Whether you’re a seasoned golfer or a novice, you’ll find this course a thrilling experience.
You can enjoy many other attractions and places to visit in the area including the harbour towns of Maryport and Whitehaven, all within easy driving distance.

Excellent quality accommodation with quality furniture and fittings, everything you need for a totally relaxing break. Tall people should sleep on inside of double bed to avoid low eaves.

Sarah offers a lovely, home from home accommodation. Clean and very tidy. Great communication and information about local area. We ate at the Golf Hotel and Fairy Dust Tea room which both served delicious food. The prom is a short walk away, nice and flat for a long walk. We would recommend this accommodation for a family of 3 and small dog 😊
