What the club says: The golf course at Bovey Castle is a challenging and beautiful 18-hole championship course, designed in 1926 by J F Abercromby, one of the finest British golf course designers of the century.

wow what a course !! Not suitable for high handicaps. Miss the fairway and you will lose your ball. lots of variety - water hazzards everywhere.

Toughest course I've played (harder than St Mellion Nickaulas
