Oakwood Golf Course

 

The Oakwood Course – 5502 yds Par 68

 

Oakwood is widely considered a thinking golfers course and should not be underestimated. It offers many testing holes due to the well placed ponds and bunkers that have become major features around the course. The 15th is a fine example of a hole which offers a good score but can also provide a triple bogey if not played in regulation. A par 4 at only 256yards the hole looks straight forward but with a large pond stretching 120yards back from the front of the green, the percentage shot is a mid iron from the tee with a short iron approach to the green - many a drive has met a watery grave! 

 

With flora and fauna producing much colour during the spring and summer months, coupled with the unspoiled views across to Dartmoor, Oakwood has matured into a very picturesque course.

 

Signature Hole

 

Oakwood 7th – 429 yards Par 4 – With the fairway sloping right to left, a drive down the right side should release to the centre of the fairway. On the approach to the green, golfers must be aware of a pond on the left side of the hole, balls hit to the right side of the green will release onto the putting surface.

Pines Golf Course

 

The Pines Course – 6400yds Par 72

 

Pines is the second longest of our courses, constructed at the turn of the century, the course has now matured into a very attractive and challenging test for golfers of all abilities. 

 

Many golfers have commented that the front 9, with its wide fairways and gentle slopes, offers golfers the opportunity to score well, even when they are not playing at their best. Whilst the back 9, with its tall mature tree lined fairways, provide an intimidating prospect that require respect and accuracy to maintain a strong score.

 

 

Signature Hole

 

Pines 4th – 270yds Par 4 – An accurate drive is required on this short but tricky par 4. The drive is uphill, with a narrowing fairway. There are 3 ponds on the right of the hole and large trees left and right, ready to catch any inaccurate shots. A safer option is to take an iron off the tee, leaving a short iron to this long narrow three-tiered green.

Willows Golf Course

 

The Willows Par 3 Course – 1939yds Par 54

 

This course is more than a pitch and putt course and offers a challenge to both beginners and experienced golfers alike. With holes ranging from 67 to 147 yards this course is hailed as one of the finest courses of its kind in the South West. With a scattering of ponds and bunkers complemented by the natural hazards of mounds, banks and trees, there is plenty to think about. The greens are smaller than those on the long courses and demand a great test of accuracy. Golfers with lower handicaps also enjoy this course as it is ideal for sharpening up the short game.
