Beautifully set in the Northumberland countryside, Macdonald Linden Hall Golf and Country Club is a superb golf destination, whose parkland layout will be enjoyed by all those who visit, whilst remaining a genuine challenge for even the best golfer. Some excellent holes have been carved out by designer Jonathan Gaunt, who has used the indigenous landscape to create natural hazards, challenging holes and overall a great test of golf.

Once the golf has finished, you can then take advantage of the 450 acres that Linden Hall sits in and start exploring the great outdoors. You can even take a trip to the local Northumberland Zoo if you really are looking for something different. If that isn’t for you, why not utilise the extra facilities Linden Hall has to offer like Spa, Gym or swimming pool.

The new fully refurbished Linden Tree Pub is relaxed and genuine, beautifully in tune with its surroundings and firmly focused on delivering fabulous food and warm hospitality to every guest. Cuisine on offer include tasty beer battered haddock & hand Cut Chips as well as the famous Linden Tree Pub Burger, the Linden Tree Pub has everything a golfer would need including a wide selection of handpicked local ales.

Macdonald Linden Hall Golf & Country Club

At 6846 yards from the Championship tees this course is rated with a par of 72, and threads its way through some testing hazards and bunkers whilst also offering some gloriously undulating fairways.

Threatening woodland and intimidating water will pose a challenge, but good strategy and accurate hitting will definitely be rewarded. Those not scoring well need not despair, however, as the course's location affords spectacular views over the Cheviot Hills and Northumberland's stunning coastline.

The demanding 4th is the signature hole at Linden Hall, where brave golfers must carry the ball over water to a green that is tightly guarded by trees. With water in play on 9 of the 18 holes, you really do need to make sure your accuracy is at it’s best.
