The Courses

Everything about this operation says quality - from the standard of the facility to the professionalism and friendliness of the staff. Visitors are regarded as important customers and catered for in a way that sets an example for other clubs to follow. Since opening in 1994, the Vale Resort has quickly established itself as one of the UK's premier corporate golf and golfing break destinations and it is easy to see why.

Wales National Course

The Wales National was opened in June 2003 by Sir Steve Redgrave. It is one of Europe's newest championship courses and - at 7,413 yards off the championship tees - it's one of the longest outside of the USA. The course offers a mixture of mature wooded areas, wide and narrow fairways and vast water and bunker features. This is all set within local beautiful Welsh countryside, amongst an abundance of wildlife including badgers, swans, rabbits and hawks. The par 73 Wales National has already hosted a Sky-televised Euro-Pro Tour event and with greens constructed to USGA standard, the course is designed to be a challenging test for even the lowest of handicaps. Golf World magazine rates its 16th hole as one of the top 10 par 4s in the UK, whilst the 2nd hole is the longest par 5 in Wales.
