Home to the southernmost tip of mainland Britain is Cornwall, where Land's End marks the final stop - indeed, starting point - for those who endeavour to make the journey between there and John O'Groats, the most northerly point in the country. Cornwall has established a reputation over the years for fine foods and delicacies, including the internationally enjoyed Cornish Pasties. However, that aside, some of the golf courses in the region really whet the appetite too and will have you licking your lips with anticipation as you step up to the first tee.

Lostwithiel Golf Club is one such course. It has plenty undulating fairways and greens that command accuracy from the tee and so you will need to keep your mind on the game at all times, no mean feat, though, when you consider you the fine views that surround the course. Indeed, it is easy to be distracted by the abundance of aesthetic delights that are on offer. Possibly the most southern course on the British mainland is found at Mullion Golf Club, a links course played over the cliff-tops. There are sensational panoramic views all around and a few very tricky holes to contend with. The 10th, for example, descends down onto the beach and has a deep ravine to the side of the green. You can be sure that any stray shots will be punished, so it is certainly not for the faint of heart.Other courses you can enjoy in Cornwall include Porthpean and Whitsand Bay.
