North Wales Golf Club Of The year 2019
North Wales is littered with fine golf courses and some of the most spectacular scenery in the whole of the United Kingdom. The region’s pleasant locations, facilities and greens combine to provide a fantastic choice for a golf break whilst you can also take in the fantastic views of some of the UK’s most breath-taking countryside.
Founded in 1905, Porthmadog was designed and created by legendary golf course architect, James Braid. Today, the site offers a beautiful and traditional links course which provides friendly hospitality and an enjoyable but challenging round of golf for all ages and abilities. The par 72 Porthmadog golf course stretches over 6,326 yards from the championship tees. The front nine is predominantly set on a heathland layout whilst, the course’s back nine has more of a links style to it. Each loop of nine provides stunning views of the Cardigan Bay coast and the Snowdonia mountain range. The club’s wonderfully-appointed clubhouse building features a comfortable lounge, wellappointed bars and a spacious locker room. The large modern clubhouse is extremely family-orientated and extends a warm welcome to golfers and non-golfers alike.
The comfortable lounge area is completed with a relaxed atmosphere and a well-stocked bar serving a variety of ales, beers, wines and spirits. Aside from this, the spike bar has sports television and a snooker room. The golf club’s catering team offers a varied menu to suit all pockets and palates with dining options for friends, family and more formal dining options. The club can also cater for all manner of social occasion and celebrations.
Come and see for yourself… Society groups are welcome to Porthmadog Golf Club throughout the year including weekends with a variety of competitively-priced packages which can be tailored by a variety of bespoke arrangements. Discounts are available for groups of 12 or more. Porthmadog’s friendly, professional team lead by former European Tour player Mark Pilkington will also be on hand to offer their help and advice to ensure the smooth running of the golf day.
As well as the many outdoor pursuits which can be enjoyed in North Wales, the region offers visitors some of the best value green fees around. The area’s unspoiled golf courses at affordable prices encompass a variety of unique and testing challenges, from the gentle, rolling parkland courses to stunning mountain-backed links-style golf courses. Some of the earliest golf courses in Wales can be found in the north, with many close to the Irish Sea meaning conditions can be challenging; with many golf courses set to the stunning backdrop of the surrounding mountains. Located on the north-western side of Wales, Gwynedd is mostly located within the Snowdonia National Park with the Snowdonia mountain ranges and Cambrian coastline as the town’s magnificent backdrop. Gwynedd is home to many cultural and historical places to visit including the nearby harbour town of Porthmadog and the Village of Portmeirion.
Situated on the Glaslyn Estuary, Porthmadog is rich in maritime history and an excellent base to exploring the surrounding area.
