The land here at Saunton has hosted golf since 1897 and given us today’s premier golf course in the West Country since Herbert Fowler (famed designer of Walton Heath, The Berkshire, and Delamere Forest to name just a few) created the East Course in the 1920s. The East Course was host to the 1937 English Amateur when Frank Pennink was victorious and the R&A Boys Amateur in 2019, as well as many more championships in between.
