play The Northumberland rather than join it, you do not need a membership at all: a member can sign you in as their guest for about £20, which is what Hosted Rounds arranges.
Can you play The Northumberland Golf Club without being a member?+
Yes. The Northumberland allows visitor play. You can also play as a member's guest, signed in by a member at the club's guest rate.
Where is The Northumberland Golf Club?+
The Northumberland Golf Club is in Northumberland (NE3 5HT), in the North East.
