Whitburn Golf Club app for iPhone and iPad

Whitburn is a family-friendly golf club, where visitors and societies are always welcome. We strive to maintain high standards of excellence, on and off the course, and this makes us an attractive venue for our members and guests.

Being close to South Shields and Sunderland, Whitburn Golf Club is easily accessible by car or public transport and regular bus services (E2 and E6) make stops outside the clubhouse, which is also a popular venue for a wide variety of functions and celebrations throughout the year.

Membership at Whitburn offers exceptional value for money as the course has good natural drainage and is rarely closed, which means players have greater opportunity to develop their skills on greens that are renowned throughout the county.
