What the club says: The par 72 course runs to 6,692 yards for the men, 5,700 for the ladies and is set up in a way which should maximise enjoyment for all standards of golfer - you shouldn't have to spend your holiday looking for lost balls! The well-drained greens, built to USGA standards, means the course rarely closes in inclement weather, and in winter tees and greens are in full use - no temporaries.
A ten bay covered driving range, large putting green and a chipping green complete the picture. A fleet of 20 electric buggies lay at your disposal. With two nine-hole loops back to the clubhouse starts are possible from the first or the tenth, useful for those wanting an early nine hole game.
The first nine starts at the upper end of the course and makes for an excellent warm-up to a full round, the benefit of which you will feel when you reach the 600 yard 7th! On the way you will pass some of the 26 lakes and ponds which adorn the course.
The second nine quickly descends past the old Lanteglos church into the valley of the river Allen which is lined by attractive bluebell woods and streams. The signature hole is the 385 yard 12th, a challenging par four with an island green reached by a covered wooden footbridge reminiscent of New England. A few holes later, you will be on the 18th tee, hopefully hitting your drive to the top of the slope which presents you with a commanding view of the clubhouse which awaits you with a welcoming and well deserved drink.

We have played Bowood Park many times. It is demanding but superb to play on. The course is kept in excellent conditions and all of our party of 19 commented on how much they enjoyed their day. Service from all staff was good and a pleasure to visit.Reviewer Rating

Bowood may not be the easiest venue to get to but it is well worth the effort. The hotel is excellent, the staff are friendly and the course is a gem. It is also worth pointing out that, unlike many other resort courses, there is "proper" sand in the bunkers. Definitely worth a visit

Tough but enjoyable
Great course which I played whilst visiting the area for a week. Longer and tougher than my usual courses but well kept although greens were very bare perhaps because of the recent dry weather. Very long course and hilly and slopey in places and so good exercise!Reviewer Rating

When we played it they where sanding and raking on the greens which made it virtually impossible to put on them. Some good looking holes and lots of trees in your eye line off the tee. Would play it again butt not if working on the greens.

Superb Course
This is a lovely, well-maintained course, with a starter's hut that was actually manned, and course marshalls doing the rounds. Some very challenging holes, especially down in the valley bottom.Tee-boxes, fairways, bunkers & greens were all in good condition.
Reception/Starter were very friendly and welcoming.

Please cut the grass!
Was lovely to spend a long weekend here with two golfing friends, a lovely course. However the grass at the edge of the fairway was allowed to get to a good 4" long and a ball landing in this can take a long time to find. These are not badly hit balls, by the end of the weekend we had all had a guts-full of searching for balls. The fact that we weren't holding others up must have meant others were suffering too, our 4 ball on the final day took five and a half hours, with buggies. No excuses for allowing the course to get like this when taking money off folk for the privilege of playing it.Reviewer Rating

Nice hotel setup for parkland golf. Range, net and putting green all at hand. Decent if unspectacular layout, ok condition and clearly set out. Slightly hard walk.
Some of the paths are very rough for trollies. Greens were punched for our visit so can’t really judge them. The long par 5 isn’t well thought out as a hole. It’s a reasonable slightly above average track but probably not the sort of course a visitor would come to Cornwall for.

Well worth a visit
Just had a 2 night 3 round stay, we had a fantastic time, great accomodation, good food and friendly staff. Course was in great condition, just one fault for me was the tee position on the 15th a tree right in the line of driving, it really spoilt the end of the round for me. But on the whole well worth a visit.Reviewer Rating
