Fairways are in good condition, the ground was a bit hard so ball was running, greens are running fast, but still a little sandy. Only down side still teeing off mats.

Great views from top of course.

The course is well laid out with some challenging holes, it is a fairly easy walking course and in the summer when it is in the best condition it is a joy to play. The greens are immaculate albeit a little firm with frost on our day.

Bargoed

First time playing here. Bit difficult to find as it's not signposted nor was the postcode in my sat nav. Office was deserted but open so I grabbed a scorecard. We'd payed online. Nice course, fairways were great and far better drained than anywhere else I've played recently. The course is on top of a hill but stays on the top so pleasantly flat. Three temporary greens in play, possibly due to the frost on shady grass. About two thirds way around my distance watch lost the plot. Asked a green keeper and he said they change the hole layout from summer to winter regularly. So don't rely on your watch. Locals were friendly and helpful. Finished round at 3.30 but clubhouse was like the Marie Celeste so no chance of food, beer, coffee. An enjoyable day of golf though.

A bit slow

Loads of 4 balls on the course with very little thought for anyone else. They were there to play at their pace, and no interest in calling anyone through. Shame, as this is normally a friendly course with thoughtful members, must have just caught it on a bad day. Gave up after 9 holes.

Not a great course

Arrived to a rather frosty welcome, no pro shop, bar closed, no trolley or buggy available. The course was in good condition but the layout has lots of overlapping holes which felt a bit dangerous. We booked to play 18 but due to slow play left after 9

Fantastic course and the people are lovely

When we was en route to the course we was sceptical of what it would be like .

on arrival the clubhouse was different to what we are used to too And a small ish car park but the staff were friendly enough and some of the locals showed us where the first tee was .

The course is stunning with small greens and lots of hazards but the signage could do with being a bit more clear.

But overall would recommend to anyone to go

Hidden Gem

Incredibly well maintained course, which matched hsome of the other reviews. Firm, true greens, great fairways. A mix of 'links' feeling holes combined with parkland holes. A few hole layouts were a bit confusing, but members assisted when I got lost. A few of the fairways also cross each other but that's fairly obvious when you're there.

Very friendly members. Indoor facilities obviously still closed due to pandemic so had to just put a neutral 'average' rating down for that.

Will definitely be back!
