Royal St David\u2019s is an aew-inspiring place to play golf; one of the most beautiful golf courses in existence.<\/strong><\/em><\/p>\n[\/vc_column_text][vc_column_text]Locals will tell you St David\u2019s is the toughest par 69 you\u2019ll ever face which might come as a surprise as the course measures just 6,500 yards from the tips. However the course is totally exposed to the elements and with a layout that bucks the traditional \u201cout and back\u201d route found at many classic links courses, ducking and weaving in all directions through the dunes, players will constantly have to judge the vagaries of the prevailing westerly wind and returning a score near your handicap first time out will be a considerable achievement.[\/vc_column_text][vc_row_inner column_margin=”default” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” text_align=”left”][vc_column_inner column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” centered_text=”true” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][nectar_btn size=”medium” button_style=”regular” button_color_2=”Accent-Color” icon_family=”none” text=”Book a Royal St David’s Golf Break” url=”https:\/\/www.yourgolftravel.com\/royal-st-davids-golf-club”][\/vc_column_inner][\/vc_row_inner][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row type=”in_container” full_screen_row_position=”middle” column_margin=”20px” column_direction=”default” column_direction_tablet=”default” column_direction_phone=”default” bg_color=”rgba(21,157,131,0.12)” scene_position=”center” top_padding=”2%” constrain_group_1=”yes” bottom_padding=”2%” left_padding_desktop=”2%” constrain_group_2=”yes” right_padding_desktop=”2%” text_color=”dark” text_align=”left” row_border_radius=”5px” row_border_radius_applies=”bg” overlay_strength=”0.3″ gradient_direction=”left_to_right” shape_divider_position=”bottom” bg_image_animation=”none” shape_type=””][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_tablet=”inherit” column_padding_phone=”inherit” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ column_shadow=”none” column_border_radius=”none” column_link_target=”_self” gradient_direction=”left_to_right” overlay_strength=”0.3″ width=”1\/1″ tablet_width_inherit=”default” tablet_text_alignment=”default” phone_text_alignment=”default” column_border_width=”none” column_border_style=”solid” bg_image_animation=”none”][vc_column_text]\n Perched on the cliff tops at the foot of the Porthdinllaen Headland, Nefyn is a thrill ride from start to finish and offers sea views from every hole on the course, meaning actually concentrating on the task in hand is not so easy a task.
