Eamonn Haig rated 1 out of 5

Reviewed Oct 25 2012

Went on a trip to Cardiff to play a few of the courses including P&k, Machynys Peninsular, Celtic Manor (Roman Road) and Woodlake Park with six colleagues and I can honestly say we were all massively disappointed. The club house can be described only as half farm half club house (club house being a building site). As for course the views are very impressive, but views do not make a golf course. Tee's were in a shocking state, bare with little grass and very uneven. Fairways were unkempt and hadn't been cut for some time, none or very little drainage, out of a four ball, three balls hit the fairway on the first hole and all balls were lost as plugged in the unbelievably boggy conditions. Greens were the only good part of the course, fairly quick and undulating but as for the rest of the course very poor. To make things even worse we had a jobs worth of a member come out of the club house when we reached the 10th to ask if we had been given permission to play off the white tee's, the only reason we were playing off the white's was to make it very slightly more interesting, both yellow and white tee's were as bad as each other so god only knows what his problem was. All in all a very disappointing game and rest assured we will not be returning. As mentioned, a golf course is not built purely on some aesthetic views but the whole package, this course had the views and decent greens, that's it.

Nice course however over 5 hours for a 6,000 yeard course is not great fun. APpreciate a society keeps a club running but stronger course management needed especiaally when 3 gorups waiting on a tee for a par 3.

Reviewed Dec 5 2016

The course has some interesting holes and a lot of character, to go with great views of the surroundings. With that being said, the fairways were not well kept at all, the grass was very long in places, which meant that we were losing a lot of balls from good tee offs! Given the time of the year, we expected frosty greens, but nothing had been done to help with the ice that was on top of them which made putting a nightmare.

A good course, would love to play again in the summer, but doubt I will be back down in Monmouthsire anytime soon.

Was a pleasant surprise when we arrived on a golf society day. Some amazing views across the lake especially from the higher up holes.
Many fairways are tough to play off because of sloping lies. Interesting course with no one hole the same as the next.

Well worth the visit.

Importantly, a very warm welcome from the staff and members here.
Not the longest I've played but it is deceptive. The course has been designed very much in keeping with the contours of its surroundings. Don't expect a lot of flat lies.
No temporary greens and they were in very good condition.
All the tee off positions were temporary however.
Will definitely be back.
