Carlyon Bay Hotel & Golf Course
Last updated:
What we say
Clifftop golf courses don’t come more spectacular than this: Carlyon Bay Hotel & Golf Course towers above the Cornish coastline and as a result you’re treated to some fabulous views. Carlyon Bay is a round of two halves – two very distinctive and contrasting ones. Most of the clifftop action takes place on the dramatic front nine and around the turn in particular. The Jekyll and Hyde layout then turns into a traditional parkland test and you cross the railway to play the final seven holes.
A golfing trainspotter’s paradise: the Great Western Railway runs through the heart of this classic clifftop/parkland layout outside St Austell – the 2nd tee and par-5 4th green sit just yards away from the GWR.
Definitely a round of two distinct halves, this Cornish cracker is an impressive mixture of clifftop and parkland holes with most of the drama provided by the former. The par-5 10th, played from an elevated tee along the cliffs, is the star turn.

The course was stunning. Well cared for and the greens are a credit to the course staff. Beautiful scenery. A challenging course but also forgiving. Lovely club house and very friendly and welcoming staff. A great day's golf.
