Devon may be famous for cream teas rather than tees, but now you can enjoy the cream of the county’s golf courses without breaking the bank.
The South Devon Golf Tour packages, based at Dartmouth Golf & Country Club, start from just £139 per person for two nights’ dinner, bed and breakfast, with 18 holes on both Dartmouth courses and a choice of any third layout.
The breaks include a round on the resort’s Championship course, unlimited golf on the nine-hole Dartmouth course and one round on a choice of China Fleet, Bigbury, Dawlish Warren, Dainton Park and Churston or for a £40 supplement the renowned Bovey Castle.
Dartmouth Golf & Country Club is located just four miles from the historic town of Dartmouth and is the ideal base from which to explore the delights of south Devon, with Dartmoor, Paignton Zoo, the River Dart, fantastic beaches and a host of picturesque towns and villages nearby.
The resort boasts refreshing three-star accommodation with 35 tastefully appointed rooms, great-value bistro dining, a lively bar, a leisure club – complete with indoor pool, gym and sauna – and service levels that belie its rating.

I just wanted to drop you a line to say what excellent value my recent 3 day golf break with you was. The standards were extremely high, and everyone was helpful and friendly. Stuart Barrett was a wonderful tutor and helped me improve a lot over the three days. I am now planning to return in October with friends as I had such a good time in a beautiful part of the country.

Hi,
We stayed at Dartmouth for three nights, 10-13 June and I just wanted to say thankyou.
Everybody had a splendid time and the feedback I’ve had from everyone has been very positive, both re the golf courses and the accommodation.
From my point of view, having the thankless task of being organiser(!), I particularly appreciated how helpful all the staff I dealt with were – over and above just doing their job.
I suspect everyone will be keen to come back again next year, so if / when you’ve got any information on availability and costs, can you let me know?
Thanks again.

Dartmouth Golf & Country Club has been operating a visitor payback scheme which donates 5p for every cup of tea and coffee sold at the club to a programme to fund a wide ranging local environmental programme.
A cheque for £640 was presented last week to Andy Pratt of the Field Studies Centre at Slapton by Jamie Waugh, Managing Director Dartmouth Golf and Country Club. Jamie Waugh said, “We’re delighted to present this amount to support the excellent work that the Slapton Field Studies Centre and partners in this project are doing in helping local students appreciate the changing coast of Start Bay”.
Students will investigate Start Bay through fieldwork, using photographs and roleplay to understand the characteristics of Start Bay, as well as the processes and issues affecting it. They will investigate:
- What are the main land uses and features
- What processes are affecting it
- How human activity affect the coastline
- Who decides what happens to coastlines
The work is linked to the Geography National Curriculum and QCA Schemes of Work, as well as many broader cross-curricular links. Focus groups with children before and after the visit will enable an assessment of awareness before and after the visit.
The other partners in the programme are Start Bay Centre, Slapton Line Partnership, South Devon AONB, and Tally Ho Coaches (to provide transport).
Funding will provide free visits, including tuition, field equipment, education resources & transport.

My wife and I stayed at the Dartmouth Golf and Country Club last week and had a great time. Whilst we did take the opportunity of completing one of your satisfaction forms, I would like to make a couple of additional comments.
We have stayed many times at your hotel over the last 15 years and like the recent changes you have made to the bar and restaurant area. We found the service provided by Lee and the rest of the team to be excellent with nothing being to much trouble.
We look forward to staying with you again.

Hi to everybody at DGCC.
I recently bought a party of 19 people to DGCC. It was almost literally a last minute booking. We had been due to go to Turkey for our annual golf trip, but the volcanic ash put paid to that.
You kindly allowed us to stay in your 3 bedroom lodges and we stayed 5 nights, enjoying the golf course immensely and your hospitality even more.
As a group we cannot thank you enough, you made the week memorable and the friendliness and professionalism of the staff was truly remarkable. There was a genuine warmth that is very rare these days.
All of the staff, from reception, particularly Sue and Dee, to all of the bar staff and catering staff, particularly Claire, turned a disastrous week into a magical one.
From all of the boys, thank you.
Kind regards, see you soon, Bob.
