Tyneside Golf Club is amongst the oldest clubs in the North East of England, established in 1879 and still widely regarded as among the finest parkland courses in the region. This is a challenging though enjoyable test for players of all abilities. The course is renowned for the quality of its greens and the free draining nature of the land means that it is playable all year round.

Perched high on the 'Falls' of old Ryton village, the course is tucked away in tranquil surroundings and enjoys magnificent views over the River Tyne and the beautiful Tyne valley.

Making a last minute switch from a closed course the conference visitors from London, Manchester, Liverpool and Leeds were extraordinarily impressed by the welcome from Peter, the excellent course and its conditions on a very fine day and I expect they'll be back one day!

Fabulous golf course, really enjoyed it. A good challenge and one to return to. 26 of us went and all had a lovely day despite the weather. The bacon roll before we went out was also lovely.

Lovely track, nicely laid out going down to the river valley. Some tricky holes. Not overly long but difficult at times to find the right angles. Very friendly welcome and a nice outside place for a drink post round. We'll be back!

A fantastic golf course this is one of my favourites with views of the Tyne Valley and challenging par 3s and the iconic coffin hole (13th) . There is also a par 3 course and practice area where you can purchase ranges balls . My son loves the par 3 course . 100% recommend If you haven't played tyneside get yourself a tee time booked

Great course in excellent condition and everyone was so friendly and welcoming. The course is undulating and hilly. Some brilliant par 3's. All the holes were different and a good test of golf. Some lovely elevated tee boxes

The golf course was in excellent condition for the time of the year. The greens were some of the best I have putted on in several months. The welcome in the pro shop was friendly and efficient. After the golf the service in the clubhouse was first class. The Covid-19 compliance was unobtrusive and well organised. The staff were attentive and… friendly, the service was swift and the food and drinks were very tasty and represented excellent value for money. The welcome in the clubhouse was as enjoyable as I have experienced in many months. Overall Tyneside Golf Club offered a wonderful golfing

Played last week. Great course, in very good condition. Greens ran true. some very interesting holes (didn't play them as good as I should have). Didn't try the clubhouse just had a drink outside. Would definitely recommend it and play it again.
