Golf Courses at Celtic Manor Resort Hotel 5*

Twenty Ten Golf Course

Joining the list of courses to have hosted The Ryder Cup was a new dawn for Welsh golf and the addition of The Twenty Ten Course launched Celtic Manor into the world’s golfing elite. That the course held up so strongly to the almighty deluge during Ryder Cup week is testament to the quality of its design and construction. Visit now, and you will be welcome to manicured fairways and lightning fast greens that mark The Twenty Ten as a genuine tournament standard experience.

And the experience is as much part of The Twenty Ten as the course itself; meet and greet service, shoe cleaning and access to the Ryder Cup locker rooms will ensure you have a day to remember. Just a few moments from The Twenty Ten Clubhouse is a purpose driving range that allows you to be loose and limber come the first tee, just a part of one of the most luxurious golf resort experiences in the country.

2020 saw the European Tour return to Celtic Manor and the Twenty Ten course for the Celtic Classic. Sam Horsfield claimed the title of the inaugural event with a final bogey free round of 67, two clear of Thomas Detry. The win was Horsfield's second in the UK Swing series of events having won the Hero Open at the Forest of Arden a few weeks earlier.

The Twenty Ten Course at Celtic Manor is ranked as one of the best courses in Wales

Signature hole - No. 14: Par 4, 413 yards, SI 2

This tricky par 4 sums up the Twenty Ten's lake-lined challenge, with two separate bodies of water to negotiate. Players have to choose between either a bold carry with the tee shot or else the approach. Most opt for an iron off the tee to avoid a watery fate to the left; while those brave enough to fly the lake can leave themselves a short, straightforward pitch.

Montgomerie Golf Course

Celtic Manor’s connection with Colin Montgomerie began long before he led his European starlets to Ryder Cup victory in 2010; in fact, he puts his name to a championship layout that’s up there with the best UK resort golf courses. Like the Roman Road, there are a few hills to negotiate but the rewards include splendid views around the resort.

The Montgomerie Course has a championship heritage with many holes being part of The Wentwood Hills Golf Course which hosted The European Tour's Wales Open between 2000 and 2004 with the remaining holes remodelled and redesigned from the Coldra Woods Golf Course. The golf course as it stands today is an excellent test with stunning undulations and views and has hosted The EuroPro Tour in 2015 as a standalone Championship venue which was won by Gary King with a 3-round -9 total.

Signature hole - No. 3: Par 5, 609 yards, SI 5

This spectacular par 5 featured in our list of "Five holes you must play" and is arguably the best on the entire resort. Despite measuring a hefty 609 yards from the tips, the second half of the tree-lined hole plunges steeply downhill, making the green an inviting target to reach in two shots. Magnificent vistas over the Usk Valley and Ryder Cup Twenty Ten course make the hole as scenically dramatic as it is challenging.

Roman Road Golf Course

"An excellent resort golf course, don't be fooled by its shorter yardage, the Roman Road is a great test for all golfers"

There are not many Robert Trent Jones Senior designed courses in the UK, but The Celtic Manor Golf Resort has one and it is a treat. Approaching 20 years of play, the Roman Road Course is a mature and challenging championship golf course, building a rich heritage marked with highlights including the 2005 and 2006 Welsh Opens on The European Tour, won by Spain's Miguel Angel Jimenez and Sweden's Rober Karlsson. Expect an undulating test and wonderful views of the Newport and Usk valleys around what is arguably the most society and corporate golf friendly of the Celtic Manor trio.

With the 1st tee and 18th green just moments from the spacious clubhouse, The Roman Road has a real golf club feel to it and provides an excellent place to enjoy some food and drink before or after your round of golf. The terrace is a great place to talk about the great and good of your round with views back towards the Resort Hotel and the mature Welsh countryside.

Signature Hole - No. 10: Par 4, 407 yards, SI 8

A brilliant par 4 that demands two carefully selected and well-executed shots. From an elevated tee players must choose their club wisely, with longer hitters who take driver in danger of running short of fairway. The second shot is played over a gaping chasm to a green some 40 feet below the level of the fairway.

Tips for visiting Celtic Manor Resort Hotel 5*

Tommy Eatenton
Sales Director

Handicap: 14
Visited: October

I'm a keen 14 handicap golfer who takes enjoyment from different styles of Golf Course designs. The Montgomerie with its small pot bunkers dotted around the course and awesome views of the Usk Valley.

The Roman Road offers a more American design with large greens and sand traps to match. Each golf course has it's own, unique challenge.

The Twenty Ten Course is a different beast altogether. Water is the obvious hazard and will catch you out on more than half of the holes.

