Trevose Golf Club Championship Course: Review, Green Fees, Tee Times and Key Info

Trevose Golf Club Championship Course Key Information

A number of seaside links in our Top 100 have reaped the benefits of Harry Colt’s legendary architectural genius, either in the capacity of original designer or sought-after remodeller. His Championship course at Trevose on the north Cornwall coast is a great example of a Top 100 UK and Ireland course that offers challenge and fairness in equal measure.

Even before you set foot on the links, you’ll be pacing around in anticipation, for the clubhouse and 1st tee enjoy a tantalisingly elevated setting. From here, you can soak in the captivating views out over the fairways you’ll soon be treading, and on to Constantine Bay and Trevose Head beyond. It is understandably one of the most popular and best golf courses in Cornwall.

The opening stretch is particularly strong, with good positional play required on the 1st to avoid a semi-blind approach. You then need a precise iron on the par-3 3rd, especially if the pin is towards the front of the pear-shaped putting surface where much of the greenside danger lies.

The 4th is then the most famous and photographed of all Trevose’s holes, a wonderful dogleg-left par 5, improved and strengthened considerably in recent years, that takes you right down to the rocks separating Constantine Bay from Bobby’s Bay. This is a great spot to spend a few minutes taking it all in if course busy-ness and your schedule allow, especially if the waves are crashing in.

The links may then move further inland, but the test and challenge carry on apace, with strong holes throughout. There are a number of thought-provoking greens – especially the 7th – that are occasionally blessed with false fronts to expose how far you really carry the ball.

The club is now well-advanced in its four to-five-year course upgrade project, with a number of bare sand scrapes emerging - very much in vogue at the moment - as more scrubland has been cleared.

Trevose is a strong Colt test in a wonderful setting, with a relaxed holiday feel about it all thanks to the on-site accommodation.

What The Top 100 Panel Said

Sue Mawhinney

Good course design and a solid test of golf, making the most of the stretch of land available. Only holes 3 and 4 run alongside the ocean with the remainder moving inland in a variety of directions. The numerous doglegs travel in both directions and, combined with the challenging  approaches to many greens, these will certainly test all golfers, and both faders and drawers of the ball.

Tim Gorman

A course that provides a pleasing test for golfers of all abilities in benign weather on holiday; but no doubt a brutal test in bad weather from the back tees in a club competition. The bunkering uses classic links soft sand with the walls in good condition. They are well-placed and form a major part of the course's defence (I was in seven of the blighters!).

ST ENODOC (CHURCH)
This distinctive links on the Camel estuary lies on Cornwall’s chiselled northern coast 50 miles from Land’s End. Poet Laureate John Betjeman is buried at the far end of the course in the churchyard beside the 10th green, and the vast Himalaya bunker on the right of the superb par-4 6th is one of the most photographed in golf.

PERRANPORTH
Running over elevated ground beside this Cornish resort town, this links was designed by the ubiquitous James Braid in 1927. Located a few miles from Newquay, it is as natural and elemental as they come, with the undulating design working its way over and through some of the most impressive and glorious dunes in the country. Such is the wildness of the topography that very few manmade bunkers are needed.
