Having been inaugurated in 1864, Royal North Devon is the oldest golf course in England still using its original fairways. Often known as Westward Ho!, after the town of its location, this is the oldest links course outside Scotland, and it is firmly entrenched among the most desirable courses in the country.

Royal North Devon was originally laid out by Old Tom Morris and subsequently revised by Herbert Fowler, and is a quintessential seaside course. That is, its character is totally dependent upon the land. From the traditional clubhouse, the view of the course is an array of dunes and brambles, with little to suggest a championship standard golf course.
However the reality is much different, as Royal North Devon is a gem; any good tour of the fantastic golfing landscape of Devon should certainly include a stop at the remarkable Westward Ho!
