Located on the picturesque grounds of Gosforth Park, High Gosforth Park Golf Club, formerly known as the John Jacobs Golf Centre, has a rich history that dates back to its establishment in 1966. Initially starting as just a driving range, the club expanded in 1971 with the opening of a nine-hole course, which was later renamed Wideopen Golf Club. In 1977, ownership of the club was transferred to the High Gosforth Park Company, who owned the entire Gosforth Park land. Following the expiration of the lease in 1986, the club was handed over to Gosforth Park Golfing Complex, who subsequently changed the name to Parklands Golf Club.
ARC (previously Northern Racing) acquired High Gosforth Park in 1994 and took over the management of Parklands in November 2001. The golf club then underwent a name change to High Gosforth Park Golf Club in 2023.
