What the club says: There are three championship golf courses at The Celtic Manor Resort
The Twenty Ten Course: Built to stage The Ryder Cup in 2010, the course opened for play in July 2007. The first course to be built specifically for golf's greatest team tournament, it measures a robust 7,493 yards off the back tees and has a par of 71.
The Roman Road Course was the first of the Resort’s courses, opened in 1995 and was ranked ‘the top inland course in Wales’ by Golf Monthly Magazine. Overlooking the Severn Estuary with views across to Somerset and Devon, it was designed by Robert Trent Jones Snr and is named after the many Roman roads that criss-cross it, the design shaped to avoid disrupting any remains.
The Montgomerie: Designed by Ryder Cup captain Colin Montgomerie, the course measures 6,371 yards and has a par of 69. The front nine takes as its framework the starting and closing holes of the old Wentwood Hills championship course which were not part of the plans for the new course for The Ryder Cup. The back nine has been created from scratch on land that previously housed the 18-hole Coldra Woods academy course.

Reviewed Oct 4 2021 by Jim R - rated 5 out of 5 A Surprising Hit
Had been led to believe that "The Monty" was the poor relation of the three courses at CM. How wrong I was! What a little cracker of a course, one of the most enjoyable and challenging I have played. It's incredibly hilly though and will definitely hire a buggy next time. It's exhausting and that does have an effect on your golf unfortunately. It was also very rainy on the day we played, so that changes the way it plays as well. It's a very tough par 69 and you need to think about your shot selection at all times. There's no just bombing it off the tee with driver and seeing how it looks when you get to the ball - you need to plan your way around each hole. There are dangers lurking everywhere for those who don't! I would definitely like to go back on a dry warmer day, rent a buggy and take a few shots off what I did this time.(Round played: Sep 2021 - Score: 93 Handicap: 16.9)

Great condition, greens were excellent and fairways cut nicely for the ball to sit up, would be a long walk if we didn?t have buggies. My only complaint was no buggy bar/ shop especially on such a hot day as we have done with more water. And my garmin didn?t pick up a signal there!Course (layout/challlenge)

Reviewed Jun 26 2021 by Neil P - rated 4 out of 5 Very disappointed
Very disappointed the golf driving range does not open until 10:00am on a weekday, it is open at 8:00am on the weekend. I am sure COVID-19 will be used as an excuse however every other course including municipal courses have their practise facilities open around 7:00am, for a top golf resort paying high green fees to play on fantastic courses one would like to have warmed up with 20 or so balls.(Round played: Jun 2021 - Score: 99 Handicap: 20.3)

Reviewed Jun 4 2021 by Steven F - rated 4 out of 5 Great value always worth a visit
Greens had been dressed so were not at there usual best, but still true, some of the fairways were a bit hairy but the wet weather may have had something to do with that, with a buggie ( pretty much essential on this course ) it was just over £55, well worth the money.(Round played: Jun 2021 - Score: 97 Handicap: 18)

Reviewed Jun 3 2021 by Derek M - rated 5 out of 5 booked to play the 2010 Ryder cup course with a buggy, everyone we spoke to advised to hire electric trollies and walk the course glad we took the advice. first 14 holes are ok , last four is up and down but ok. all buggies have to keep to the path so you miss most of the scenic views. will definitely return.

Reviewed May 30 2021 by A. Price / Ashford - rated 5 out of 5 Tough, stiff walk
Played the Montgomerie last week. Provides a very good test, even if not at the same standard as the Twenty Ten course on the resort. Be prepared if you choose not to take a buggy, as I badly underestimated just how hilly this course is. Very realistic practice facilities, driving range closed for maintenance, but that's just bad luck. All aspects of the course looked in great condition, I think Celtic Manor are always braced for soggy ground given the amount of rain it gets. The views are absolutely spectacular, especially from the signature par 5 12th (or 3rd). Which reminds me, I arrived to find that the back 9 was now the front 9, and the front 9 the back 9. The starter told me that this had been in place for quite a long time, but my phone app and my playing partners range finders and watches had not been updated, so beware of this when you start your round. Generally, an excellent resort.Course (layout/challlenge)

Roman Road is the easier walk of the two resort courses, excluding the 2010. The montgomerie can be a tough walk but has some great views and holes.Both well maintained, forgiving the usual Covid lockdown restrictions on maintenance.