After golf head to The Sports Bar in The Manor House for a great atmosphere and live sport.

My dining tip is The Newbridge on Usk, with it's Newbridge Fish sharing platter the perfect starter.

Comfortable room but the little extras missing from what you'd expect to find in a 5 start hotel/resort. I'd booked two restaurants; PAD and the Steak at Eight. Food was fantastic, prices as you'd expect from their respective ratings but the price of the alcohol required very deep pockets. You have to book to use the pool and you're only given 45mins to change, swim etc, shower and dry. Breakfast had all the usual goodies and was very nice. I appreciate it's a large hotel but it's a shame the tea and coffee come from a machine, I'd expect it to be served to the table at a 5 start establishment.

As a result we had to book outside of the resort. The catering at the half way houses were also atrocious on all three days there was no hot food, just crisps, which for a resort of this standing is very poor.

The hotel and facilities are great but I was disappointed with the lack of contact and information prior to our visit. Fortunately we were there early but were not made aware that we effectively had to be there an hour early for our bags to be taken to the 2010 course and that we would have to be driven down to the first tee. I had no contact from Your Golf Travel once payment had been made and feel that some notes on the faculties, which are vast and not easy to navigate, would have been very helpful

Celtic manor hotel superb, staff in reception very helpful and polite. Decor very nice too. Had drinks in the bar, had 4 rounds of drinks, waitress had language issues, another waitress kept coming over to check order !! Played golf on Montgomery & Roman rd and both were great courses. Greens superb on both courses. Montgomery was a challenging walk, very hilly but great contours for the course. Roman road took over 5 hours, very slow with group 3 ahead of our tee time, needed Marshall to move them on, but did not happen. Greens on both courses were excellent. Breakfast was very tasty, all quality food and a great variety. Booked through YGT, no issues, had upgraded rooms that were fab, will definitely be back again

Easy to travel to the grill just asked in reception and a shuttle bus arrived within a couple of minutes. We parked in the academy car park (free) for Both nights. Left clubs in car overnight and used shuttle bus to and from The hotel. Moved car to 2010 car park for The final day. Only let down was the meal in the Olive Tree. Very poor for a 5* hotel. Food uncovered left out in the heat main meals dry and unappetising. Service very very slow not enough staff. Would not advise eating there. Apart from that 5* on everything else.

After playing the 2010 course on Wednesday, we decided as it was our first night at Celtic Manor, we all decided to eat in a restaurant on site, but after booking for 13 people, the restaurant decided that they could only house 5 people from our group, so after some delegation with the group, we decided not to eat on site and decided to go to the Beefeater down the road, but with the time of night when we were told (it was around 21:45) that all 13 could not be accommodated for, we scrambled to get some people to the other place for food, but this was too late and half of our group went without dinner which put most of us in a bit of a bad place. After we all met up with some of us still without food, we decided to see the night in at the bar, but the bartenders saw us as a large group and decided to put all our drinks on 1 tab when we specifically told them that we are all going to pay separate, so when it came to the end of the night, the bill was just around £200 for only a handful of drinks, as it then came to light that they had double charged us for half of our drinks as we asked them to split the final bill between some of the group. We were reluctant to pay this as we spoke to one of the managers that was behind the bar that night, but nothing was done and they decided to walk away without the issue at hand being resolved so some of us are still out of pocket.

The reception and concierge staff were very helpful and responded swiftly to our requests for fresh towels (COVID having prevented room refresh), shuttles, taxis etc. The bars were cheery and fresh and prices reasonable for a 5 star establishment.

Everything from the practice range, staff and accommodation was perfect. We also sampled the evening buffet meal option which was exceptional in terms of value, quality and quantity. This venue should be on everyone's to do list. My Caddy Tip - "Greens are true and fair." Stableford Score - 34 points Handicap - 13

Absolutely chucked it down and we had force 8 gale! Played 6 holes on 2010 and were then able to take a rain check and get an adverse weather voucher so we could go back. Went back a year later and got rained off again. Course was in pretty good condition given the amount of rain. "Rivers" through the greens though on Monty course. Another voucher issued, although they didn't cover the full cost and you still have the cost of a buggy that isn't refunded. Good to receive them though. Hotel good.

2010 is a fantastic golf course. We were a group of mainly single figure handicaps and were allowed to go off back tees. Awesome! Accommodation was great and the welcome and service in the smaller Manor House was far better than the hotel we stayed in on a previous trip.

Montgomerie course was unplayable and marshals admitted this. Despite only being a 3 ball we were behind a junior 4 ball so the round took over 5 hours and wasn't marshaled at all.

