Saunton Golf Club (East)


Saunton, located on the beautiful unspoilt North Devon coast on the edge of Bideford Bay, boasts two classic links courses. The East, laid out in 1897, is the original course and stages major British and English amateur championships. It funnels through a succession of sand dunes, using natural terrain. There are eight par fours more than 400 yards long and only two par fives, the second recently lengthened to 530 yards after the opening 470-yard hole played from up high with a 150-yard carry over dunes to the fairway. The closing stretch of a gruelling par four 16th, sometimes impossible 210-yard 17th often into a howling gale and the dogleg, uphill 18th have wrecked many a card.
