Wow..... This really opened my eyes to golfing. I have never seen anything like this !!!!
Very very hard and testing for me and the bunkers were over 6ft deep.
I struggled the whole way round but really really loved the course. A must for any golfer !!!!

Played the West Course in the worst weather possible and in failing light, but somehow managed to enjoy myself! Absolutely classic links course. I'd like to come back and have another go on a nicer day. If it's your first time you need to hit the ball to what you can see, any further and it's in trouble, don't take short cuts until you know they exist. The West Course is a bit tight on line so try not to monster the ball unless you can do it straight.
For visitors, the club is friendly with great facilities. If you take the "£40 for a round including meal" option, make sure they are certain the kitchen will be open when you finish. I had to ask for a small refund even after assurances by the pro shop that food would be available, which was quite embarrassing and left me feeling very hungry in my wet kit! This sort of thing happens now and again and they were very good about the refund, so thanks Saunton Golf Club.
I'd recommend to others.

A gem of a golf club with 2 great courses
Lucky to be invited to play 3 rounds on consecutive days in gorgeous weather with minimal wind. Both courses are full of challenges and were in perfect condition.Reviewer Rating

Saunton East
Great challenging course, you would need to play it a couple of times to get used to it to be able to hit a good score. Very difficult greens to put on if they were fast they would be a nightmare. I do think the green fees are a bit expensive though.Reviewer Rating

Best Course In Bournemouth and Devon Area
I've played all the courses in both Devon and Bournemouth Region and the East course is head and shoulders above the rest. It has a real mixture of lengths, angles to come in to pins and also considering the rain we have had this past week, the drainage means there wasn't 1 boggy area. Beautiful landscape, stunning holes, just a gem of a courseReviewer Rating

Wow, awesome golf venue
Two spectacular courses and just a great set up. Everything was class there and although the course probably didn't suit my driving game (especially the East) the challenge was brilliant. The east punished anything offline severely and the greens were challenging, but beautiful. The west was a very different proposition, with a few more holes to get the driver out, but lots of thought needed.I would say this was possibly the best golf club I've been to, however it was reflected in the price, it was pricey!
