The Lee Westwood Filly
The Lee Westwood Filly course at Close House was originally built as a nine hole course in 1964, and was extended to 18 holes in the early eighties. The 18 hole course is situated in the grounds of the Close House Estate, providing stunning views of the River Tyne Valley. The Parkland Layout was re-designed and re-opened in 2007. It now has 18 USGA specification greens, is 6000yds in length and a par 70 from the medal tees. The undulating greens provide a real test for your putting skills, but accuracy off the tee is paramount for good scoring.

The Lee Westwood Colt
The design of The Lee Westwood Colt tips its hat to the great English golf architect Harry Colt. The rectangular tees, the bunker forms, and the variety in Par threes are all features conceived from the distilled themes of this most brilliant architect. Within the first year of the new Lee Westwood Colt course opening it was voted one of the top 100 courses in England. There are three layers to the course. Firstly, as you move through the course, every subsequent hole plays in a different direction of the previous hole. Therefore on every shot, each golfer must recalculate the wind direction and strength. Secondly, the holes constantly change in trajectory. Thirdly, there is a changing rhythm to the width of the holes. Variety is the very foundation of the course, and it would be fair to say that it has been deliberately designed so as to not give up its secrets easily.

RANKING #100 “The Colt course has the best set of inland par 3s I have ever played.†“A really interesting and intriguing new course, but as the course guide says, choose your teeing grounds with care for maximum enjoyment.†“On the day I played, the sun was catching the golden wispy grasses in the rough a treat, making the whole place look an absolute picture.â€
