The Club
Designed by J.H.Taylor, the course makes the most of the natural contours of the wooded western slopes of the Sid Valley, and offerssome stunning views over Lyme Bay. At just over 5,000 yards, with a standard scratch of 65, visitors could be forgiven for thinkingthe course to be easy, but this is far from the case. Each hole provides its own challenge, the undulating fairways and subtle borrowson the greens add to this demanding yet delightful test of golf.
The Course
Sidmouth Golf Club was formed in 1889, and is the second oldest club in Devon. Originally consisting of six holes, it was enlarged toeighteen under the supervision of ex-Open Champion J.H.Taylor in 1905.

The course starts with a short uphill par 4 where good position from the tee isvital. Only a second shot played from the left side of the fairway will give a goodopportunity to open the round with a birdie. An early introduction also to thesloping greens putting downhill from the right-side of the green can provetreacherous when the greens are at full speed. Visitors in particular will need toguard against being distracted by the stunning views of Sidmouth Town, LymeBay and the Jurassic Coast.

Turning at the nearest point to the sea the course now plays inland to the 9thgreen. The approach to the 2nd green is best played from the right side of thefairway and all but the very longest hitters will benefit from walking ahead slightlyto survey the position of the green

After a gentle introduction comes probably the most difficult hole on the course.A drive towards the lone tree in the fairway gives the ideal angle for a second shotbut be careful not to finish behind it. The approach shot will be a long one to asmall, sloping green perched perilously close to the trees on the left side. Manywill choose to play this as a par 5.
