Weston-Super-Mare Golf Club

On arrival the golf pro was very helpful.

A fine all year round option

Whilst played over relatively flat ground, this links course offers a good alternative to the mostly parkland courses in the area, especially in the winter months as the course drains well and the greens continue to run true.

Holiday golf can mean a number of things - pejoratively as golf which is deliberately easy; more neutrally as golf played when on holiday and generally at the coast and positively as golf which is fun while retaining an element of challenge.

Weston Super Mare is a charming old school links/seaside course that’s well worth turning off the M5 for.

Superb links track.

Rather devoid of the thrills I have come to expect from the courses I have played over the past week (all the links running up the coast from West Cornwall).

We played at WSM as the first course on our annual tour, this year taken in Somerset with eleven of us in tow.

Dating back to 1892 Weston-super-Mare is a historic club with a true links course considered by many as one of the best in the South West.

Played in tornado with horizontal rain, summer 2016, but amazingly the course was in good order, somehow.

This is a flat seaside course with about five holes running right along the shoreline.
