The Championship course was laid out by world renowned
golf architect Harry Colt in 1924 and officially
opened in 1925. At the time of designing Trevose,
Colt was already responsible for the design of many
other courses, some of which are Augusta, Pine Valley,
Sunningdale, Royal Portrush, Muirfield and Wentworth.
We are not sure what attracted Colt to Cornwall
as it was his only work in the South West although
it is rumoured that the extreme beauty of the Cornish
coastline and its topography enticed him to the
area.
The course has four sets of tees, blue (championships),
white (club competitions), yellow (mens day) and
red (ladies day). Each tee offers a varying amount
of difficulty.
As with all of Colts designs the course is in
two loops of 9 holes with the front 9 holes hugging
the sand dunes and coastline and back 9 forming
inland links, however the sea can be seen from
every hole.
As with all links golf the difficulty is with
the wind, guaranteeing the golf course plays differently
almost every day. The greens are quick all year
round and the course guaranteed to be in great
condition 365 days a year. The fairways are tightly
cut and the rough penal in places, but fair, along
with many strategically placed bunkers that are
ready to swallow up golf balls. Trevose ensures
you use almost every club in your bag and the
experience is memorable, hence the number of top
amateurs and professionals that choose to play
the course and keep returning.
