Description |
The Nicklaus course was designed by the great man himself and hosted the
B&H International for 6 years. Not one of the holes is mediocre
- they are all unique, with character, beauty, sand and lots
of water.
The undulating parkland Kernow Course has undergone a major facelift including the addition of new lakes and bunkers in addition to new greens.
This famous West Country golf resort has hosted the Benson & Hedges International on six occasions and the Midas English Seniors Open in 2007.
The English Open will return to The European Tour International Schedule from 2009 and be staged at the St Mellion International Resort at least until 2015.
The course has been a regular fixture on the UK Top 100 and narrowly lost out as the host venue for the 1993 Ryder Cup. It is also regarded as second only to Carnoustie as the most difficult golf course in Great Britain.

Reviews |
What a delight, friendly pro, friendly
membership, delightful
position, superb condition.
Richard Freeman January 19, 2005
The Nicklaus course is un-like any I have ever played, it
has
everything a true championship course should have, tight fariways,
greens that are not too big, and enough variety for anyone,
I played it in November where the rain was coming down and
the wind was blowing on and off, I had
the best time out there, played ok but was in constant awe
of the natural surroundings, a great golf course and indeed
a must play course for anyone who enjoys good golf courses.
Wayne Box January 20, 2005
You easily forgive the challenge it puts before you, because
of its sheer beauty.
