Half parkland half links at its best.
As suggested in previous reviews, course play in two halves. The first 9 are the scoring holes. What you see is what you get. A bit of a mix of dry links with features of a parkland course. Once you get to the 12th the outlook changes with plenty of blind shots and dunes. Signature hole is definitely the 15th, a landing area for the tee shot and then undulating approach to a hidden green. Same goes for the 16th with a tricky tee shot. All in all a fanstastic course to play and when the wind blows.....Fortunately the wind was a breeze for me and so didn't experience the teeth of the course.Reviewer Rating

Lovely & scenic course
With seven par 4's over 400 yards from the yellows, this isn't a course to be taken lightly. Up until the 13th the holes are mostly long with reasonably generous fairways, but that changes from the par 3 14th, a 209 yard par 3 partly hidden by dunes. From there on it's a battle to keep your score going (not that that was an issue for me today!), with the pick of the bunch being the par 4 16th. The 16th is a slightly downhill dogleg from a raised tee, and is probably the prettiest hole on the course.You don't actually get to see the adjacent sea from the course, but there are lots of views of the mountains, and there are a couple of holes where your eyes are drawn to Harlech Castle high above you. It's a lovely location for a golf course.
I couldn't fault the tees and greens, which were in really great condition. Not all of the fairways were up to this standard however, and maybe I expected more given the cost of the green fees. This is a lovely course to play, I'm just on the fence about whether it's worth the cost.

Good challenging Links
Played in high winds and the course got the better of me. Tight fairways, lovely true greens with good pace through the whole course. The front nine wasn’t as memorable as the back nine which has a number of interesting, beautifully constructed classic links holes with a few blind shots thrown in amongst the dunes.Reviewer Rating

Jewel of the North Wales?
We had great anticipation for this course as the highlight of our visit to North Wales. Quite easy to find but not very well signposted, for a signature course it is not well advertised. Friendly staff and very welcoming. Great practice areas with pitching and putting green. The course was an open links course that depends on the wind for its defense. The opening 12 holes are open and challenging with the rough very punishing should you stray there. Unfortunately another course where its fairways really suffered from last years drought and still struggling to recover. Greens in good condition but not as quick as you would expect for a course of this stature. The last 6 holes through the sand dunes bring this course to life, with the only view of the sea from the 16th tee. Overall a great challenge - is there a signature hole? Well not one that stood out for the 12 of us that played this course.Reviewer Rating
