Close House Golf Club
The Close House Golf Club is located in the grounds of the Close House Estate and offers golfers two fantastic 18-hole golf courses. The Filly Course is an excellent parkland course that has stunning views of the River Tyne Valley and 18 USGA specification greens. The undulating greens provide a real test for your putting skills, but accuracy off the tee is paramount for good scoring. The championship Colt Course was opened by Lee Westwood in May 2011. The design of The Colt tips its hat to the great English golf architect Harry Colt. While nothing is copied directly, the rectangular tees, the bunker forms, and the variety in Par threes are all features conceived from the distilled themes of this most brilliant architect.
