Royal North Devon Golf Club

Royal North Devon Golf Club

Royal North Devon Golf Club was founded in 1864, and hosts the oldest links golf course in England and Wales. It is located in the town of Westward Ho! in Torridge, Devon, England, and consequently the course is often referred to as Westward Ho!. There is a single 18 hole course.

The course has hosted The Amateur Championship on three occasions, in 1912, 1925, and 1931. Champion player J.H. Taylor learned his golf there as a youth.
