Hartlepool Golf Club: a couple of miles south of the seaside and port town of Hartlepool, you'll find the revered golf course of Seaton Carew. A couple of miles north of the town, is the also enjoyable but lesser known seaside links of Hartlepool Golf Club.

Hartlepool's layout is quietly sandwiched between Crimond Beach to the east, and the Durham Coast Line railway to the west. With sea views aplenty, the course delivers everything you'd expect from a beachside links layout. Whereas the front-nine loop plays to the north and west of the clubhouse, the back-nine loop heads south and east.
