Looe Golf Club sits on the cliffs above one of Cornwall's most characterful fishing towns, where the land drops sharply toward a coastline that has been drawing visitors — and eventually golfers — for well over a century. The club traces its origins to the late Victorian era, making it one of the older established layouts in the far southwest of England. Perched on the headland, the course works with the natural contours of a landscape that is anything but flat, and the Atlantic weather that rolls in off the Channel has a way of making every round feel like a genuine test of judgment as much as ball-striking.
Cornwall's golf scene rewards those who venture beyond the famous links at St Enodoc or Trevose to explore the smaller, more personal clubs scattered across the peninsula. Looe represents that tradition — a members' course with a strong local identity, shaped as much by its community as by its terrain.
With a par of 69, this is a compact layout, but the elevation changes, exposed positions, and sea views ensure the course asks real questions. Scoring well requires local knowledge and a controlled game above all else.
