A great society venue - the course is long but very fair, the greens were a little slow but very true. Highly recommended for ascairty event.

The course was wet but handled the rain well, just made the greens very slippy and the putt didn't run true, but that can't be helped. Really enjoyed playing the course and the pro, bar staff and members we ran in to were really friendly and helpful.
Buildings themselves are a bit tired looking but if you're looking for a fairly flat (for the area at least) course that is not too tiring on the legs, then this is a great course to play and I'm sure it would be even better in the dry.

Reviewed Nov 30 2012
I played last weekend in a Winter Open competition and this was only my second visit to Fairwood, the last one having been about six years ago. The course has definitely changed in that time because of a large number of new water features out there. The course was at full length with no temporary greens or mats in play which was great for the time of year - my own course in Cardiff is currently on temps and drains nowhere near as good as Fairwood does. But a note of caution for those of us who aren't big hitters off the tee - as this is quite a long track the softer fairways meant there was very little run on the ball so it does play long at this time of year.

Reviewed Nov 8 2012
Played here during the last week of October 2012. It's a mature course that is more 'woodland' than 'parkland' in many places. Despite the large amount of rainfall in the days leading up to our round the course was more than playable and had drained well. As others have mentioned - yes the greens here are very good and weren't that slow either despite the previous days downpour. Favourite hole was the 14th - a quirky hole with a bank of trees about 100 yards in front of the green that makes your approach shot difficult. The dogleg left on the 3rd also worthy of a mention.

Reviewed Apr 28 2012
Although I really enjoyed playing here on 10-4-12, I found it a little flat and not very challenging. The back nine are a lot better and more interesting.The course was immaculate and greens really fast and true. Putting was a delight on them.
I would defo return, but something is lacking however well worth the 20 pounds green fee. Found everyone very friendly, even returned a sweater to me at home which I had left in the hired golf bag.Overall Id give this course a good 8 out of 10.

Played at Fairwood the same weekend as the Masters and the greens were almost as fast as Augusta's. Really good parkland with some really tricky shots over water.

Wet
Got absolutely drenched due to Storm Betty ... Great course with wide open fairways and generous greens which remained fast despite the rain. Thoroughly enjoyed it and will try again and hopefully be a dry day. Well worth a visit.Reviewer Rating

Lovely track to play on
Played here in May 2019 and Fairwood was definitely our favourite of the 3 courses we played around Swansea. Accuracy off the tee is important as I found out to my cost! It is tight in spots and trees hug the fairways on almost every hole. Greens were rolling nicely too.Clubhouse is a quaint old building with a certain charm to it! Staff were helpful and friendly too.