I've been here a few times with large groups, couples and corporates, each time I visit The Celtic Manor I'm always impressed by the service and quality of product. The Roman Road and Montgomerie are decent courses in their own right and well worth a round, especially if you have a mix of handicaps in your group. Off the back tees they are a real challenge and you have to play well to get 36 points. The Twenty Ten experience is as they bill it, an experience. You are made to feel very special as you make your way into the grand clubhouse and get yourself ready to take on the course. The lockers have the Ryder Cup players from 2010 on them so you can have the likes of Rory, Tiger etc as past users of it. The course itself is a real championship layout with a mix of length and strategy needed to get your way round it. Off the tee it is quite demanding with long tee shots needed to make headway on holes like 2, 4 and 8. The closing stretch of 15, 16, 17 and 18 are as fun a 4 holes as you'll get to finish your round. Have a go at 15 to drive it in 1, do a McDowell on 16 and hole a putt for birdie, duff a chip like Mahan on 17 and err hit in the water on 18 like me. Hotel is nice, bars are good (Merlins or the Cellar Bar at the Manor House) and there are plenty of different restaurants to suit whatever your group wants. All in all, Celtic Manor is hard to beat in terms of a UK golf break. My Caddy Tip - "Keep it in play on all the courses, on the fairway is a lot better than being in the rough!"

Played Montgomerie and Roman Road courses with this year being our 4th consecutive year and the quality of the courses was better than ever. Have played the 2010 course twice already and whilst more expensive it is worth trying at least once for a great experience on a very tough course. The 2 we played are still a real test of skill, especially the greens which were lightening quick and if you're in the rough it would usually mean a lost ball, even when quite close to the fairways. The views on the course are fantastic and at this time of year it was fairly quiet so plenty of time to enjoy the round and not feel rushed by following groups. The resort hotel is excellent, although drinks and food expensive - but it is a 5 star hotel. If open, try the cellar bar where they have happy hour sometimes and a decent value menu - sports screens all around, a pool table and darts board. Unfortunately when we went the french rugby team had secured the venue and other parts of the hotel for their own private use. This was not advised to us at the time of booking and was a great disappointment. The hotel staff were clearly embarrassed and apologised profusely, and it was obvious they were fed up with having to apologise over and over again to every visitor to this bar and restaurant.

Do not however, be fooled by the Hotel 5 star rating as it fell exceedingly short of that rating.

All of the holes were very good on the Celtic Manor 2010 course. I would recommend golfers to play this course at least once, and after once you would want to play it again. The hotel was superb and the room I had was for just myself and it was fantastic. Spa and pool was beautiful. The only one downside to it was they take £50 on your credit card card for incidentals. They charged me more money for my evening meal than I should have paid because they said I should have paid for the evening meal on line, even though I had confirmation that I would be charged less which was on my invoice from yourgolf travel.

Really enjoyed all three golf courses. However the service and the staff were poor. 1. Extremely slow play (they had 250 people on the Roman Road at one time, it took over 6 hours to get round despite the continuous warnings about slow play) 2. Lost golf towel while our clubs were in their care and they did not seem the care and only replaced it after 2 days and a long conversation with the manager. 3. Due to the golf round taking longer than expected we missed our dinner reservation and was told we could only eat at the bar as they were serving food until 9 pm. When we got to the bar at 8:15 pm we were told that they could not serve us any food and we had to order room service. This was not acceptable. 4. Despite booking and having been confirmed as a twin room we were given a double which had to be changed.  5. We were told check-in was at 12 am and 2 pm and when we got there they told us we would have to wait until 5 pm. 6. We had booked a buggy for all rounds of golf. We were told they would cost £32 when we booked these over the phone. However, we paid different prices each day. £30 the first, £34 the second and £36 the third.

Buggies must keep the paths, so if your ball is on the other side of the fairway, take two or more clubs when you walk to it.

We've played both the Montgomerie and the Roman courses. Personally I prefer the Montgomerie because there are some very scenic holes, a handful with spectacular views. However I'd advise anyone playing the Montgomerie, at least to take a trolley and better still to take a buggy. Some of the green to tee walks are very hilly. Overall Celtic Manor is a wonderful golf venue and the best testament to this is that my golf group, who usually never return to the same courses for our annual trip, have now been back to Celtic Manor for three successive years, and planning a fourth in 2016.

The 2010 course was a great experience. I found it great to walk rather than take a buggy. You have to think your way round the course as every hole has its own challenge whether it is lots of bunkers (2nd hole) or water, hills, slopes etc. Great halfway house and was very welcome at that point of the round. 18th was great as it was a challenge to land on the green and not roll back into the water or not over hit it and put it in to one of a number of bunkers.

