Dog Golf’s most active rover correspondent, Bertie, has been hitting the fairways again sharing her experiences for us all…

We spend a week in Northumbria every year now and Seahouses is the last 18 hole course we have played on this stretch of the coast from Alnmouth to Bamburgh (Reviews for Bamburg and Dunstanburgh Castle to follow).

The course is partly links and parkland and was founded in 1913 and they have a couple of signature par 3 holes which include shots over water.

Dogs are very welcome and the website has a lovely logo describing the club as dog friendly, dogs are aloowed in the clubhouse but not the restaurant. There several footpaths crossing the course to the beach so there is a lot of dog walkers crossing the course and we were not the only golfers with a dog.

Its a good course and they have a dynamic pricing system starting at £35 for peak tee times to £20 for late afternoon. They were advertising winter membership of £140, an absolute bargain!!

Everyone was really friendly and we met members out on the course who were not phased at Berties presence. Bertie has got his golf legs now, he wants to be out an about for the first 4 or 5 holes then he jumps in the buggy and occassionly jogs alongside the buggy, but mostly sits on your knee!!

There are great views overlooking the sandy beach and there were kestrals patrolling the rough.

If you play golf, have a dog and want to do both together Seahouses is the perfect starter course for you.
