2 Nights, 3 Rounds
Tucked into the Devon countryside with Dartmoor on the horizon, The Ashbury Hotel & Resort is built for golfers who want volume and variety. With 99 holes across multiple courses and a huge buggy fleet (400+), it's a proper "pick your tees and go again tomorrow" venue, perfect for groups looking to pack plenty of golf into a short break.
The big win here is choice. You've got longer, tougher tracks where keeping it in play matters, plus more forgiving options that suit mixed-ability groups, warm-up rounds or an extra 9 when you've still got energy. On clearer days, the views out towards Dartmoor add a real sense of space, especially around the Oakwood Course.
Off the fairways, The Ashbury works like a self-contained resort. There are bars for the post-round chat, full-board dining to keep the whole group fuelled and a standout list of activities that include bowls, archery, cycling, football, ten-pin bowling, padel, snooker & pool. It's an easy one for societies, families and weekend groups because everything you need is on-site, with minimal organising once you arrive.
Who is this for?
Golfers booking a Devon resort break who want maximum holes, full-board ease and loads to do on-site.
Who is it best for?
Societies, mixed-ability groups and families who want variety in course options, great value extras and a venue that's easy to run as the trip organiser.

Golf at The Ashbury Hotel & Resort comes in the form of no less than 4 18-hole golf courses including a par 54 18-hole par 3 course, as well as the Academy Course; a 9-hole layout ideal for honing your golf skills.
The Kigbeare Course is The Ashbury Hotel and Resort’s flagship golf course. Measuring 6,528 yards from the back tees, it’s not overly long by modern standards, but long enough to make playing to its par of 72 a significant challenge even for the most experienced golfers. Fairways are treelined so accuracy from the tee is paramount while rolling fairways can test the golfer with uneven lies which make approach play into the large undulating greens a tricky proposition. Well placed hazards add to an enjoyable yet testing examination of your golf skills.
The signature hole on the Kigbeare Course comes early in the round at the Par 3 3rd. Measuring over 200 yards from the championship tees, this exciting Par 3 features an elevated tee, perched some 50 feet above the level of the green.
| White | 6,528 yards | SSS 72.0 |
|---|---|---|
| Yellow | 6,152 yards | SSS 70.1 |
| Red | 5,331 yards | SSS 71.0 |
The 6,400 yard Pines Course plays to a par of 72 and is the second-longest course at The Ashbury Hotel & Resort. With plenty of room from the tee on the opening 9 holes, longer hitters will delight at the chance to reach for the driver and open their shoulders, while the tighter back 9 with its treelined fairways will even the score for those who rely more on precision than brute strength.
The Par 4 4th hole on the Pines Course is widely regarded as the signature hole. With an uphill tee shot and a fairway that narrows towards the green, with 3 water hazards also awaiting any shot missed to the right, this short Par 4 is as tricky as it is picturesque. Whether you go for the green or not from the tee, the 3-tiered putting surface places a premium not only on an accurate approach shot subject to the pin location, but also good putting skills to avoid a 3-putt should you find the incorrect level of the green.
| White | 6,400 yards | SSS 71.1 |
|---|---|---|
| Yellow | 6,076 yards | SSS 69.7 |
| Red | 5,301 yards | SSS 71.3 |
As you would imagine, with 99 holes at The Ashbury Hotel & Resort, there is plenty of variety on offer. With the Kigbeare and Pines Courses offering sterner tests of golf, a more relaxing game can be enjoyed on the Beeches Course which measures just 5,671 yards from the tips and plays to a par of 68.
Widely considered as the most picturesque course at the resort, The Beeches Course features tree-lined fairways, dramatic mounding and numerous elevation changes, most notably at the 3rd hole which features a triple-tier fairway dropping almost 200 feet from tee to green.
While the 3rd hole is truly spectacular and a joy to play, the signature hole on The Beeches Corse comes in the form of the 177 yard Par 3 12th. With stunning views across Dartmoor, this pretty little hole is both challenging and cute, with a stunning backdrop of ‘Sourton Tor’ and ‘Yes Tor’, the second-highest point of Dartmoor clearly in view.
| White | 5,671 yards | SSS 66.8 |
|---|---|---|
| Yellow | 5,293 yards | SSS 65.2 |
| Red | 4,724 yards | SSS 66.9 |
Like the Beeches Course, The Oakwood Course at The Ashbury Hotel & Resort in Devon measures around the 5,500 yard mark from the back tees, making it an ideal choice for higher handicappers, shorter hitter, or even just those looking for a more relaxing test of golf than you’d find on the Kigbeare and Pines Courses.
Well placed water hazards and bunkers provide the main challenge on this course which from tee to green requires a lot of thought in order to score well against a par of 68. Unspoiled views across Dartmoor make a round on the Oakwood Course a pleasurable experience no matter your score, and the character of the course can be summed up at the Par 4 15th. Driveable for longer hitters, this tempting little hole features a water hazard that stretches back some 120 yards from the front edge of the putting surface. Those who choose to layup and leave just a short iron into the green will still be left with an intimidating approach, and others who go for broke and attempt to drive the green will require a true strike to prevent their golf ball from finding a watery grave.
| White | 5,502 yards | SSS 66.8 |
|---|---|---|
| Yellow | 5,299 yards | SSS 65.8 |
| Red | 4,637 yards | SSS 67.7 |
For those looking to sharpen their approach play, The Willows Course at The Ashbury Hotel & Resort is an ideal place for a round of golf. An 18-hole Par 3 golf course, The Willows is far more than a simple Pitch & Putt, offering holes ranging from 67 to 147 yards. One of the best Par 3 Courses in South West England, this charming little track features a number of ponds and bunkers that are complemented by the natural lay of the land including mounds, banks and trees. With smaller putting surfaces than those found on the full-length courses, accuracy is at a premium on The Willows.
Additional Golf Facilities
A Par 23 Academy Course is a great place for beginners trying their hand at golf for the first time, or indeed for more experienced golfers simply looking to warm up before taking to one of the main golf courses. Practice putting areas are also in place to roll a few warm-up putts in before your round.
After 18 or 36 holes, The Ashbury's 222 guestrooms give you a comfortable, no-fuss base that suits couples, fourballs and bigger society groups. Rooms are available in standard and premier categories, with layouts geared towards golfers who want space to unpack, sleep well and get back out there the next morning.
In-room essentials include complimentary WiFi, a TV and tea and coffee making facilities. It's practical, reliable accommodation designed around a golf break, which is exactly what most groups want here.
Dining is full board, so your day is straightforward from the first coffee to the last putt. Expect a buffet-style breakfast with continental choices and a full English option, hot and cold buffets at lunch and a four-course buffet dinner. If you fancy something different in the evening, there's also an à la carte option available for a small surcharge. It takes the guesswork out of planning your day and keeps larger groups moving without fuss.
When it's time for a drink, the Clubhouse Bar is the natural meeting point after your round. For evening sport and a bit more atmosphere, head to The Lounge Bar with Sky Sports and BT Sport on live. In warmer months, it's worth taking your drink outside and soaking up the Dartmoor and Oakwood Course views. WiFi is available across the bar and lounge areas, so it's easy to keep in touch with the group or check tomorrow's tee times.
The real surprise here is how much there is to do off the course. If some of your party aren't playing every day, the on-site leisure line-up is a real bonus. For relaxation, the resort features indoor swimming pools, some with slides and dedicated spa baths, plus a Hydro Spa offering a 'Fire and Ice' thermal journey with saunas and steam rooms. If you're more competitively minded, you can take on your playing partners at bowls, archery, cycling, football, ten-pin bowling, padel, snooker or pool. Best of all, the vast majority of these activities are included in your stay, offering incredible value and endless entertainment away from the fairways.

