What the club says: Founded in 1911, the course was designed by six times Open champion Harry Vardon. This challenging inland links course is 6119 yards in length, with a par of 70. The fairways and greens are always in excellent condition and are a test for golfers of all abilities. It has recently been voted one of the 100 best hidden jewels in the United Kingdom by Golf Monthly. The course has spectacular views over Cardigan Bay, the Pembrokeshire coast, the Cambrian mountains, the Lleyn peninsula and the majestic beauty of the Snowdonia mountain range.

I have been a regular visitor from the Midlands over the last 30 years.
A real hidden gem.
Superb course which has been sensitively improved over the last 10 years or so and it has never been in such good condition.

Spectacular course. Improved significantly over the last few years with nearly all the bunkers replaced.
Totally unspoilt and very well maintained.
In my opinion, the 4th is the signature hole but many other really strong holes.

hilly course with a long and unfair first cut

A hill top course over looking Aberystwyth.
I walked but I would recommend a buggy
We had been warned that as there were few hazards on the course the grass either side of the fairways had been left to grow a little longer that usual. As the fairways were more what I would call first cut, this meant that it was just long enough to cover and hid your ball. So instead of just making your shot a little harder I had to declare lost ball on several occasions despite being a fairly decent shot. Not what I would consider a fair outcome. This problem was also compounded by having several blind holes on slopes. You hit a straight shot that goes out of sight and then I can only guess hits the fairway but bounces/rolls down the slope into the longer grass never to be seen again.
I mentioned that the grass on the fairways were longer than expected this meant that despite the dry weather there was very little run on the ball. very often stopping after one bounce.
There were a lot of crows pecking at and digging up several areas of the fairways.
Greens were in an okay condition.
Green fees were ?35 but thankfully my membership of Play More Golf meant it only cost ?10.50.
I would only expect to pay ?20 for this course

Superb views

Excellent course with fantastic views. Course is fairly testing but playable for all. Well kept and maintained and a fair few weeks so plan for a trolley or even a buggy. Well worth a visit.\\Played Sep 2018

Up and down

Course is in good condition thought the greens are a bit on the slow side. Bit of a mountain goat course with every hole on one or many slopes, some like a cliff edge.

A real hidden gem!
Played the course on June 12th.
Club is managed by Volunteers who were very welcoming to my group.
There has been a complete change of Greenkeeping staff at the Club over the last 12 months and they are led by a very experienced Course Manager.
The course is in superb condition with the greens the best I have played for a long time.
The course has real character and my golf was only interrupted by the resident skylarks!
Amazing views the equal of anywhere in the World.
Really enjoyed the peaceful location and the superb greens.
Very good value for money with offers available on their efficient online BRS tee booking system.
I understand many groups have been returning to the Club every year for more than 25 years - we intend to be one of them!

Superb unspoilt Harry Vardon championship course with stunning views to rival any in the World.
I understand the course was recently rated by Golf Monthly as one of the best 100 hidden gems in the UK and I would certainly agree with that.
Traditional greens are in excellent condition and obviously expertly maintained.
Challenging and interesting course - you will do well to play to your handicap here!
Great to see a 100 year old traditional Club mainly run by volunteers with the members being very welcoming.
Best beer I have had in Wales lovingly cared for by Alun who I'm told has more than 30 years experience in the licensing trade!
Carole in the professional shop is an absolute star and arranged our food at very short notice.
Winter offer of £50 for a fourball - incredible value for money.
Aberystwyth, with its highly regarded University and famed for its nightlife, is by far the largest Town in mid Wales and has a lot to offer.
