Exeter Golf & Country Club

Exeter Golf & Country Club sits close to the city of Exeter, the county town of Devon, on ground near the River Exe where the city's Roman and medieval core gives way to more recent suburban development. Exeter grew up at the lowest crossing point of the Exe, and the river valley around the city is broad and flat compared with the hillier country further into Devon, giving the immediate area gentler terrain than the moorland landscapes the county is often associated with. The EX2 postcode district covers the southern side of the city, an area that has expanded significantly since the mid-twentieth century and now includes a mix of residential estates, retail parks and leisure venues alongside the older parts of Exeter. The city's position on the A30 and A38, and on the main rail line between London and Cornwall, makes it a natural hub for the surrounding county, and clubs based here draw from both the city itself and the wider commuter area around it rather than a single rural catchment.
