Furness Golf Club, tucked away on the Furness peninsula in Barrow-in-Furness, Cumbria, is an absolute legend for golf lovers. Founded back in 1872, it's the 3rd oldest links course and the 6th oldest golf club in England. James, the organiser, makes sure everyone knows about this hidden gem that offers a knockout golfing experience.
Players get to tee off with the Lakeland hills and the stunning Irish Sea as their backdrop—talk about a scenic game! The course promises a fair yet challenging time, no matter your skill level.
James is proud of the club's welcoming vibe. Nichola and Ben, the new caterers for SeaView, have turned dining here into a real treat. Whether you're a member or just visiting, you'll feel right at home.
Facilities are top-notch, and the club office is always ready to help with bookings or any questions. For winter warriors, there are special memberships to keep your game going strong through the colder months.
Before you book, it's a good idea to check in with the club as bad weather can shut the course down. James wants every golfer to have the best time possible on the green.
Besides great golf, there’s a range of gear and accessories to up your game. And with the 150th-anniversary celebrations coming up, expect some epic competitions and cool Furness GC merch.
For golfers seeking a blend of history, challenge, and stunning views, Furness Golf Club is a no-brainer.
