Hole 1

Hole Name SWAN PITCH

From The Tee Opening tee shot requiring an accurate shot to a well protected green.

From The Fairway Two bunkers short of the green and a hedge to the back of the green.

On The Green The green itself is a bit tricky sloping from left to right and there is not a straight putt on it. Happily walk off with a par and move on.

Hole 2

Hole Name Y DDERW

From The Tee A real risk and reward par 4. Drivable green for the long hitters with the prevailing wind behind.

From The Fairway

On The Green Wayward shots will find mature trees and long rough. Don’t go too long as there is a steep runoff at the back of the green.

Hole 3

Hole Name WEIR

From The Tee Dogleg left par 5 requiring an accurate drive to a narrow tree lined fairway. Bigger hitters will struggle to get to the green for two.

From The Fairway Disrespect this par 5 at your peril. Approach shot will fire into the largest green on the course over 40yds long leaving some monster puts if you misjudge your approach.

On The Green

Hole 4

Hole Name TARRELL

From The Fairway Approach shot is to a difficult green which runs off the the left and right.

On The Green

Hole 5

Hole Name NEWTON

From The Tee A short but tricky par 3. Small undulating green protected by a deep bunker and a bank to the left.

From The Fairway Bail out right and try to get up and down for par, or go for it and risk going in the bunker.

On The Green

Hole 6

Hole Name MEADOW

From The Tee Simple looking par 4, but don’t be lulled into a false sense of security this can be a difficult hole with bunkers and trees waiting for a wayward tee shot.

From The Fairway

On The Green The green is protected by a bunker front left and slopes away towards the back right of the green.

Hole 7

Hole Name USK

From The Tee Sweeping round to the right this 386yd par 4 plays longer than its yardage with the prevailing wind right into your face.

From The Fairway

On The Green The drive is essential to scoring on this hole with the River Usk on the right and long rough on the left waiting to catch wayward drives. Undulating green providing some interesting putts.

Hole 8

Hole Name CRATER

From The Tee Described by many as the best golf hole in Powys we’ll let you decide. Split fairway and a tiny well protected green.

From The Fairway Again playing into the prevailing wind a good drive is essential to scoring well. Trees protect both sides of the fairway and the river Usk will catch a big slice.

On The Green The tiny green is nestled in a crater with bunkers front, left and right waiting to catch an errant shot. Par here is a fine score indeed.

Hole 9

Hole Name PEN Y FAN

From The Tee Last hole and the longest par 4 on the course although the wind is generally slightly helping. A dogleg to the right with mature trees lining the fairway.

From The Fairway Approach shots are to a well protected green with 4 bunkers just in front of the clubhouse. Keep your nerve whilst putting in front of the gallery on the patio.
