The Golf Courses in South Devon
The Championship Course - Dartmouth
Golf and Country Club
Voted within the Top 80 golf courses in the UK & Ireland, The Championship
Course is highly acclaimed...with strategic positioning of all year
round tees, sweeping fairways, meandering streams, 12 water features
and superb undulating greens created from the dramatic surrounding landscape,
all built to USGA Championship specification. The course has been designed
to provide an excellent and enjoyable challenge to golfers of all abilities.

is included in all South Devon Golf Tour packages.
The Dartmouth Course - Dartmouth Golf
and Country Club
The 2,252 yard, par 33, 9 hole Dartmouth Course offers a more relaxing
challenge than The Championship Course. Nevertheless, this course was
built and maintained to the same exacting standards as its sister course
- offering the golfer similar challenges of undulating greens and water
features. With two par 5's, two par 4's and 5 par 3's, this course offers
some truly memorable holes including the 4th, 7th and 9th! The course
doubles up as an 18 hole course, playing from the more challenging white
tees. Please note: Unlimited use of "The Dartmouth
Course" is included in all South Devon Golf Tour packages.
Bigbury Golf Club
Bigbury has been providing a challenge for golfers of all abilities
for 85 years. The 18 hole, par 70 golf course is surrounded by stunning
views in all directions. The fairways are wide and the greens fast,
but club selection is complicated by sea winds and by awkwardly placed
trees and bunkers.
Dainton Park Golf Club
A fine and varied parkland course with tree lined fairways and water
features. Designed by Adrian Stiff and commissioned in 1991, Dainton
Park has matured into a good test of golf. As with his other notable
designs, such as the Kendleshire and the Players Club near Bristol,
Stiff hascreated 18 different challenges. Elevated tees offer stunning
views over the surrounding countryside, and wide, inviting fairways
follow the natural contours of the landscape. Numerous bunkers and water
features pepper the fairways and several patches of unkempt rough will
to trap the wayward. Well protected greens require a thoughtful approach
and an accurate short game. Each hole has developed it's own character
and each presents its own challenge.
Churston Golf Club
The Par 70 parkland course meanders along a long strip of typical downland
turf that stretches westward along the cliffs towards Brixham and overlooking
Torbay. The ground is boldly undulating in character with no lack of
natural features, and the surroundings are richly diverse.
