Whitsand Bay Golf Club has been awarded GolfMark accreditation (High Achiever). The English Golf Union (EGU) and English Women's Golf Association (EWGA) developed the GolfMark award to identify and acknowledge golf facilities in England that were junior and beginner friendly.

GolfMark evaluates golf clubs on the following three areas within their junior section: coaching and playing; club environment, including sports equity and ethics; and child protection and duty of care.
