Play Blyth and you'll realise that there are some things in life that are still great value for money. Pound for pound the 6,400 odd yard 18-hole course on the outskirts of the seaport town in Northumberland has got to be the best day's sport you'll find for your hard-earned cash.

Developed on land where once stood a pit head and its entire mining community, Blyth has matured and developed into a tree-lined parkland course with a par of 72 - but don't be fooled by its gently undulating character. Its first six holes are a test for any golfer and negotiate them without dropping too many shots and you can be set up for a good score.

But beware - there are some cunning water hazards on 9, 12, 13 and 14 that demand a strong nerve and a sure stroke. They don't call the 13th hole "Sinkers" for nothing! Superb greens - many say they are the best in the county - make your round one of the most pleasurable you'll play in many a day.

An ever-increasing record number of are testament to a great day out and many write back for repeat bookings extolling the sheer enjoyment of playing the course and being made to feel so welcome in the comfortable clubhouse where you'll be treated to some first class home cooking and friendly staff. There are some great packages available to suit every visiting party or society outing. Try it and discover one of the region's little gems.
