Honiton Golf Club
Played On 06/21/2021A Great, but wet day
This is a lovely course with some long sweeping holes, but generally wide fairways. Great variety, and condition well worth a visit
Torquay Golf Club
Played On 05/24/2021Wet and windy on the English Riviera
I have played this course quite a few times and it is a good course, old school in design but varied and good. But at present its condition isnt great - yes its been pouring recently so it was a bit damp, that's not its fault. However, two greens were out of use, looks like they are being reseeded - so one hole had a temporary green the was a whole temporary hole with green in serious need of mowing. A few of the greens were not great and Im no great golfer who wants it perfect.
I like the course but I wouldnt recommend playing it at present.
Teignmouth Golf Club
Played On 05/10/2021A Windy Old Dayt
Not played Teignmouth for a few years, so good to go back with two friends. It was a very windy afternoon round with the wind either head on or down wind on most holes. Its was mainly sunny and warm so a decent day for it. The course was in good condition although a few greens showed the signs of winter repair work so were a bit bumpy. A good day and will be back.
Honiton Golf Club
Played On 05/26/2017A green and pleasant course
I drove the 30 miles from home to play Honiton for the first time and lovely sunny, if a little windy, day in May. It was a good round played on a green, firm and well maintained course. This is a decent course, not great as it is rather flat and the holes rather up and back again. However, three par 3s over 200 yards it had its challenges. The tree lined fairways are often quite narrow so being straight helps but with few obstacles most holes are reasonably routine, but fun all the same. As a first time visitor it was great to see a really well signed posted course; it is really annoying to have to walk backwards and forwards working out where you are going. Great maps on the score card helped as well.
Torquay Golf Club
Played On 05/05/2017Great old course
This is one of those old style parkland courses, not long but well laid out with mature trees and well placed bunkers. It was in beautiful conditions and played superbly with fast fairways and greens. It rewards straight play since it has quite narrow fairways. There are some spectacular sea views and a real mix of holes. It is a course that is well worth playing.
Sidmouth Golf Club
Played On 04/27/2017Rolling Hills
This is a nice, very well maintained course; not overly long, with a quite a few par 3s. It was in lovely conditions with hardly any weeds on fairways and good fast greens. If you like your golf courses on rolling parkland with quite narrow fairways then you will like this. The one problem was that with the course being generally slopping and in firm condition the ball simply ran off the fairways no matter where you hit it, which was rather frustrating. It is a course that is better for knowing I suspect, but a good day out and good value for money.
Teign Valley Golf Club & Hotel
Played On 03/02/2017Spring Round
My golfing partner and I enjoyed a very pleasant round at Teign Valley on a sunny spring day. The course was in good in condition, only a little wet in places, but for a low lying course in places it was in great condition. Yes we played off some advanced winter tees but the greens were great and all in use. It was very quite so we were to play 18 holes in the afternoon in just over 3 hours. A good day, well for me as I played well, less so for my partner!!
