Vale Hotel, Golf and Spa Resort - The Wales National Golf Course

immaculate condition, tee box's feels like your stood on a green, greens and even the fringe in great condition, great course only down side was I only got 10 shots!!

Met with friendly staff, the course is in fantastic condition, it is a tough course to test your skills

A great day well worth the price

Considering we have had so much rain in February the course was in very good condition all fairways were well cut and the greens perfect winter ts in operation and only 3 temp greens

The course, like many others is suffering from the amount of rain which has fallen over the recent month. 4 days of relative dry weather prior helped, but not enough- I can only imagine what the conditions would have been like if it had had more rain that week. Playing off mats is never nice, but understood why. Balls plugging and leaves everywhere made it a challenge to find you balls at times.

Despite this, I would come back but only when it’s had more time to dry out.

Both being super excited to play at the vale and making a good trip to play. Staff were helpful on check in and the club shop was fantastic.

We only ended up playing 11 holes as that took us four and a half hours, so we came to the decision to walk back to the cars. The course conditions were really poor. Felt really unkept and we’d not had a crazy amount of rain but the course played like the middle of December

Excellent course. If walking, very long so advise buggy. Greens immaculate and course in great condition

I always enjoy playing this course. It can be wet in the winter but the greens are always well maintained. At the moment we have a dry hot spell and the greens are still some of the best in this area. The course is usually not too busy (unlike the Lake course) hence more enjoyable to play. A long course but the layout is more of the international standardsin length and width.

Beautiful course, very well kept - course layout was good. Forgiving enough for beginner golfers with some wider fairways and largely visible holes. However, obstacle placements and hazards make it challenging an interesting for the more experienced player who would generate greater distance through the clubs.

General attitude of all was very friendly and courteous. The course was quite busy with a lot of groups playing. This only became an issue towards the latter end of the course, where it was taking a considerable amount of time for the chain of 4 balls to clear. I was invited to join a pair in front of me to save the waiting time.

Fantastic experience, would definitely recommend!

Staff friendly and helpful as always. Course realistically too wet to play on in areas. Greens and tee’s in good condition, the rest of the course far too wet to the extend unable to find plugged balls in the middle of the fairway

A fairly good day on the course. There has been a lot of rain recently and the course was very wet (nothing to be done about that). Some balls were difficult to find due to plugging in the wet and the grass off the fairways being a little longer than usual.

Greens were in great condition considering the wet weather (quite a few divots not repaired though).

Pace of play was painfully slow, 3 groups waiting on some tees. We waited on every tee after the second hole.

I’ve played the course before and it’s been much better. An unlucky combination of poor weather conditions and very slow play in front unfortunately.

Some lovely holes and a good variety of golf to be played.

Wonderful course, lovely layout, not too hilly for older players to walk, fairways well maintained even the soggier ones it is January after all, the greens looked immaculate but we played the winter greens which subtracted from the experience but not too much, a little disappointed that the 18th didn't have a grandstand finish in front of a gallery. But overall a very nice course and will almost definitely be a better experience in the warmer weather with the greens in play, would definitely recommend.
