Isle of Man.
The Championship links of over 6,600 yards has been laid out
over the sand-hills west of town, touched by some of the great
classical golf architects, but mostly moulded by Nature herself.

good playable condition.

The Clubhouse |
Hazards consist of
heather and bent; whin and broom; heroic bunkers and sandy
wastes. Fairways are always wider than they seem from the tee,
and having been laid with springy Cumberland turf, invite
courageous fairway woods and crisp iron shots. Greens are
subtle, firm, fast, and deadly true.
Challenges met, visitors can enjoy the busy and atmospheric
clubhouse, a meal made with local produce; a wine or beer from the
selection at Bar where there is usually also a guest beer, and above all, a warm Cumbrian welcome. |

It is unsurprising that Silloth on Solway ranked within
Golf World's top fifty UK
courses and is at the very top of the list in terms of customer
value. In 2007
Silloth on Solway Golf Club again hosted the 2002-2007 R & A
Regional Open Championship Qualifier, and in 2007 the English Ladies
Close Amateur Strokeplay Championship. In 2009 the club will also host
the EGU Mid Amateur Championship for the Logan Trophy.
In the November 2008 edition of GOLF WORLD the Silloth links
are in 48th place in the British Isles and 20th place in
England. It gets even better, our position is 11th best for Links courses
in England and we are described as "an exciting layout full of
surprises".
In their review of Britain and
Ireland's top courses for 2008, GOLF MONTHLY has
placed Silloth on Solway in a fantastic 49th place. Their
tribute said "the best value course in their top 100". Cumbria's number
one golf course is now one of the top links courses in England.
