St Enodoc's Church course enjoys a justified reputation as one of the West Country's finest links.

The par 5 1st is one of the easier holes even if you have to thread your way carefully between the sand dunes. Pars are harder to come by on the long par 4 2nd and 3rd holes.

The 6th is a 378-yarder that kinks left at driving distance then climbs up to the green. A hidden fairway bunker may catch out longer players seeking a view of the green but laying up short and right leaves a blind shot over the cavernous "Himalaya" bunker!

The 10th hole is often described as the course's signature hole as it winds its way towards 11th Century St. Enodoc Church. A good drive needs to be followed by an even better second aimed at the church porch to avoid the lateral hazard which runs the length of the hole and creeps ever closer to the left side of the green.

Over the memorable final stretch it is club selection is key on the downhill par 3 15th, while the par 5 16th boasts a rollercoaster fairway and potentially distracting sea views all the way down the right. The hole has been lengthened to 560 yards with a two-tier green surrounded by deep bunkers and has now become a stern test particularly into wind.

To finish well you'll need to conjure up your best strikes to make par on the long par 3 17th and fittingly tough 446 yard 18th.

For visitors, men will be asked to produce a handicap certificate of 24 or less and ladies 28.

The Holywell at St Enodoc is a fun round with 9 par 3s and 9 par 4s. Many of the holes would do justice to any golf course and holes 14, 15 and 16 are its "Amen Corner".

Number 14 is a 345 yard uphill par 4 with a road diagonally crossing the fairway at its most inconvenient point where it also doglegs right which then leaves the player with a steep uphill second to an almost invisible green.

By comparison, the 15th at least you can see all of the very small upturned saucer Donald Ross style green some 176 yards downhill. This hole is completely at the mercy of the wind from whichever direction it may be blowing and there is every chance that a ball landing on the green will be shed off again.

At 109 yards the 16th is the shortest hole of all and to compensate it has a tiny green, the detail of which is hidden from view - you see the flag and nothing else. Anyone who stands on the 17th tee having parred the previous 3 holes can feel very pleased.

The Holywell course is maintained to a very high standard and while it may be less demanding on stamina, it still provides a real test of skill for all golfers.

To the left of the 12 hole is the "Holy Well" the history of which is somewhat clouded, one theory is that St Enodoc may have baptised his converts here at the site of a small settlement.

The Tralee Championship course was laid out by Harry Colt - the same man responsible for amongst others, Muirfield, Lytham St Annes, Wentworth and Sunningdale!

The wind at Trevose can often play a decisive role and prevent low scoring (no one, at least at time of writing, has bettered 66). There are many well positioned bunkers and a stream meanders through much of the Course.
