Porthpean Golf Club

Porthpean Golf Club is a striking 18-hole parkland course located on Cornwall’s scenic south coast, just a few minutes from St Austell. The front nine winds through peaceful, mature parkland alongside Penrice Woods, offering golfers a classic countryside layout with tree-lined fairways and well-placed hazards. In contrast, the back nine opens up dramatically onto cliff-top terrain, treating players to panoramic views over St Austell Bay. This natural shift in scenery gives the course a unique rhythm and variety that enhances the overall playing experience.

Designed to be accessible yet challenging, the course demands a mix of accurate shot-making and strategic play, making it enjoyable for golfers of all abilities. There’s no need for a handicap certificate, and visitors are warmly welcomed. Facilities include a floodlit driving range, buggy and club hire, and a well-stocked pro shop. The clubhouse - with sea views from its terrace - serves fresh café-style meals, light bites, and locally loved Cornish cream teas, providing a relaxing spot to unwind after a round or simply enjoy the setting as a guest.

With affordable green fees (starting around £25 midweek for 18 holes) and flexible options for groups, juniors, and twilight players, Porthpean Golf Club offers excellent value for money. Its friendly atmosphere and cliff-top views over St Austell Bay make it a favorite for local golfers, holidaymakers, and corporate days alike. Whether you’re chasing a seaside challenge or just enjoying views over St Austell Bay, Porthpean delivers a memorable and welcoming golfing experience.
