Mr Chris long

A testing course but unfortunately made worse by the fact it took 5 hours to get around, we were only a 2 ball and our golf was ruined because of the waiting around on every hole.

Worth a visit

We were unlucky in that recent rain made the course very boggy. That said the views around the course are stunning. The clubhouse is in need of a 'facelift' - looking a little tired in places, but the staff and food were excellent.

a monster course to walk

Not a walking couse unless you are fit. Long distances between some of the holes.
Buggies MUST keep to cart paths so expect a 5 hour round minimum
Kept very well as you would expect at Celtic Manor.
Fairways not really watered during the drought so they are v dry and bouncy

Montgomery - disapointing!

The name "Montgomery Course" is really a bit of a misnomer for eight of the first nine holes are from the old wentwood Hills course, the other of these being a fill in Par 3. Its not until the 10th that new holes are in evidence, and these being on the site of the old Codra Woods course.
The Montgomery as it stands now is the hilliest and most exhausting of the courses at Celtic Manor, and in truth, if you are not of a certain age and fitness, a buggy is a must have - its not just the hilly nature of the land, but in some cases, marathon walks twixt green and tee. The downside of this though is that unless you play Mid summer, you have to stay firmly attached to the buggy paths, and that at the end of the day means an extra long walk anyway, just getting from buggy to ball and all that. Played in the middle of a very wet winter, but thankfully on a nice day, the ground was very very wet indeed, and more than one ball was lost in the middle of a fairway, embedded somewhere in its own mark.
As for the design of the course, well 1,2 and 3 are the openers of the aforementioned Wentwood Hills course, with the 3rd being that very noted, very long steep downhill Par 5 with panoramic views of the 2010 layout down in the valley floor. After this, you turn back uphill on the last few holes of the original course. It must be said that other than the huge walks between holes, the holes themselves are attractive, all different and other than the damp underfoot, were all very playable. After the halfway hut and the new holes as, I presumed, the ones designed by Monty continued the theme of every hole being different and a number being blind and hard to know where you are going. I did in fact enjoy these later holes more than the front 9 as they seemed more in a continuous flow, and were a bit drier underfoot. Overall, course wise, challenging, and probably too tough for the longer handicapper, attractive holes, all different, but as a whole, exhausting, and if played in damp conditions, are pretty darned muddy in places.
The clubhouse is a typical American type, and is quite attractive, but mortgage is needed for any thing in the proshop, and the catering well, OK, when it comes - our group didn't even get served for 45 minutes after we sat down, and then same again for it to appear - good when it came, but sadly, very ineficient.
Would I go again, certainly not in Winter, and probably not in Summer either as it thence becomes pretty costly all in all. If I returned, well probably only to play the 2010 again, but not the Monty. And finally, a really piffing course marshall had great delight in trying to belittle us saying that we were 30 minutes down on the usual time, to which our reply was that if we didn,t have to spend half a day looking for balls in the middle of a saturated fairway, then we would be well on time - this efficacious person was very annoying and got put into his place by a couple of our group who were Club captains and one County official - truthfully, there is no need for people like that on any course, and is probably the main reason that Celtic Manor "Montgomery Course" is now a " been there and done it venue - many more better ones out there still to play.

Played Montgomerie and Roman Road courses, both of which were in excellent condition. Only downside was very slow play on Montgomerie resulting in our round taking five and a half hours. The delays were made worse by the absence of anywhere to sit while waiting to tee off - benches would be very welcome!

Played the Montgomerie and Roman Road courses. Both interesting and enjoyable to play for all handicaps. However, think twice if you need a buggy to get round. Several of our party did, but what we were not made aware of when booking, was that buggies have to stick to the paths and are not allowed on the fairways. This meant walking almost as far using a buggy as you would if walking. To add insult to injury, £38 per buggy was the most we have ever had to pay. Our group will not be returning.
