Britain is blessed with some of the finest golf courses in the world. From the historic splendour of St Andrews in Scotland to the rugged challenge of Royal St George\u2019s in Kent, these isles play host to some spectacular courses and Golf courses in Cornwall are no different.<\/p>\n

Here in Cornwall, golf is a way of life. Combined with our world class food, beaches and history, it means we\u2019ve an attractive proposition for any keen linksman. Indeed, golf in Cornwall has a rich and inclusive history.<\/p>\n

One of the oldest functioning golf courses in Cornwall is West Cornwall at Lelant, which traces its history back to 1889, before the Cornwall Golf Union was founded in 1901, and would be shortly followed by St Enodoc, Newquay and Bude and North Cornwall.<\/p>\n

Less than a decade later, The Cornwall Ladies\u2019 Golf Championship was founded, giving lady golfers the chance to compete against local and national rivals on a yearly basis. Today, the Ladies\u2019 Cornwall Golf Union, who started the tournament, and the Cornwall Ladies\u2019 County Golf Association merged to form the new Cornwall Ladies\u2019 County Golf Association, which support female golfers in Cornwall to this day.<\/p>\n

If you\u2019re keen to hit the links whilst you\u2019re staying in Cornwall, there are some tremendous options available, here\u2019s four of the finest:<\/p>\n

St Enodoc Golf Club, Wadesbridge<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Located on the north coast, St Enodoc Golf Club is a stunning highlight of the Cornish golf community. Extremely varied in its terrain and with a spectacular view over the ocean, it can prove difficult to focus on your game.<\/p>\n

Notable for its hills and towering sand dunes, St Enodoc is currently listed as one of Golf Digest\u2019s top 100 golf courses in the world and was recently ranked as the 6th<\/sup> best course in England by Golf World.<\/p>\n

West Cornwall Golf Club, Lelant<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Located mere minutes away from our holiday homes in St. Ives and Carbis Bay, the West Cornwall Golf Club is a fantastic option for keen golfers.<\/p>\n

With panoramic views over the remarkable St Ives Bay, West Cornwall Golf Club is a right and testing seaside course; one in which you\u2019ll find wind plays a key role. With regular days and timeslots for golfers of all abilities to test their mettle and a fully stocked bar and restaurant available, it\u2019s a lovely way to spend a day.<\/p>\n

Trevose Golf Club, Padstow<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Up the north coast once again, you\u2019ll find Trevose Golf Club. A firmly tourist-oriented club that welcomes golfers of all abilities, Trevose nevertheless offers a real challenge.<\/p>\n

With dramatic views across the golden sandy shore of Booby\u2019s Bay and over the rugged coastline of the north, Trevose offers stunning scenery \u2013 even if your game isn\u2019t at the level it should be.<\/p>\n

Perranporth Golf Club, Perranporth<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

We love Perranporth for its stunning beaches and charming seaside aesthetic, but did you know it\u2019s also home to a wonderful golf course?<\/p>\n

Perhaps the most underrated course in the south of England, Perranporth (much like the other courses on this list), combines remarkable views with an entertainingly challenging and well-maintained championship golf course.<\/p>\n

An affordable clubhouse and friendly staff round off the experience, making Perranporth Golf Club a must-visit for any serious golf fan visiting Cornwall.<\/p>\n

After a full 18 holes on one of the golf courses in Cornwall, it’s time to book some accomodation. Fortunately, we\u2019ll save you some time and effort. Check out the fantastic variety of accommodation offered by Carbis Bay Holidays <\/b>here<\/b><\/a>, or <\/b>get in touch<\/b><\/a> if you have any questions!<\/b><\/p>\n
