Golfing breaks at the Collingwood

In Northumberland and the Scottish Borders golf is part of everyday life with almost every town or village seeming to support its own golf course. We have listed just a few of the 18 hole golf courses which we believe are examples of the outstanding links and parkland courses in our area. And although some of the Border Country’s courses are as testing as any in the world, the main challenge is to keep your eye on the ball amid such splendid surroundings. To make the most of The Collingwood Arms and play your Rounds of Golf, telephone ahead with the courses you wish to play, dates, tee-off times and we will book the rest for you.

Don’t be fooled by Kelso’s flat contours - it’s a bigger challenge than it looks. This is an attractive parkland course well known for the condition of its greens and fairways. The 15th almost certainly is the best short hole in the borders - tricky slopes, bunkers and out of bounds behind the green. The original course was designed by Ben Sayers then re-designed by James Braid in 1930. The mature 18 hole layout was opened in 1980.
