Tourist Information Guide for Golfing in and around the Brecon Beacons.

Wales is rapidly becoming the new Scotland for golfers. With a mixture of superb links and parkland challenges and with reasonably priced green fees, it is no wonder that so many people now select Wales for their golfing breaks.

Aberystwyth Golf CourseAberystwyth Golf Club - Situated on the edge of the Mid Wales town, Aberystwyth Golf Course is framed by the picturesque views of the town centre, the coastline of Cardigan bay, and the Welsh countryside. Founded in 1911, the course was designed by six times Open champion Harry Vardon. This spectacular meadowland course is 6119 yards in length, with a par of 70. The fairways and greens are always in excellent condition and are a test for golfers of all abilities. Visitors are always welcome.- Aberystwyth Golf Club
Builth Wells Golf Club was formed in 1923 when a number of businessmen decided the town needed the facility of a golf course. They formed a company known asBuilth Wells Golf Club 'Builth Wells Golf & General Development Co Ltd' and purchased what was then known as Park Farm.
The club is very visitor oriented, welcoming societies and parties from a large area, many of whom have become regular annual visitors. Builth Wells, by virtue of its central location, is easily accessible from anywhere in the UK. Builth Wells Golf Club is a hidden gem in the Mid Wales countryside that must be played to be believed. - Builth Wells Golf Club

Cradoc Golf ClubCradoc Golf Club is situated alongside the spectacularly beautiful scenery of the Brecon Beacons National Park. Just 2 miles outside the historic market town of Brecon, the Club is easily accessible from the Midlands, S.W. England, South and West Wales
Founded in 1967 Cradoc is an 18 hole parkland course, 6188 yards long off the back tees with a par 71 and is the permanent home to the prestigious Coors Welsh Tournament of Champions. In addition to providing a very enjoyable test of golf, Cradoc also offers excellent practice facilities including a 10 bay floodlit covered driving range plus a double teaching bay, and an adjacent two acre chipping and bunker practice area. Cradoc is the current holder of the title of Welsh Golf Club of the Year. - Cradoc Golf Club

Llandrindod Wells Golf ClubLlandrindod Wells Golf Club - In 1905 a group of local businessmen had the foresight to establish an 18-hole golf course on land overlooking the spa town of Llandrindod Wells to service the needs of the thousands of visitors that flocked to the town to “take the waters”. The course was designed by six times open champion Harry Vardon, and altered some years later by James Braid, to produce, essentially, the superb course of 18 challenging holes, almost 5800 yards in length (par 69), that you see today. - Llandrindod Wells Golf Club
