Cornwalls best golf course

Anyone looking for a great days golfing in cornwall need look no further than Bowood. Always great condition, fantastic views and a great clubhouse. Shame my own golf standard doesn't do it justice.

Beautiful challenge!

Played with a group of 15 varied age and handicap golfers during storm Darragh (we may be insane).

What a truly beautiful coarse with some challenging holes and well maintained greens. The wind made our trip even more challenging but everyone in our party thoroughly enjoyed the experience.

No line of site to greens on several holes are marked well with black and white markers.

The rooms were clean, comfortable and staff are friendly.

The food was good quality and very tasty.

A well stocked pro shop with buggy and trollies to hire.

First visit, definitely not the last!

Massey’s & Readings

An excellent coarse and facilities for my party of good intermediate golfers from Worcestershire, if it wasn’t for the Golf Now deal, it would have been to expensive for 3 of the 4 ball players. Yes we will return.

Perfect weather

Nice course

Very nice parkland course that starts relatively generously but that gets much trickier on the back nine. Pick and place was till on in May and I haven't a clue why as the fairways were perfect. Greens were nice and quick on the day.

Well kept course. Very welcoming.

Overall, a very good course, facilities and welcoming staff.

Slight spoiler on the day was a very slow 4-ball ahead (in buggies!) who were holding up at least 5 groups behind and not letting anyone through!

That said, defo on the list to revisit in 2023.

Bank Holiday Golf

Played Bowood Park on the Bank Holiday monday and what a joy it was .Firstly green fees were half price because of course maintenance week but none being done today so win win . The greens were the best I’ve played on this year and fairways ample grass to get your woods under Divots filled around the course and some grreat holes especially on the back nine (12 being my favourite.)Had a breakfast before going out and can highly recommend for a tenner Staff so welcoming. Weather was great so superb day in all. Many Thanks team Bowood Looking forward to our stay and plays in winter months

Great course

We played a four ball around Bowood on Sunday 14th August which was during a really hot and dry spell of weather. The course was in great condition considering!

The only small fault I found, as a first time visitor to Bowood was that there was no map of the course on the score card, or a map of each hole on the tee boxes. So we were guessing slightly when teeing off at times.

But overall it was a great course to play for all abilities. Our group had a range of handicaps and all enjoyed.

Absolute GEM

WOW What a course/venue from the moment I arrived and asked the very approachable professional Max about disabled parking then the very friendly guy on the reception desk. We had a Fantastic day on and off the course with fantastic course conditions and exceptional food and service. Bowood Park must not be missed if you are in Cornwall it will meet all your expectations. I WILL BE BACK ( Arnold )
