Aberdovey Golf Club

Tywyn Road, Aberdovey, Gwynedd, LL35 ORT United Kingdom

At 6,445 yards off the white tees, the course is not long by the standard of many newer courses. However, the real defences lie in the wind which is often a gentle zephyr but can be a stiff blow. For example, if playing 36 holes, the 193 yard par 3 5th hole could require a full hit with a driver in the morning and an 8 iron in the afternoon. Whatever the wind, it cannot spoil your enjoyment of the wonderful setting where the hills, with their colours shaded by bracken, gorse or heather reach down to the very edges of the course and the buzzards, kites and seabirds wheel on the thermals. It was Bernard Darwin, the first literary giant of the game who returned here regularly, who wrote "Aberdovey is the course that my soul loves best of all the courses in the world"; one can understand why.
