About Saunton Golf Club

The land at Braunton Burrows has hosted golf since 1897 and given us today’s premier golf course in the West Country since Herbert Fowler created the East course in the 1920s. He also designed Walton Heath, The Berkshire, and Delamere Forest to name a few. The West course emulates the general characteristics of the East course but has its own distinctions and offers no weak hole. They all require clever and strong placing of your ball off the tee to get at the greens with your approach. Visitors are normally accepted weekdays and weekends after 9:30am by prior arrangement.

The West Course emulates the general characteristics of the East Course but has its own distinctions and offers no weak hole. The West requires clever and strong placing of your ball off the tee to get at the greens with your approach. The green complexes require 100% commitment but are pretty fair if you choose the right line. Recently the cours

West Course
Saunton has two Championship 18 holes courses The East and the West Course. This review is about the West Course, originally designed by Herbert Fowler and later renovated by Frank Pennink. During WWII the property was used by American tanks to prepare for D-day but in the early 50's they restored into playing conditions. The West course is quite technical and plays dif…

East Course
Played both 18 Holes Courses but this review is about Saunton East. Designed by Herbert Fowler who also designed The Berkshire, Delamare Forest and Walton Heath. I preferred a little over the West Course. It just plays a bit more smooth and ecstatically is a bit nicer then her sister course in the same club. It is amazing that both courses are really quite different but l…

Saunton is one of the finest links destinations in the UK because it is home to two top 100 courses. We were playing both over two days and the opener was on the West, deemed to be its ‘second’ course. This certainly wasn’t an ugly sister. It had already charmed with its quirks and undulations over the front nine but after the clouds parted on the way back, its true…

This day in June we headed for Devon to play Saunton East. What an experience was that! Unanimously voted the best course of the week. Rolling hills, meandering fairways and perfect greens. It is said that this could be a contender for the British Open, if it only had a few more bunkers added. Very professional golfshop, by the way. Two days later we played the West Cours…

En especial el recorrido West es un puro links, cortito pero para ir siempre por calle. Greens impecables. Drenaje fantástico. El recorrido East es más largo y greens más movidos. Rouge, calles, greens en perfecto estado. Trato muy agradable.
