Member Review: Farthingstone
Golfmagic member Graham Beckett tells us about Farthingstone Golf Club in Northamptonshire...
Farthingstone Hotel & Golf Course,
Northamptonshire.
Tel. 01327 361533.
Where is it?
The course is located half way between Towcester and
Daventry, and is within 10 minutes of the M1 motorway.
What's it like?
Farthingstone Golf Course was established in 1973, and has grown into a
fantastic golf course set in rural Northamptonshire.
Some of the holes are quite narrow, with woodland,
water, naturally sweeping fairways and carefully
contoured greens. There are wide range of holes, with
even a very demanding 600 yard par 5 hole. The course
setting is beautiful and set in lovely countryside,
which is quite and secluded.
The golf course has average facilities, and the course
availability is always good. The price on a weekend is
great value at £20. There are also 16 twin-bedded en
suite rooms available.
This makes a pleasant change to some courses, with
a lovely rural setting and a truly hidden golfing gem
deep in the countryside of beautiful Northamptonshire.
it is well worth a look-in if you're in the area.
