St. Mellion - Nicklaus Course
Opened: 1988
Designer: Jack Nicklaus
Par: 72
Length: 7,008 yards
Since opening in 1988, the Nicklaus Course has been impressing amateurs and pros alike with its high standards and tough layout. Thirty years ago Jack Nicklaus decided to take on his first European design, and this has become one of the most popular "Bucket List" golf courses in the UK, with several unique water hazards, cleverly-placed bunkers, and even it's very own Amen Corner. To say it presents a stern test of golf is a gross understatement and you certainly have to be on the ball from the start, as it is also regarded as second only to Carnoustie as the most difficult golf course in Great Britain. The Nicklaus Course is known as the finest venue for golf in the South West and as one of Europe’s premier resorts for both golf and leisure.