Accommodation dated but fine. Rooms were boiling so took our own fans which saved us. Food was average to below average, as expected from a large buffet at such cheap price for the stay. The facilities were a huge bonus though, lots to do so you are never bored. Just wish they would have a bit more atmosphere and put some music on around the place, in that sense it is one of the weirdest places I've ever been. Golf courses amazing, staff were great and buggies are a must.

Rooms very basic, no air conditioning. Food also very basic, school dinners vibe. If you have a round of golf booked around lunchtime, you either have to miss lunch (as a round here can take 5 hours), or order a pretty ordinary packed-lunch for £9. Lots of buggies though, and fee tees and water bottles in the buggy is a nice touch. But you can't take the buggies onto the grass, you have to leave it on the cart path and walk to find your ball with what you hope is the right club. The whole round takes much longer (5 hours!) because you can't drive right up to your ball like most courses. But you need to have a buggy as it can be miles from the previous green to the next tee.

The hotel has pretty much everything you need, so many different activities you can choose to do. The rooms are very small and a bit dated but you barely spend anytime there as there is so much to do. The food is a buffet which we were a little apprehensive about but it’s actually really good. The menu changes every day for lunch and dinner (the menus are shown on their website everyday) and there are two or three options for every meal (starters mains and desserts) so we couldn’t fault it at all. Drink prices are very reasonable for a golf club basically pub prices. Had all the sports showing on the TVs in the evening and plenty of different places to watch it. £28 for a buggy here and they’ve got hundreds of them so never an issue getting one. Only negative we had was they don’t come and clean the room at all so you don’t get fresh towels. You can go to reception tho and get them and they charge £2. Will definitely come here again.

Great golf courses, a golf Mecca! The resort is a rabbit warren of corridors and rooms and differing accommodation. Staff are sometimes vague. It doesn't feel like a hotel, more like an all inclusive adult school trip. If you love golf and are happy to eat buffet all inclusive (no complaints if you know what to expect) and maybe are travelling as part of a large group on a budget fill your boots! Quaint it ain't!

As above, if you can't drive on the grass, the round takes sooo long (5 hours) as you're constantly walking back and forth to the buggy. Lovely course though, still very green despite the long dry spell.
