Characteristics

SOUTHERNDOWN

  • the nearest championship links-style course to the Celtic Manor Ryder Cup venue

Unique! A links-style course set on a limestone heath with stunning panoramic views of South Wales.

No trees or water hazards here – just gorse, bracken ( - and sheep!) with the occasional breath of a sea breeze. A challenge for any golfer – that’s why so many of the best amateurs take part every April in the famous 72-hole championship event, the Duncan Putter.

Peter Alliss referred to Southerndown as “One of the finest tests of golf in Wales”. From the first hole, which Henry Cotton famously described as “one of the most difficult opening holes in golf”, to the 18th signature hole with its memorable split-level fairways, Southerndown will provide the serious golfer with an unforgettable experience.

A course for the connoisseur!

Top Links

A nice old link course, which is a real challenge especially in wind. As it is often not enough, on the other hand, "only" 2 racket lengths more to plan. In addition, the typical bunker, small, but strategically well positioned.
Due to the fact that the place is located on a hill, you have a partial view of the sea or the country. The club members were friendly and one came directly to the wait at the tea1.

Even with mega storm and rain playable

In really absolutely unreal conditions played! A local and we were the only 2 on the square! Sorry not very well tons of sheep populate this 110 years old investment links! Despite water without end from the top of the course was to play properly. A really cool old links course! If you like this kind places will also include this in his heart! In fine weather, you also have a great view here!

Even in the winter beautiful

As we spent the year 12/13 in Wales, we were visibly surprised because of previous rains, It also reflects a golf course in Southerndown, where you could note the century rainfall in Wales in any form.
Due to its topography, less because of its location but because the sea is some 100 meters away, as well links course to be designated place, offers everything one expects only as to conditions in the home of golf. Wavy, challenging terrain, deep pot bunkers, undulating but fair greens. Especially in the first 9 "roller-coaster" sweetened with breathtaking views of the sea a the.
If still shows surprisingly the sun, the lucky golfer is perfect!
Overall a very fair course for almost all performance levels, which is especially favored by the generally broad fairways.
The price of £ 45 is to be somewhat higher but justified by British standards for the course.
Only the Clubhausathmosphäre leaves something to be desired. Also this is more British. Unknown ladies who show up without a male escort there are still sometimes viewed with critical eyes of the male clientele...
