Introduction
Welcome to the Golf Guide to Cornwall 2012, within this annual publication you will find information on just some of Cornwalls most prestigious and challenging Golf Clubs. Within 2012 a year filled with tournaments, county matches, charity days and much more... Golf within the region has never been better. Cornwall is home to some of the most challenging and picturesque courses in the world. Bathed in heritage and tradition the courses can also test a players ability to navigate sudden gusts as well as tricky greens and not forgetting some of the magnificent cliff drops. Golfers come from far and wide to play the courses that still manage to dazzle and confuse even the most accomplished of professionals. The courses in Cornwall are very different to others in the UK, no matter how many times you play a particular shot it will never turn out the same. Within recent years a few of the Clubs have undergone some changes, with new courses being built and old ones being changed which has led to Cornwall being one of the places that is on every golfers must play destinations. Club houses in the county are in some cases a thing of beauty, combining the architecture with the backdrops of coast, cliffs, sand and waves gives an awe inspiring view that can take your breath away.

Designed by Harry Colt, The Championship Course ranks as one of the top links golf courses in the British Isles. Recent highlights include hosting 2008 Brabazon Trophy and The McGregor Trophy (2012). Like so many Colt courses, including Augusta National, Pine Valley, Sunningdale, Royal Portrush and Muirfield, Trevose guarantees a unique golfing experience...twelve months of the year.
Opened in 1993 by Peter Alliss, the nine hole Headland Course provides a good test of golf for all levels. Whether youre an experienced golfer looking to fine tune your game, less experienced (intermediate level) but looking to improve your skills or simply looking for a course to try out some new tips picked up from the Professional then this course is for you!
Set in and around the ruins of Chapel of St Constantine (dating back to C15) it provides an excellent test of golf for beginners and juniors, who are not quite sure of themselves, or the seasoned golfers wanting to brush up on their short game.

Despite the tough climate, the right properties are still selling
By working with our clients to price property realistically, at a value driven by the market rather than by flattery to win your business, we have continued to generate sales. In fact, at Savills in Truro we reported our best winter period for sales, since opening in 2006. While we have sold properties from under 250,000 to over 5 million, the average price of properties we have sold over the last three years in Devon and Cornwall is 973,551. In the third quarter of 2011, the average sale price of properties sold by Savills across the region was 97.4% of the asking price. And this speaks volumes about our pricing strategy. Todays buyers are buying a property in the knowledge that it may be worth the same or less next year, and so they are understandably very focused on value for money. This reflects the general sentiment throughout the UK economy. But if the guide price is right, then there is no shortage of buyers. In fact we have seen competitive bidding over the guide price on a number of our recent sales, with one being concluded some 50% above the original guide price!
We handle a variety of properties from the listed manor house to the one off contemporary designs. Its still a very tough market, but the right property, in the right location at the right price has sold and will continue to sell. Selling a property in this climate requires a deal more than good fortune. Experience, sound advice and an international network of agents is a good place to start. Savills has been selling properties in the West Country since 2001 with a dedicated team that can testify to the desirability of the area, having experienced it first hand. Savills has a network of over 200 offices across the world and for those potential buyers that we cant reach face to face, the Savills website provides a shop window for our properties to property searches across the globe; recent figures show that Savills.co.uk is the most visited UK national estate agency website*. To discuss selling a property in Cornwall, please telephone 01872 243200 and ask for Martyn Rohrs.
This time last year we were looking ahead to the summer of 2011 with a mixture of cautious optimism and nervous anticipation. It seemed that not a day went by in 2011 without bad news for the UK economy, but from a local perspective, Im pleased to report that the winter months of 2011/12 werent all doom and gloom.

The Nicklaus Signature Course is amongst the finest golf courses anywhere and was also the first European course personally designed by the 18 times Major winner, Jack Nicklaus. It was officially opened in 1988 and to celebrate the occasion a USA vs Great Britain the match was held and screened live on the BBC, with Nicklaus himself partnering Tom Watson against Sandy Lyle and Nick Faldo, with Britain coming out victorious. After the occasion Nicklaus was quoted I knew it was going to be good, but not this good....its everything I hoped for and more.......St Mellion is potentially the finest golf course in Europe. The course has also been a regular fixture on the UK Top 100 and is always listed in the must play courses.

Many Golf Clubs are seeing their memberships dwindle in recent years and participation in Golf is consistently falling across the country. However, on Sunday 25th March, St Austell Golf Club signed up 16 new members at their Open Day and expects more follow-up interest in the coming weeks. This was primarily the result of a targeted marketing campaign being piloted in conjunction with the Cornwall Sports Partnership and the Cornwall Golf Partnership. The Cornwall Sports Partnership is encouraging Sports Clubs to adopt a more sophisticated and business like approach to their sustainability ultimately demonstrating that a little strategic thinking and investment in evidence-based techniques can result in serious Returns on Investment. Jake Leat, of the Cornwall Sports Partnership said that he was extremely excited to see the initial evidence from St Austell. This could have a phenomenal impact on Clubs seeking to re-energise their memberships and increase wider Club benefits such as lessons, pro shop, bar and restaurant takings.
