Whitby Golf Club
Whitby Golf Course is a fantastic holiday golf course with fantastic views of N Yorks Coast, run by PGA Professional offering expert tuition. The course is rarely too busy to be able to book a tee time.

There are wonderful views along the coast, north-westward over the picturesque bay of Sandsend to Kettleness, south-eastward over the harbour with the Abbey Ruins set in relief and inland over the rolling panorama of the North Yorks Moors.
It is the ideal type of holiday course, not too long or difficult for the moderate player provided a reasonable degree of accuracy is achieved.
“Wild hitters” can be severely punished, as some of the hazards are quite unusual. The most striking is the wild cleft in the Cliffs known as “Upgang Ravine” which has to be driven when playing the 6th and 18th holes
The degree of driving difficulty on many an occasion is decided by the prevailing wind which may come from either the North Sea or the moors.
Below is a poem regarding our course:
Ode to Whitby Golf Club
On rugged cliff-tops facing north
Across the deep blue sea
Is Straggleton, a holy place
For golfers such as me
The rolling hills, Upgang Ravine
The White House Pub, Hotel
The ozone from the crashing waves
Cut grass, that heady smell
Through summer sun and winter snow
Through hailstones, rain and gales
Us golfers hit our dimpled balls
‘cross fairways hills and dales
And when our game is over
We’ll sit and have a beer
In the comfort of the nineteenth hole
With friendliness and cheer
We’ll talk of pars and birdies
And where we didn’t score
But one thing’s always certain
We’ll aye come back for more
Dave Kirk July 2009
