North East England Golf Breaks

In many ways, it’s surprising that the North East isn’t mentioned more often whenever the subject of golf weekends in England comes up. After all, the region does border the legendary ‘home of golf’ itself – Scotland – so is it possible that many of us have been unjustly overlooking the North East’s own ample golfing charms down the years?

 

The short answer to that question is: yes! We’re well aware of the delights of golfing in North East England here at findagolfbreak.com, which is why you’ll find various leading golf resorts in this fantastic but underrated part of Britain represented on our website.

 

Nor is it only the sporting action itself that gives you good reason to consider a weekend’s break at a golf hotel in the North East.

OK, let’s get some of the stereotypes out of the way before we go any further. Yes, the sheer warmth of the North East’s hospitality is not a mere myth – you really will find it easier to strike up a conversation with a stranger here than you would anywhere else, whether in the towns, cities, and hotels themselves or as you make your way around your chosen course.

 

The North East also represents excellent value among golf weekends in England, and we’ve worked hard to strengthen that value still further with our selection of featured hotels on findagolfbreak.com.

 

One adjective that no longer accurately describes the North East as it once did, though, is “grim”. Yes, this part of the country may have been an industrial heartland for hundreds of years, particularly in coal mining, but it’s not the grimy dockyards or sooty pits that represent the region these days. Instead, you’ll find vibrant shopping, cultural and recreational opportunities across such happening towns and cities as Durham, Sunderland, Gateshead, and Newcastle.

 

Newcastle, in particular, positively gleams with its spectacularly transformed quayside – and much the same can be said of the similarly rejuvenated Gateshead, which boasts world-leading arts venues like BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art and Sage Gateshead. All of this is without even touching on the fabled Geordie nightlife or the plentiful fine dining also now served up in the North East.

 

Plus, when it comes to landscapes that are by turns breathtakingly picturesque, ruggedly rural, and even industrial on occasion, you can’t beat the variety that golf breaks in this region offer.

With almost 100 golf courses to be found across Durham and Northumberland alone, North East England gives you ample choice of places to tee off. What’s more, when you book your holiday through findagolfbreak.com, you can be sure of getting the very best price for what will almost certainly be an immensely rewarding break.
