Fantastic course
Thought the price was steep at ?47 for 18 holes, that's booking with the pro shop, I managed to find it on line at ?35 so not complaining at all. The fairways can be tight on some holes but that's the joy of not using a driver all the time. The greens were super fast and took a couple of holes to weigh them up. The views from every hole was fantastic, estuary and poppit sandsReviewer Rating

Very challenging greens and in great condition for late December - you need to be on the right spot on some of the fairways to even get close to some of the pins but fun al the same. A very good club house with welcoming members made this a very enjoyable day out. Recommended even if its just for the spectacular views affored from some of the tees and fairways even if you are playing badly.

A great course in really good condition a slight wind which made the course challenging. Some really interesting holes and undulating greens. A warm welcome in the pro shop and the bar. Good food as well.

Firstly, I must point out that the weekend Summer Green Fee is £40 !! Yes £40, not for a round, but for THE DAY !! Amazing value for a course held in such high regard by the Welsh Golf Union that is has hosted the Golf Union of Wales's Under-18 Wales versus Ireland internationals every other year since 2004 and also it regularly hosts County and Regional competitions, Golf Union of Wales Championships and International matches.
Another worthy note is that Furman Bisher of the Atlanta Journal, doyen of American golf writers, came to Wales to give Royal Porthcawl the once over. He had never been to Wales before and was so impressed he changed his plans so that he and his wife could do a ten-day tour. The game he played at Cardigan was extolled to his readers as one of the highlights: “With the possible exception of Pebble Beach, the view from the top of the Cardigan course is the finest I’ve seen anywhere in golf”.
Following on from that is this ......
Steve J, I assume you have not played Cardigan much ? I have played it lots as my folks live in Cardigan, and my Uncle was once the Club Captain. Iconic holes ? How about the Par 3 16th ? Both for the views of the beach/sea/estuary and mountains, and also the 2-tier green which is surrounded by bunkers and can be anything from a 9 iron to a 3 iron or rescue if the wind is blowing. 4th hole is a very good par 4 with a wonderful undulating fairway. From T to Green it is one of the best looking Par 4\'s I\'ve played. Green is driveable in the summer with no wind and a good bounce, but stray left or right into the brambles and it\'s good night Vienna !! 11th is a wonderful dog leg left par 4. Wonderful from the T, and then playing to the green with the backdrop of St Dogmaels, the estuary and the Preseli mountains is simply wonderful. Then add the 14th, which again has a great undulating fairway, and a T shot from heaven, looking straight down the hole and the to sea beyond. It\'s a view I could sit and look at all day every day and never get bored of.\\I\'ve played Cardigan lots, and as a former greenkeeper in Surrey, I\'ve played many of Surrey\'s top courses, including all 3 at Wentworth, the 3 W\'s (West Hill / Worplsedon / Woking) both at The Berkshire, Wisley etc etc, and Cardigan is prob the course I would pick if I had to play just one more round in my life.

Had the chance to play twice over some very sunny days in July 13 and can honestly say I am very envious of the local members. This is a stunning course in a truly remarkable location. It was was in fantastic condition and offered a never ending test of accuracy and skill. My favourite hole would be the 14th which is a testing tee off looking down into the most amazing view. I was lucky to play when the the only environmental challenge was the heat and mist but can only imagine how much of a challenge this course must be with a stiff breeze.I can't recommend this course enough and look forward to returning to play it again.

Fine links/parkland course which recently hosted Welsh Ladies Championship and a boys international. A cut above the average course. Friendly pro shop staff and reasonable green fee of £28. Decent meal in excellent clubhouse. Beer £1,90 a pint. Locker room looked quite new with showers. Course is testing in the windy conditions we faced. Would love to play it in more benign conditions. Recommended.

A superb cliff-top/links style course with greens to die for, some as much as 50 yards deep. It is a little exposed though and the wind can wreck your card on any hole.
A very enjoyable round of golf was had since the weather was kind and the views of Cardigan Bay/Teiffi Estuary were quite superb.
I can't recommend this course too strongly.

Played the course on Saturday 11th October in the Rain
This course is amazing and one of the best I've played with view's of Cardigan bay, Island and the Estury from every hole, the best view coming from the Tee at 11th.
The green's were in brilliant condition and the whole course very well kept. For me the best holes on the course were the 11th for the view and the par 3 16th.
Highly recommended and I will definately play this course again ( even though it cost me £35 ! )

Love this course
Having a static caravan just a few miles away allows me to have a holiday membership and means I can play whenever I'm on holiday there. The course is challenging (my handicap is 23.2 and the WHS gives me 24) but the views over Cardigan Island and the Teifi estuary are amazing. As it is high up the wind can affect your round as do the undulating fairways. The greens are quick but well maintained. Most holes have markers as you cannot see the greens due to the up and down nature of the course. All in all it is a course I would highly recommendReviewer Rating
