Matfen Hall Hotel, Golf and Spa is situated in the charming village of Matfen and is the ancestral home of Sir Hugh and Lady Blackett. This stately home is set in 300 acres of parkland and has been a hotel since 1999. Enjoy true Northumbrian hospitality at Matfen Hall Hotel on your next golf break.
A regular venue for professional and county amateur events, Matfen Hall's twenty seven hole golf course is rated as one of the finest in Northumberland. Set in its own grounds and parkland, it is 25 minutes drive from the centre of Newcastle upon Tyne and 15 minutes drive from the A1 and Newcastle International Airport.
A Grade II listed building, Matfen Hall is a 19th century country mansion in Matfen, the seat of the Blackett Baronets and is now an hotel and country club.
The manor and manor house, West Matfen High Hall, was sold in 1680 to John Douglas. His granddaughter and Douglas heiress married Sir Edward Blackett Bt. in 1757, thereby bringing the estate into the Blackett family.
The present house was built to replace the old manor, in 1828 for Sir Edward Blackett, 6th Baronet. The impressive Jacobean style mansion has a three storey seven bay entrance front with an impressive internal feature of a full height Gothic hall.

Sympathetically laid out on a classic parkland landscape, the 6700 yard course incorporates challenging water features and unique obstacles such as the dry stone "ha ha" wall. It offers an enjoyable test for golfers of all abilities. Ideal for golf breakgroups with a mix of handicaps.
The picturesque and fast flowing River Pont comes into play at several holes including the 14th, one of many strong par fours. The dog-legged 16th is the pick of the par fives, but Matfen's signature hole is surely the long par three 17th with its narrow green sited teasingly just over the river.
Matfen's high quality nine hole par three course is ideal for the less experienced player. Other golfing facilities on site include a driving range, short game practice area and two practice putting greens.
Although Matfen is an easy walking course, buggies are available for hire during the main season of your golf break.
