The up coming  year promises to be an exciting time for Bovey Tracey  Golf Centre, Newton Abbot. With the redevelopment and landscaping of the entrance and 9 hole par 3 golf course in full swing, the grand opening for the Easter holidays is looking good.

As the catering continues to thrive and grow we have decide to expand and redevelop the bar, restaurant and kitchen area, with a pro shop soon to follow. With the help of  experienced Exeter golf club designers,  work is scheduled to start early January. The new café and bar area will be able to comfortably sit 100 people.

All other areas of the Centre are open as usual,We apologise for any inconvenience but feel sure this will improve your golfing experience when the works are completed
