Course Details
| Course Name: East Holes: 18 Yardage: 6729 SSS: 73 |
| Sauntons East Course has been the venue for many major championships and the testing 18 holes makes it one of the best links courses in the country. Established in 1897 Saunton has a long history, voted 25th in the top 100 courses in the British Isles, the East course is one course that should not be missed when visiting the Southwest. The quality of the course has long been recognised and it is often home to the most prestigious amateur championship as it was in its centenary year. Starting with a monster par 4 of 470 yards, this course soon lets you know that you are somewhere very special. For an appreciation and independent view of this course please see golfer reviews.

| Course Name: West Holes: 18 Yardage: 6403 SSS: 71 |
| The West Course has had extensive improvements over the past few years, including the total rebuilding of all 18 greens. It is now a very attractive alternative to the East Course. Our second course was originally built in the mid-thirties but was lost as a battle training ground during the Second World War. It was not until 1973 that the decision was made to rebuild the course and the work was completed in 1975. Further changes were made over the subsequent years and the West Course is now also a superb links course, equal in quality to that of the East but having a character of its own and demanding accuracy, with many ditches just waiting to catch the errant shot.
