Westward Ho

The Royal North Devon golf course is known as Wesward Ho! This is a great links experience and has the distinction of being the first English links course and the oldest in England where play still continues over the original layout.

It can further boast of having the oldest Ladies Golf Club in the world established in 1868.

A traditional out and back layout with some wonderful panoramic views it is one of Britain’s most windswept courses with added protection sought from pot bunkers and lush sea grasses which can cause havoc to a good score.
