Perranporth Golf Club

The course and its character

The club calls the course one of James Braid's untouched masterpieces, and Top 100 Golf Courses says Braid's 1927 layout remains virtually unchanged. It is a par 72 that measures over 6,700 yards from the blue championship tees. That is not long by modern standards, but the clifftop exposure and duneland terrain test every level of golfer, and the views stretch across the Atlantic.

Booking and visitor practicalities

Visitors are welcome every day. Tee times are available most days, and some times are set aside for visitors at peak periods in summer. You can book online or contact the club team. Caddies, many of them long-standing members, can be booked to carry one or two bags. Fore-caddies, who guide a whole group without carrying clubs, are also available. The club asks golfers using a caddie to bring a stand bag weighing under 15 kg. Bookings must be cancelled at least 24 hours in advance to avoid paying in full.

Staying and getting there

Accommodation is available on the course, and the club offers golf breaks. The club is on Budnic Hill, just above Perranporth village and beach on the north coast, and is about 30 minutes from St Enodoc.
