Few destinations in the UK can rival South Devon, which has much to offer the golf enthusiast on holiday. The unique location of South Devon's golf courses ensures delightfully unspoilt views across South Devon to the sea with some incredible cliff top locations overlooking gorgeous sandy beaches and the stunning South Devon coastline. Whilst several more secluded courses can be found further inland within Dartmoor National Park or set amongst more traditional parkland nestling in the scenic rolling hills.
For golf professionals and enthusiasts seeking to challenge themselves over a different course, or players who simply enjoy the gentle exercise of a leisurely round of golf on holiday, South Devon has an enviable choice of excellent golf courses for players at all levels including beginners. In most cases golf tuition and the hire of equipment is available.
From daily membership to residential golf holidays all South Devon golf clubs offer a warm welcome to visitors and several courses offer hotel accommodation onsite. You'll find each course offers superb facilities in beautifully unspoilt locations with plenty of fresh country or sea air.
Each golf course makes good use of the natural features in the landscape creating interesting challenges on the green for each tee. With such lovely surroundings however, you may find it hard to concentrate on your game so for those wanting to brush up on their technique, driving ranges and putting greens are often available with good clubhouse facilities to relax in afterwards offering traditional South Devon hospitality and refreshments.
South Devon has more than a dozen public and private golf clubs offering a mix of 9 or 18-hole courses over varying terrain. To help you plan your golf holiday or day out please visit 'Golf in Devon' where you'll find a list of courses across the region. Visitors to South Devon golf courses can usually purchase a temporary membership or 'pay as you play' with no restrictions on your golf handicap. However we recommend you contact your chosen course in advance to check availability in case any local matches are taking place and check for handicap restrictions which may apply.
Whichever you choose, all South Devon golf courses have superbly maintained greens, situated in spectacular scenery and enjoy a mild climate all year round so visit South Devon and enjoy some of the best golf in Britain!
