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

I've played over 30 courses in s. Wales area and this is definitely one of the best.

Course was in superb condition, fairways , greens and bunkers.

Whilst a few holes are forgettable it's comparable to 2010 but a fraction of the price.

Best course I've played, fantastic condition all over

Perfect fairways and greens. Medium challenge. Suitable for all handicap. Played here 2nd round. Will play again when I’m in Cardiff next time. 20 mins from Cardiff central.

Course was in great condition. Played in perfect conditions so fantastic value for money

Only downside was the buggies, have gone up in price in last few months (now £30) due to investment in gps systems presumably? Nightmare on the course. Ask you to stick to paths and when you do it says you are ok the fairways and reduces speed right down. Not sure why it does this, I understand they want to protect course but when it drops you down to speed 2 it would be quicker walking!

Course was in great condition for the time of year and at £18 on a Saturday morning it’s a bargain. Although the last hole is a let down, there are many great holes in the 7000+ yds that make up for the weak last.

The new drainage on this course has clearly made a difference.

The fairways were freshly cut and the greens, although being spiked were rolling trust and fast.

The fairways were incredible, the divot after striking the ball felt like knife through butter.

Its great to play a longer course and getting the challenge of a longer second shot. Managed to play to level par on 12 Handicap and considering the wind and only 2nd round ever I’ll take that

Great layout, views, blind shots, test of course management.

Very long course with plenty of hazards.

I would not recommend to high handicappers....unless you go in knowing it will be very frustrating.

Will definitely try to play again while I’m in the UK.

Great day today playing the national. Course in great condition whilst cold course looked immaculate and ball rolled great on the greens

I know its been a pretty wet and particularly cold winter but this course never seems to improve. Its a long and difficult layout with some great holes. The issue is with the faiway conditions and pockets of water pools that make the going particularly tough. Best wait until the summer month to play it again.

Great course. Tough for high handicappers but a good fair challenge. Heavy underfoot but that’s wales for you. Greens in good condition and fairway. Rough was tough. A good day.

Lovely course, in decent condition considering time of year, no very boggy and a pleasure to play

Good variety of holes, excellent condition considering the weather

Great course. Great condition. Great venue. Great facilities. Great colleagues.

Excellent course, top condition! Pick your time of day to play a top course for reasonable money! Highly recommend!

A fantastic golf course,its not an easy course to play.most of the holes are tree lined with water and bunkers..every hole is a different challenge with sloping fareways

and incredibly greens..well worth playing this golf course...

is a outstanding golf course ,when is a sunny day i will be back again

This course was absolutely stunning. The conditions were ideal. Some long par 5's but not to hard if you stayed on the fairway. Enjoyable to play. Everything in my opinion was perfect today.
