Open Competitions in Cumbria

Why Enter an Open Golf Event in Cumbria?

Cumbria's golf is defined by its setting — from Silloth on Solway's Willie Park Jr links above the Solway Firth (an England Top 100 fixture and former host of the British Ladies Amateur) to Seascale's wild west-coast links beneath the Lakeland fells. Inland, Windermere and Kendal offer dramatic upland golf with views across the central Lakes, while Brampton's James Braid heathland design rounds out the marquee tier just outside Carlisle.

Beyond the headline links, Carlisle hosts one of the deepest competition calendars in the county. With the M6 running the length of Cumbria and direct rail from London Euston to Carlisle, the county is more accessible than its rural reputation suggests — and the Lake District itself makes Cumbria one of the most rewarding destinations in England for combining a multi-day amateur trip with the country's finest landscape.
