Course Name: NICKLAUS Holes: 18 Yardage: 7054 SSS: 72 |
'One of the finest galleried golf courses in the world' - Jack Nicklaus - 'I knew it was going to be everything I hoped for and more. St Mellion is potentially the finest golf course in Europe'. When perhaps the greatest golfer ever to have trodden the fairways pays such eloquent tributes to a course, the golfing world is bound to sit up and take notice. A fine layout has resulted in the staging of the B+H International Open, 6 celebrity golf classics and the tournament players championship (twice) testifies to the quality of the first course.

Course Name: OLD Holes: 18 Yardage: 5782 SSS: 68 |
The Old Course at St Mellion was opened in 1976 when brothers Herman and Martin Bond unveiled a championship course and clubhouse. The course played host to several major events from as early as 1978, when the PGA Cup Match was played at St Mellion, resulting in victory for the Great Britain and Ireland team. Before completion of the Nicklaus course, the 'old' course hosted many big events including the B+H Open. Although somewhat overshadowed by the more famous Nicklaus course, the old is a very testing and interesting course in its own right. At just under 6000 yards, it has many holes which will test the very best of golfers. press here for St Mellion International course reviews |
