4
Today play Royal St David's (tbc), set in an area of
outstanding natural beauty with the rugged mountains of Snowdonia and Harlech
Castle. While the course is surprisingly flat, it is proven to be one of the
most difficult links in Britain with a strict par of 69. Only twice do
successive holes proceed in the same direction. Please note a very limited
supply of golf carts are available for hire. Certain restrictions may apply,
please advise your Golf Travel Specialist.

Day 5
Today play Aberdovey (tbc) . At the north of the
Dovey Estuary you will find a classic links that hugs the Welsh coastline. This
historic course is a favorite of the esteemed Bernard Darwin who famously
eulogised as the course ''that may soul loves best in the world'. While the
course runs straight out and straight back in the manner of a traditional links
there is a great diversity between each nine and the holes themselves. Please
note a very limited supply of golf carts are available for hire. Certain
restrictions may apply, please advise your Golf Travel
Specialist.
Overnight: The Great House: Standard Room - including
Welsh breakfast (2 Rooms, 4 passengers)
Day
6
Play Southerndown (tbc) The course takes full
advantage of its natural features. With undulating fairways and tight lies
giving a downland/links character. Bracken and gorse punish wayward shots and on
windy days golfers need to negotiate the hazards with care. There are many
longer courses, but few with a finer set of par-threes. Equally memorable are
the closing holes, usually played into the wind. The 18th in particular with its
intimidating gorse and renowned split-level fairway will live long in the
memory.
Overnight: The Great House: Standard Room - including
Welsh breakfast (2 Rooms, 4 passengers)
Day
7
Golf today on Royal Porthcawl (tbc). A unique mixture of
classic links and heathland holes, played on lush springy turf. Porthcawl has
panoramic views over the Bristol Channel from every hole. Although Porthcawl has
never held the Open it has held numerous top Amateur events including the Walker
Cup, which featured Tiger Woods in the US team.
