Seascale Golf Club

There was no choice.

I played this course in 40mph+ winds and it made it exceptionally challenging but great fun, hitting 3 wood into par 4 greens and nearly driving par 5’s depending on wind direction.

We knew that having to take a 60 minute detour to drive through the center of The Lake District would take us on narrow roads that led to breathtaking views, but we really had no idea that it would lead us to a very fun and wonderful course named Seascale.

Enjoyable, undulating traditional links.

Seascale is probably the most remote course in England and even makes Siloth and Furness seem accessible and anytime you embark on a journey to a remote course you wonder during the drive if the journey will be worth it.

A nice links course, which takes some getting to, it has a lot of undulations a some really good holes.

If there were points on offer for the journey to the course Seascale would be in the top 10 in England.

I wasn't sure what to expect of Seascale, but was very glad that I played it.

I would like to rate Seascale higher but I think it falls just short of being a hidden gem.

Seascale plays second fiddle to Silloth along this stretch of Cumbria coast, and the shadow of the Sellafield Nuclear Plant may loom over the course, yet a visit to Seascale should not be overlooked.
