Played this over the summer on a day of torrential rain. As I was on a family holiday and had a one day pass out, I decided to play. I paid the full green fee and was told that 2,3 and 4 were on temps. Then when I was about to hit my approach shot to the 7th the greenkeepers came by in a buggy and removed the flag to another temp. Which they then did on every hole. I can understand them wanting to protect the greens, but I was probably the only person on the course, and I expect they were not going to get many more with the torrential rain.
But as it was summer there were not really any temp greens marked out on a lot of holes, so the flags were mostly on a flat bit of ground near ish to the the green. In some cases you were putting over pitch marks and putting was just a joke.
Anyway I carried on until I got to the 15th I think. I then followed a sign down a path to find the 16th tee, but after 5 mins of walking I found myself near the clubhouse. So I saw that as a sign, and as I was saturated I thought sod this for a game of soldiers and gave up.
In the pro shop afterwards the pro did offer me a discount on a further round that week, but that was not much use as I was on a family holiday there so did not want to spend another day away from the family.
It's a lovely course, great views and the 3 green I played on were excellent. But being charged full whack to play on temp greens that were not even temp greens in some cases, did not seem the best value for money. Even offering me a free pint would have helped.
I'd love to play it again without the rain, but I ended up spending quite a bit of money (I also bought a rain hat, hired a trolley and had a meal/beer in the bar) for a relatively poor golf experience.

Great course
Poor weather and a couple of not particularly good temporary greens reduced our enjoyment. But great course with lots of interesting holes. And fantastic views.Reviewer Rating

Stunning views on nearly every hole. Access is down a narrow lane. Concentrate otherwise this course will bite you.

A course with fantastic coastal views at the gateway of the Gower Peninsula. Tight fairways and small greens well protected by bunkers. Bring your accurate game otherwise you will be in trouble. Course management is vital here. The views are in a class of their own

A coastal/parkland course. Some hilly holes but also wide fairways.
Greens were good to put on and the weather was good for golf.
Thorough enjoyed the experience.

Played the course today and the conditions could not have been better. The weather was beautiful and the course has a really nice layout. The only issues that I had with the course was that firstly the fairways were not in the best condition. Secondly, many of the par 4's were too short and resulted often in a drive and half a wedge.
The course was nice though and the views are outstanding. The pro in the shop was young and real friendly. Great value for money too at just £25 pp with a county card.

Really enjoyed the golf course. Our first visit to South Wales but we will definitely return. It's a really enjoyable layout for society golfers but at the same time a good test of golf. The only negative was the poor service we received in the pro shop from the 'far from interested' old pro, the only thing he seemed interested in was taking our money. Food was nice and service from the bar staff was quick. Overall I would recommend a visit.
