Linden Hall Hotel Breaks
Nestled in a 450-acre estate at the heart of the Northumberland countryside, the golf course at Macdonald Linden Hall, Golf & Country Club is one of the area's finest.
Set against a backdrop of the North Sea and surrounded by mature woodlands, the course boasts a unique and picturesque location. Designed by seasoned professional, Jonathan Gaunt, the Par 72 parkland course was built to complement the surrounding countryside. Wide undulating USGA greens and memorable Par 3 shots make Linden Hall a truly enjoyable challenge for golfers at every level.
The golf course plays host to several open competitions, including Gents Open Doubles, Ladies Paris Open, and Mixed Doubles Open. For more information on our range of exciting tournaments, please visit www.golfempire.co.uk.
Ideal for a golf break, corporate golf day or just a day out with friends, our extensive golf course provides a friendly environment to enjoy a great golfing experience, enhanced further by the luxury facilities of the Macdonald Linden Hall Hotel.
The Course
The championship golf course at Linden Hall is one of the largest in the area. 18-holes are spread across miles of the large private estate, ensuring a secluded and challenging game for all players.
Designed by respected course architect Jonathan Gaunt, the golf course represents a challenging test of skill for the expert golfer, while remaining an enjoyable course for the less experienced player.
Views across the North Sea or the surrounding woodlands dominate every hole and an abundance of wildlife, from birds of prey to deer can be spotted around the course. Several unique water and sand traps lie in wait for unlucky golfers at the 2nd, 5th, 13th,15th, 17th and 18th hole.
Prepare for your game with our Hole by Hole guide.
For pre- or post-round refreshments the dedicated golfer's lounge in the Linden Tree Brasserie is the perfect venue. Situated close across from the 18th hole and the Pro Shop, this friendly country pub serves delicious, warming food and refreshing drinks.
The Professional Shop provides all the services and merchandise the discerning golfer demands; with marquee brands and bespoke logo items always available.
