This stunning 18-hole course was originally conceived by renowned golfer and architect James Braid, whose other designs include Gleneagles, Carnoustie and St Enodoc. Tiverton has always been regarded as one of Devon’s finest parkland courses, but with recent course improvements, Tiverton can now boast that the course is arguably the best parkland course in the South West.
Improvements include our new signature 12th hole, a short downhill par 3 nestled by a lake and a challenging re-modelled 16th which is the beginning of a tough finish at TGC.
Golfers are eased into their round with a relatively straightforward 500 yard par 5, whilst the par 3 4th hole always offers the chance of a “two” at just 118 yards. A tough middle section of holes 6-11 often makes or breaks a round at Tiverton, but birdies are possible on the closing few holes.
The course offers panoramic views of the Devon countryside from several spots, with the 3rd hole running alongside the Grand Western Canal. Getting out on to the course is never a problem with both the 1st and 10th tees easily accessible from the Clubhouse.
Pro-Tip:
On the 1st tee at Tiverton you will be looking at one of the most iconic opening tee shots in Devon. Whilst there is a reasonable amount of room for the drive, it is important to get off to a good start by finding the fairway – particularly for the big hitters trying to get home in two.
The fairway slopes towards the fairway bunkers on the right, so aim your drive up the left centre of the hole. The two-tier green slopes from front to back and is protected by bunkers right and left.
