What the club says: Situated on the south coast of the truly fantastic Lleyn Peninsula the course has unrivalled views of Snowdonia over Cardigan Bay this is a sublime setting where the golf is equally awe-inspiring. With a long history spanning back over 109 years Pwllheli is regarded as one of the Top Courses in North Wales.
Designed as an initial 9 hole course by Tom Morris in 1900, the course was extended to an 18 hole course in 1909 in line with the designs of 5 times British Open Champion James Braid.

Looks are deceiving but worth visiting.
To the unwary this looks like a straightforward parkland course but beware. Tricky pin positions on greens well defended by strategic bunkers and ditches (staked) that you are unaware of teeing off. The links section of the course is as you would expect - undulating fairways and wild bounces - keep your eye on the ball !! Very helpful lady in the pro shop as well. Highly recommended if you are in the area. There was no bar/restaurant facilities on my visit which was disappointing.Reviewer Rating

Challenging course Parkland and Links
Parkland is in great condition and easy to play but some challenging greens. Head to the links on the 8th and you are playing a very different course. Plenty of obstacles and bunkers. Views over Cardigan Bay. A very enjoyable course to play.Reviewer Rating

Lovely day 2
Second day of trip and played really well holes 1-7 were woodland type holes followed by some links type holes and a couple of woodland to finish off. The good thing was you could see what shot was needed for the holes , if I could play it was a different matter, but greens were receptive and trueReviewer Rating

Lovely course, very welcoming
Firstly everyone we talked to at the club were very friendly despite the fact that most spoke welsh! Super course with fine facilities and a good view over the course from the clubhouse. The course was in great condition with the 3 or 4 links holes on the back nine very difficult but with spectacular views over the estuary.(Round played: Sep 2019 - Score: 111 Handicap: 23.1)

Great find welcoming and a good test
Played here on Tuesday 16th July after giving up at Abersoch due to the appallingly slow pace of play. What a find. The professional was warm, welcoming and friendly as were the staff in the clubhouse. We were able to have a quick sandwich and a drink in the clubhouse which were good quality and served very quickly. We started our round just after 2pm and we were round in just over 3 hours with no hold ups - excellent.The course itself is a good layout with 9 holes being parkland and the remainder most definitely links golf. The course was in good condition although the greens were a bit slow.
Overall a great find and we will definitely play it again the next time we are in the area.

Always enjoy this course
Today engalnd played in the quarter final and the course was packed, pace of play was good and the course although dry due to the summer, played with two distinct feelings - the test coming in the middle with the 'links' style course demanding a change in course management in order to score.Reviewer Rating

fantastic course always in good nick
We play every year at this club whilst holidaying in the area. The greens are always in first class condition and you always get a warm welcome from the members, My only criticism this year was that the yelloe tees were a little bit uneven but that was only a small observation. well worth a visit(Round played: Jun 2017 - Score: 86 Handicap: 12.2)
