The course is 5,312 yards from the yellow tees, par 69, with a range of both gentle and challenging holes. The par 3 thirteenth, the 'Cream Pot' is probably the only hole in golf enclosed within a walled garden. You fire your shot up to a mystical looking sunken garden, that stands on the site of a nineteenth century tin mine. The walls of the green are half covered in vegetation and are known locally as 'Cornish Hedges'. The deceptive fourteenth gives you the illusion that you are driving into the ocean, where in fact you head for a narrowing fairway with a sharp drop-off to the right, a magnet for golf balls, with the pin set up on the left. The hardest hole on the course is the 346 yard fifthteenth. Whilst it may not sound long for the big hitter it requires a 230 yard carry over a walled garden and then a very steep uphill second shot to the green.
