As guest golfers we were made very welcome with a good and challenging course. The first hole is a good start with many interesting ones to follow not forgetting some amazing views of course.

Spectacular views and vistas. I golfed with a couple that had played Pebble Beach and Spyglass and said that this course was at least on a par with them and possibly better in many respects. If nothing else 10x the value by comparison.

Must be the best golf course on the North Devon coast. We arrived without booking and had a very warm welcome from the pro, loved the well maintained course and it has views to die for! After the golf we received a warm welcome in the bar and had great food at very reasonable prices. If you love coastal views... More

After playing 18 holes in very difficult weather conditions my husband and I retired to the bar- as you do! The steward was very friendly and the chef knows his business. We had a delicious lunch there too. The lasagne was superb. Do give the food a try if you are ever in the area.

A great “testing” little course with very friendly and informative staff. The course is undulating with some holes that cross over each other but it is well worth a visit, if only for the truly outstanding views from many of the tees and fairways. We really loved our round of golf on this course.

Ilfracombe golf club is one of the few in the country where you get a different view of the sea from every tee. Sitting on top of the cliffs in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty the club was very friendly and the award winning steward Dean and his staff offer a great selection of food and drinks at very...
