Matfen Hall's parkland course measures over 6,500 yards, and is the perfect resort course, being both challenging and enjoyable for all standards of visiting golfers.
Offer valid between Tue, 01 Nov 2011 and Wed, 31 Oct 2012.
*Offer applied during booking process.
Obstacles to be negotiated include the beautiful but fast-flowing River Pont, which interferes on more than one occasion, particularly on the long par-4s which are the most testing aspect of the course, and the dry stone ‘ha ha' wall, which runs directly across the estate.
A relatively easy walk, Matfen Hall is ideal for golf breaks, with the new 9-hole course easing the traffic over the main track, and offering a great opportunity to those still mastering the game.
At the end of an enjoyable round, the newly refurbished clubhouse, known as ‘Keeper's Lodge', guarantees a warm welcome and a relaxing environment.
At the long par-3 17th, golfers are challenged to find the putting surface, a narrow strip of green perched perilously over the river below.

Matfen Hall is a privately-owned hotel of the highest quality, with a great location in the Northumberland countryside, and also close to the centre of Newcastle-upon-Tyne.
The 53 guest rooms have been sympathetically restored and decorated by owners Sir Hugh and Lady Blackett, helping the hotel establish a reputation as one of the best destinations for golf and leisure breaks in the North-East. With history dating back to 1830, when the house itself was constructed by the owner's ancestors, there is a fine blend of tradition and comfort.
Today's guest rooms all boast contemporary touches like satellite television, whilst retaining the quintessential charm of a country home. For a romantic getaway, some of the opulent guest rooms are furnished with four-poster beds. Award-winning dining and a luxurious spa and leisure complex confirm Matfen's position as one of the premier 4* golf break destinations in the North.
Matfen Hall is home to one of the top spa centres in the region, with an extensive collection of treatments on offer. Specialities include massages, body wraps, facials and manicures, while the spa also has a 16-metre swimming pool, whirlpool, soothing salt grotto, crystal steam room, herb-infused sauna, tropical shower and an ice fountain. The leisure centre's fitness area is fitted with the latest Technogym equipment for a total work-out.
The Library and Print Room Restaurant is among the best eateries in the North-East, and has been awarded two AA Rosetttes for fine dining.
The magnificent Great Hall can be set up for private dining in a grandiose setting.
The Keeper's Lodge serves quality pub meals and good ale.
