6holes shut

I appreciate it's not the courses fault that some holes are wet due to bad weather.

However I should've been informed somehow that 6holes were shut prior to our arrival, it was a works Xmas round of golf and we paid £20 for essentially 12holes of golf , which was disappointing. More communication needs to happen between the courses themselves and golf now .

Only 12 holes open

While most courses were closed on the 02/12/24 this course was open with holes 4-9 closed.

The Pro confirmed it’s ok to play 24 holes of golf if we wanted 1,2 & 3 then 10-18 twice.

We only played holes 1,3, 12, 14, 17 & 18 the second round to make up 18 holes.

So good no doubt will return.

I played this course with two friends age range 62-66. With handicaps 10,15,20.

The weather the previous days had been horrendous with heavy rain. Our respective courses Creigiau and Newport were closed.

This course was open and you wouldn’t have thought there had been poor weather.

The fairways and greens were superb.

This course has some quirky par 3, long par 4 and 5.

A good challenge for a parkland course.

We used our electric trolleys and found the walk daily easy considering the weather previously.

There is a large club house serving normal variety of drinks at a very reasonable price.

No doubt we shall return.

Can’t ask for more

This is now my 6th or 7th time playing this course, there’s a reason I keep coming back to it.

Course fees are reasonable. There are other courses within a few miles of Llanwern that aren’t any better that charge an obscene amount.

It is a well maintained, fairly forgiving course, but also not too easy that it is boring.

I would highly recommend this course to anyone of any ability

Nice course

Course was in good condition even in the horrendous wet weather, a couple of greens had damage from birds. But enjoyed the course.

Gem of a course

Turned up slightly late due to traffic which wasn't a problem. Gentleman in the pro shop was very friendly and said not to worry and head out when free.

Course was cut beautifully, greens were especially fast (at least I thought 😁) and overall well maintained. Some lovely holes that test your game from the slopes and pin positions. Course was very enjoyable to play.

Only issue was the pace of play. There were a group of 4 lads with 2 buggys that took far to long to complete holes. I can understand as a beginner it does take time but from where I could see there were no interest to play the game and respect others around. There was a lot of messing about which inevitably left me and my playing partner to skip a few holes to get ahead of the group. Still, we enjoyed the rest of the holes. All in all playing 16 of the 18 holes.

This isn't the clubs fault and I will definitely be looking to book at Llanwern again. Cheers.

ourse was fantastic
