Course Details

Hawick Golf Course. Course Name: Vertish Hill, Holes: 18, Yardage: 5933, SSS: 69
A winding hillside course with most holes providing spectacular views of the Border Hills. A number of long par 4's and tricky bunkered par 3's make it a good test of golf.

A tough start with the first and second holes alongside a road (out of bounds), means that accuracy is vital.

The 392 yard 14th, looking towards Ruberslaw and the Cheviot Hills, offers a particularly spectacular view.

The "Vertish" with its subtle natural hazards, is a true test of a golfer's ability, and offers the handicap player a few hours of enjoyment and, above all, the desire to "play it again"!
