About this course

The Championship Course at Trevose Golf Club occupies a dramatic stretch of Cornwall's north coast near Padstow, designed by Harry Colt and opened in 1925. Colt routed the layout across exposed linksland that sits on elevated ground above Constantine Bay, where the terrain features natural undulations, gorse-lined fairways, and firm turf characteristic of authentic seaside golf. The course plays as a classic out-and-back links, with the outward nine working along the clifftops before turning inland, then returning toward the clubhouse with coastal views recurring throughout the back nine. The Championship Course measures over 6,600 yards from the tips and presents the full examination of links golf: wind management, ground-game options, and strategic bunkering that rewards thoughtful placement over pure distance. Several holes play directly along the cliff edge, where the Atlantic provides both scenic backdrop and tactical influence on club selection. The greens are typically firm and fast, with subtle borrows that reflect Colt's preference for natural contours rather than artificial shaping. Trevose has hosted numerous regional and national amateur competitions, including English Amateur qualifying and county championships. The club maintains a traditional members' culture while welcoming visitors, and the facility includes two additional shorter courses that share the coastal property. The Championship Course remains relatively unchanged from Colt's original design, preserving the strategic values and shot-making demands he intended for this exposed Cornish headland.
