About

About Wales Golf Holidays

Wales is home to several long-established and respected golf courses, many of which offer classic links golf shaped by natural coastal conditions. In South Wales, Royal Porthcawl Golf Club is widely regarded as one of the country’s leading courses, known for its championship pedigree and demanding seaside layout.

North Wales provides a contrasting but equally rewarding experience. Courses such as Royal St David’s Golf Club and Porthmadog Golf Club combine traditional links golf with dramatic coastal and mountain backdrops, offering a different style of round within a compact region.

Accommodation in Wales complements the golf, with well-located hotels close to the courses. Options include The Dormy at Royal Porthcawl, which sits beside the links, and characterful hotels such as Royal Sportsman Hotel and The Caerwylan Hotel, providing comfortable bases for exploring North Wales golf.

With its blend of historic courses, coastal scenery and manageable travel distances, Wales remains a strong choice for golfers seeking traditional golf in a relaxed and accessible setting.

Resort Golf in South Wales

South Wales is well suited to golfers looking for resort-based golf with multiple courses on site. The Vale Resort is a strong option, offering two contrasting championship courses within one location. The Lake Course at The Vale Resort is widely regarded as one of the more demanding courses in Wales, with water hazards coming into play across much of the layout, including around its central lake. The Wales National Course provides a longer, more open test and is well suited to golfers looking for a championship-length round.

Another established resort option is Celtic Manor Resort, which offers three on-site golf courses alongside a well-developed hotel and leisure complex. The Twenty Ten Course, built to host the 2010 Ryder Cup, is a modern championship layout that places a strong emphasis on accuracy, with water hazards featuring on many holes. The Montgomerie Course offers a different challenge, with a more traditional design that has been widely recognised within European golf, while the Roman Road Course provides an additional option for varied resort-based itineraries.

Together, these resorts make South Wales a practical choice for golfers seeking multiple high-quality courses, comfortable accommodation and minimal travel during their stay.
