A course that is affordable over one that is dubiously priced.

In most cases, a course which is accessible over one that is exclusionary.

KINGTON

I am 100% in agreement with Sean in his last criteria, accessible fo all , which unfortunately would then decrease the original list considerably.
However , the nature of the beast that is this glorious game and the realism that many in the list are not truly accessible leaves us with a wide variety of courses that make up the illustrious 147+3.


My own glaring “omission” is Saunton
