1. Saunton Golf Club
Overall Ratings
5.0 based on 95 reviews
Golf club offering two classic, championship links courses, the West and East, both of which are Par 71 and set in undulating dunes.
Reviewed By Hastoegraham - Tring, United Kingdom
Both of the courses are a real challenge. The East is the harder of the two but the West is really interesting with a great variety of holes. The greens are very good and there can be some wicked pin positions. We played the West on a damp day but the course drains well and there was little wind. The East was played on a bright windy day. It eas great to be out but the combination of wind and course design made it a least 6 shots harder. But both were a delight to play. The Clubhouse is very comfortable and the staff friendly. A wonderful pro shop. By the way the course guides on the website are very good with sound advice, but I would suggest buying a course planner for each course as there are some nuances that are not immediately obvious, particularly if a pin is placed in a tight corner of a green. Altogether great.

Members are often heard to say: ‘Even if I am not having a good round I still enjoy the spectacular views and realise how lucky I am to be playing golf here.’ At East Devon Golf Club we extend a friendly welcome to members and visitors alike. Situated on the cliff top above Budleigh Salterton, at 6344 yards the well drained fairways, close cropped links turf and challenging greens offer a fair and interesting test of golf. Add to this, the views, colours and the stunning natural habitat and you have the ideal place to enjoy your golf. Thanks to excellent drainage the course is rarely closed due to adverse weather conditions and exceptional golf can be enjoyed all year round. Visit us and you won’t be disappointed.

Played here one evening last week and what a stunning golf course. The professional is a credit to your club, perfect gentleman and knowledgeable. The course condition was fantastic especially the greens, beautiful! For me the front nine is the better half , some fantastic holes on it. The tenth hole though has to be the signature hole, what a fantastic par 3. Only slight criticism but I emphasise slight Is the 16th and 17th holes are slightly disappointing. The clubhouse welcome was very pleasant and didn't feel stuffy at all. Will definitely be back for a game when we are next in the area. Excellent golf course and great value on the twilight deal.

A fun 18 hole football golf and 9 hole golf course over a 25 acre site. Beautiful views and a restaurant too! Football golf is like crazy golf but with a football, with obstacles and challenges and scored like golf. A great fun activity for all ages, from 3 to 93. The par 3 golf offers a challenging, well maintained course with a view of the sea.

With the weather being a bit changeable we decided to visit Whealdream Footgolf and try and entertain ourselves with an 8,10,18yr old - On arrival we were met by Josh (who turned out to be a superstar!) and decided to have a drink whilst the rain past, subsequently we ordered 2 cream teas, cokes and a lovely local ale recommended by Josh, everything was lovely and beautifully presented. The footgolf was a real treat and very different to the standard course and raised lots of really good challenges. Having built up a hunger we decided to eat and to say the food was beautiful would be an understatement amazing all round This place is well worth visiting and the hospitality is second to none since our arrival in Cornwall - as mentioned a special thank you to Josh who made our day really enjoyable Thanks you! And we’ll be back soon Ryan - Clare and family

Considered to be one of the best golf clubs in the west of England, St. Enodoc offers two 18-hole courses with magnificent views.
Reviewed By Moorsey14 - High Wycombe, United Kingdom
We were a 16 strong group of golfers from Herts, with varying h caps, that had played 4 other courses on tour nearby. We are seasoned travellers in respect of playing courses here in the UK & also abroad. 16 resounding plaudits cannot be wrong and in our eyes one of the best courses we have tried to play. We were smiled on by the sun so some of the stunning views were even more so and make sure your camera phone is charged! A welcoming pro shop and bar staff got the day of to a good start and the very very helpful starter who gave us some extra info on the 1st tee and managed to find me on the course to help with my camera!! Lovely club house and food. A real must on your agenda if your in the area but take a couple of extra balls!!

I played trevose early on with my dad. Golf course is a true links course in great condition. The facilities at trevose are second to none, we ate in the clubhouse afterwards and it was very good quality. All staff we encountered were very friendly. On the strength of this visit I would look to return for a golf holiday in the area.
