The course was in great shape even with all the resent rain greens were brilliant allin all I would recommend everybody play this course.(Round played: Oct 2019 - Score: 87 Handicap: 9.5)

Best course in the west of Cornwall
A biased review as it's my Club. The course is a fantastic test for all abilities, 9/10 times the wind will test your links metal. The standout hole for me is the 10th, a short par 4. A blind tee shot on the right line for the long hitter will reward a low score.A must play course if your visiting the Duchy.

Proper Old School Golf Course
Really enjoyed my visit to West Cornwall.A proper old fashioned course that you have to think your way around which is great.
I think I hit driver once on the front 9.
The fairways are undulating and compact and a fair few blind shots - but these are well marked out)
The greens and bunkers are superb.
The front 9 feels a lot tighter and there is a few chances to open up on the back with some stunning views over the small local town and sea.
If the wind picks up it will become a real test! But enjoyable one.

A great place to play golf
What an experience. Great course interesting holes and amazing views. I suspect it would be a lot tougher when wind really blows. Only concern is a lot of blind tee shots(Round played: Apr 2018 - Score: 96 Handicap: 18.8)

What a beautiful golf course! A real test of golf with incredible views.
A superb lay out with a lot of blind shots, but that's because of the dunes & other natural obstacles. The whole course was in excellent condition, with the greens fast & true.
You've really got to think your way around this golf course & I'd love to play it again as there are a number of different choices I'd make.
If you're in Cornwall & want a round of golf you have to play this course.

a long way away from where I live in London but a trip down to visit my parents was well rewarded by 18 at this beautiful golf course with my dad. some of the best views I have ever seen on a golf course! a really challenging links course, luckily we had some rain so the course had softened up a bit as it was very hard and the undulations didn't help. I would love to play this course again and if you're in Cornwall then I would definitely recommend it!

Great course greens were a little iffy but hey ho. Wind got up on the back nine with the sea mist coming in making it very difficult to play at times. Would I go back yes I would.
Check for the 1 Tee Time on Teeofftimes.co.uk like I did to get the round at 1/2 price

I played the course twice in October with my wife. We used 2 fore 1 vouchers. It makes the course affordable and great value for money. These are only accepted after 14.00. On both occasions we didget out a bit earlier.
The course and greens were in excellent condition. Play it twice if you can. We got very confused the first time. There are a few crossovers so you have to be careful. I play off 19 and found the course manageable. My wife is a high handicapper and found some of the carries very hard. I think she enjoyed the scenery more than the golf. There are some stunning views as you go round.
If you are in the area this is a must. We found the members most welcoming and helpful.

Oldest course in Cornwall on coast near St Ives with beautiful views from every hole over the coast from St Ives right round to Godrivey lighthouse. Links course. Every hole offering a challenge. Greens (lightening fast) and fairways in superb condition. Good club facilities (parking a little tight on spaces for visitors), Made very welcome by club. Challenging course due had full defences when I played (strong winds). Most enjoyable course I've played.

A Cornwall treat
Always lovely to play a new course. A great links challenge, very tight with the wind and lots of blind shots. Course was in great condition, speed of play was good until the end when members or people who know the course jump about and that slowed us downReviewer Rating

Fun & Quirky Links
I know it may not be to some ‘purists’ taste, but I found West Cornwall to be fun, quirky, interesting & just a classic links course.The crumpled fairways through 3, 4 & 8 are stunning, add to that the views across to St Ives & Gwithian & it’s just breathtaking.
OK you have to share a couple of fairways & a couple of times your teeing over greens, but that added to the fun.
Yes there are a couple of weak spots, 5, 6 & 7 isn’t the best triangle of holes & the course comes to a gentle close with 17 & 18 two of the weakest holes on the course.
However the rest more than makes up for it. You’ve got to pick your way round, avoid the gorse & the thick grass & if you do you’ll be rewarded with a great golfing experience.
The greens aren’t in the greatest condition in places, but they still run quick & it feels like they are improving rather than going backwards.
To top all this off the staff & the locals are all very friendly.
It’s the second time I’ve played here & hopefully not the last.
