Being situated on the Yorkshire coast, the course has many features associated with links golf, including extensive gorse and wind-blasted thorn.
The course follows a traditional links design, with the first seven holes running outward towards the iconic water tower. A double loop of five holes, brings the golfer to Hornsea’s famous inward stretch, possibly the finest six finishing holes in the county.
