[@andrewbonomy1259]

Top video as per normal with you Liam Keep doing what ya doing mate 👍👍

[@robtudor3785]

Seriously. Look at the deals for the Dormy House at Alnmouth Golf course (Foxton). Play Alnmouth, Bamburgh, Dunstonburgh and Sea Houses. I presume the other course you played was Warkworth.

[@johngillies9666]

The course look,s great but I do not drive now so cannot get there

[@numpty6369]

Liam the truth about the little house on the prairie on the M62 ….. A geological fault beneath the farmhouse meant it was more practical for engineers to leave it rather than blast through and destroy it.” And he added: “Outside the noise is relentless but inside it's as peaceful and cosy as any farmhouse.” from Rugby Golf Club a little gem in the Midlands.

[@michaelrobinson7143]

I was a member there for 15 years fantastic course rarely closed and like playing on your household mats. The island is the Coquet Island, great to view puffins birds. As you said the best time to play is in the summer when the grass is burned off it’s fantastic. When it’s windy it’s a great test of golf. Thanks for coming to our neck of the woods.

[@GolfMates]

No problem loved it

Starbucks all day. Another great find,good looking 9 hole course.

[@stevewalker4428]

G'day Liam, long-time viewer, first-time commenter. Firstly, thank you for your content, it caught my eye one day noticing the comradery between Mr Barlow and yourself. I love the banter that seems to be full of good advice. I cannot play due to physical shortcomings and your videos make me feel like I am there, you are talking to the masses but it truly feels you are talking to me. Regarding the debate Starbucks V Cosco I've not tried either, we have a chain here called MuzzBuzz and I have never bothered with it. Home is where the heart is and the cheap but cheerfull coffee. Keep it up M8 I love your work. Steve from West OZ.

Thanks Liam and Pres. My Tuesday Golf Mates fix is a big part of my week. Thanks also for showcasing the little but beautiful courses dotted around the UK. As I said last week, the bucket list just gets bigger.

[@GolfMates]

Ian if I can get out more it will grow

[@petermullin9687]

Liam - great video. You are doing a real service showing that 9-holers are great options everywhere. Thank you. Also, looked like your right foot slipped on that 8th tee; probably trying to give it a little extra into that wind. Swing easy when it's breezy.

[@Simplycomfortfood]

So great that your picking up these hidden gems and sharing the love. We would all love to play the top courses but these are proper grass root courses that have styled the test of time. Keep up with the great work you do for the average golfer who loves the game and the Craic with his mates and fellow golfers. Even all these years onwards it’s still refreshing to view your KZbin videos all best mate keep going.

Cracking course, I played it a couple of years ago on a trip we went on. The course next to it (Foxton Hall) is a lovely course too. I’d highly recommend that!

[@thomashauserman5478]

Liam, you are seriously the best and my favourite golf content creator on KZbin. It's real. I love the fact you play golf course's that every person can access. They are ripper looking course's also. I'm assembling a list of British course's you have featured and I'm planning a trip from Australia to play as many as I can. Can't wait. Nothing wrong with a 9 hole course either. Sometimes it's all you need.

[@GolfMates]

Honestly that is so true

What a course unreal!! I always use your tactic if I am visiting places I haven't been, google earth the place and zoom around to see if any courses it's a great tactic! I love seeing these courses that don't usually get the big marketing, but are just as good as some of the big courses. Great video again Liam great to see that positive attitude back!!

Thank you

First time viewer here, only just got back to golf after a ten year hiatus, loving it again, enjoyed the video, as you said would look stunning in the summer, think in the past I have also been a bit of a snob when it comes to 9 holes, been going for 150 years and they still haven’t built a back 9, what’s that all about? Starbucks or Costa, I swing both ways matey, Coffee that is…. just subscribed. If you’re ever near Mold give me a shout and and I will show you our course.

This is the same way I like to find courses. My first trip to Ireland in 2015 I found a little gem this way, Ardglass GC. Although I don't think it is so hidden anymore. I will be coming to Scotland and Ireland at the end of April for some golf and will be playing one of the courses you played this summer in Ireland, with a mate from NI, Seapoint GC. Also adding Laytown Bettystown GC and a small 9 hole course Rush GC. I will also play 3 times in Scotland, my first time visiting Scotland. I enjoy you videos, keep playing!!

[@GolfMates]

Some proper courses

[@Daveindurham]

I think it was designed a bit earlier than 1984 as you mentioned early in the video. It is a gem but not hidden, Alnmouth is a tourist hotspot in summer with the road to the car park running through the course. Hope you had time to play Beadnell further down the coast or Goswick further up the coast.

You're doing a good job mate, brilliant channel. BTW the island you mentioned is Lindisfarne, which the vikings invaded, but further up the coast. The one you can see I think is Puffin island.
