Bellingham Golf Club, Northumberland in England
Bellingham Golf Club is situated in the picturesque North Tyne Valleybetween Hadrian's Wall and the Scottish Border. This hostile land, abandoned
by officialdom in the middle ages in fear of the notorious border reivers,
is now a thriving tourist area offering a friendly welcome, numerous places
of interest and a diversity of sporting attractions. The golf course overlooks
the village, with stunning views extending up the valley towards Kielder
Water and the Border Forest Park.
The designer has utilised the natural features to their fullest, with
a pleasing mixture of testing par threes', long par fives' and a memorable
collection of tricky par fours'. The most notable of which are the new
15th, stroke index 1, the roller-coaster 8th and the old 18th with its
two ravines in front of the clubhouse.
The over-riding memory of Bellingham will be the natural beauty of aspect
and the unstinting challenge ensuring continued enthusiasm to the very
last putt.
