The 1892 Bar & Restaurant
Panoramic coastal views, warm West Country hospitality, hearty morning breakfasts, post-round classics, and a fully licensed bar.
Relax Above Hele Bay
Named in celebration of the year our historic club was founded, the 1892 Bar & Restaurant offers one of the most stunning settings for a meal or drink anywhere on the North Devon Coast. Overlooking the 18th green and gazing out across the Bristol Channel towards Lundy Island and Wales, our newly refurbished clubhouse welcomes members, golfers, holidaymakers, and coastal path walkers alike.
Whether you are relaxing on our spacious outdoor sun terrace on a bright summer afternoon or cosying up inside with views of the sea, our catering team is committed to serving freshly prepared, wholesome dishes made with quality local West Country ingredients.
