Ravensworth Golf Club

Located in Gateshead near the iconic Angel of the North, Ravensworth Golf Club has been a fixture of the local golf scene since 1906. The 18-hole course is a test of precision rather than brute force. With a Par 69 layout, it features tight fairways and fast-running greens that reward accuracy over length. The terrain includes interesting elevation changes and formidable challenges, such as the blind approach on the 9th hole, named "Spion Kop." Water hazards and distinct bunkering add to the strategic complexity. After the round, the clubhouse offers a welcoming atmosphere where the restaurant balcony provides a direct and memorable view of the famous Angel sculpture nearby.
