20. St Andrews Beach  ↑1
Highest ranking – 20 (2016)
Designed by Tom Doak on rolling duneland near The National Golf Club, St Andrews Beach was conceived as a very private golf club but has become one of the finest and most popular public-access courses anywhere in the country. Some on our panel would push it closer to the top 10, but for the majority it belongs somewhere in the 15-25 range. Either way, in terms of value for money and the joy of holes like the second, third, sixth, 17th and 18th, it comes highly recommended.
