The courses and their character

The Championship Course follows Colt's classic design in two loops of nine. The front nine runs through the dunes and along the coast, with Atlantic views, while the back nine heads inland before returning to the clubhouse. Fairways and greens are generous, but stray shots find penal rough or well-placed bunkers, and the wind decides how hard it plays. The course has hosted the Brabazon Trophy (2008), the McGregor Trophy (2012), the English Men's County Finals (2017) and the first European Legends Links Championship (2019). Top 100 Golf Courses notes that Mackenzie & Ebert have been reworking holes since 2016.

Booking and visitor practicalities

Championship Course tee times must be booked in advance, online or by phone. The Headland Course and Short Course take no bookings: you turn up, pay and play. Green fees vary by season and are lower from January to March and in November and December. Full sets of clubs (including premium TaylorMade sets), trolleys and electric buggies can be hired through the golf shop. Trevose does not offer caddies. Metal spikes are not allowed.

Lodges, bungalows and apartments are available on site, along with the Constantine Restaurant. The club is at Constantine Bay, west of Padstow.
