Top hint for this course
On the 5th, a par-3, take an extra club to avoid the two pot bunkers guarding the front of the green.
Full Course Lowdown
Saunton East Course is one of England's best-kept secrets. This classic links layout is an exciting test and has hosted the English Amateurs and the R&A Boys Amateurs.
Can you avoid the sand dunes? Find out if the gang can tackle this testing course, start practising, and swing into action.
Course
The opener is a par-4 at 470 yards from the back tee. Open your shoulders to reach the fairway, avoid the left-side bunkers, and land in pole position for the second shot.
Hole 3 features a slight dogleg left, so set up the best second shot by aiming right of the first fairway bunkers.
A similar navigation to the 3rd is needed at the end of the front nine, so there are no excuses for this one. Layup just before the right bunker for the easiest approach.
The 13th is simple. It's 154 yards, so use a short or mid iron, and keep central to avoid the sand. What could go wrong?
To finish the round, a harsh dogleg right needs clearing. Cover the distance with your driver, cut off the angle, and prepare for a straightforward second shot to the pin. Easy stuff.
Clubhouse
This is a classic 19th hole. You're guaranteed a welcoming space to unwind, whether you kick back and relax on the terrace or grab a seat indoors and discuss the action.
Everything you need to refuel is served here, from clubhouse classics like burgers and wraps to full English breakfasts and ice-cold swing oil.Course Facilities

The Location
Found on the West coast of Devon, this classic links course is moments from Woolacombe, a famous beach and surf town. It's the ultimate getaway to unwind and play top-tier golf.
On-site is the West course, another exciting challenge neighbouring the East course if you can hack the challenge.
Nearby are hotels and cottages, so finding accommodation is a doddle.
Woolacombe is 6.5 miles away and worth the visit for its incredible coastal walks, famous beaches, and cosy pubs.
The course is accessible from anywhere in the UK by car.