The Twenty Ten is also brilliant. The holes with water are just visually amazing and also a great, tough test of golf. The greens were extremely receptive yet still nice and quick to putt on. Very welcoming in the Lodge after the Montgomerie and the 2010 clubhouse is superb too. We loved the Ryder Cup changing rooms!

We had a great golf break at Celtic Manor so thanks to YGT! The weather was kind and the service offered by your company was second to none. We were blown away by the resort on the whole. Our bedroom was huge with a balcony overlooking the Roman Road’s 15th hole and the standard of the service in the hotel was fantastic. All the golf courses were fantastic with the Twenty Ten in particularly good condition ahead of the upcoming Welsh Open. We will certainly be returning again and would recommend Celtic Manor to anyone along with YGT or course!

Having visited the Celtic manor through Your Golf Travel last year, we knew we were in for a treat and were very much looking forward to it. Arriving at the hotel after a 2hr 30min journey from Central London was great. In my opinion it's everything a hotel should be; welcoming, warm and replete with amenities, serving great food and with comfortable accommodation! We settled into a lovely meal in one of their great restaurants and then got an early night ready for golf the next day. The Twenty Ten course; WHAT AN EXPERIENCE! The whole day is geared around your enjoyment and it's what I imagine a professional golfer feels like week in week out. Clubs are collected upon arrival and delivered to the first tee or driving range. The you’re shown to your locker and given a little talk about the Ryder Cup history and the team rooms...five star! We were both lucky enough to be striking the ball very well however the scoring was a little more sporadic which points to the challenge of the course. It's a course that is so rewarding when you get a string of pars but will instantly punish you for bad play and you may lose a few shots on one hole if you get out of position. All in all it was a great experience once again. I have booked three trips through your golf travel and each one has provided me with a great memory including a 15 man stag do to Portugal. I will always book my golf trips through yourselves and recommend you to all my golfing pals!

The Twenty Ten Course at Celtic Manor was brilliant. It was in excellent condition for the time of year that we played it and very tough off the white tees at around 7,000 yards! It’s probably a good idea to consider which tees you play from carefully but the overall Twenty Ten experience is certainly recommended.   The Roman Road course was also excellent. The greens were a little on the slow side but very true and overall layout was great! Both clubhouses had very welcoming atmospheres and the service was excellent. Food and drink weren’t too pricey either so we were very pleased. The hotel was brilliant with lovely guestrooms. We’d happily stay here again ! Overall I would give the trip a 10/10 everything was as I expected and didn't disappoint. The YGT service was great too and very helpful so thanks once again.

The wole experience was excellent form arrival to departure. Bag drop and delivery to the practice facilities, a well- stocked (and very welcome!) half-way house and our clubs cleaned at the end of our round, all done efficiently and well. The 2010 course is a real test, as one would expect of a Ryder Cup Course, but everyone in our group agreed it was well worth the trip. Highly recommended day!

The course is good. The issue we had was that buggies aren't compulsory. The course was far too busy with a mixture of group sizes, some with buggies and some without. This meant that with 10 minute intervals between tee times, the course became completely jammed up. As a result, unfortunately we left after playing 14 holes as two groups were on each tee box at the same time. The course is lovely but this situation needs to be reviewed.

The facilities for the Roman Road course are still impressive, but seemed a bit lacking having been treated to the royalty of the 2010 the day prior. The more gentle of the three on site courses, but still an incredible test of golf. The 7th, with the back shelf pin position, was unplayable to anything left short of the pin on the second or third shots, due to the speed of the greens. Plenty of de-greening between the group, but more open to feel free to let the driver rip a bit more than the 2010 and the Monty. Superb value for money and a great way to start or end your golfing experience at Celtic Manor.

Clearly designed by a player that was accurate with mid to long irons, but not the longest off the tee. The scenery was terrific, but the walk maybe not for the more senior demographic. Some VERY tough walks between holes, with severe uphill and downhill walks. Another tough test, but well worth a green fee.

The 2010 Course was the first we played of the three on site courses, and it was a very humbling experience. Having sat at the bar and watched three players putt off the green and into the water on the famous 18th hole - we laughed at (what we thought) was some poor quality of golf. Turns out the joke was on us - the pace of the greens made the course borderline unplayable, with our group de-greening short puts on multiple occasions. Tough test - don't expect to shoot 36 points on this course. Anything over 24 points is definitely to be celebrated.

The course was unplayable due to lack of proper drainage. Mud from tee to green up and above ankles! Unplayable, balls would disappear in the mud! Only played 4 holes, extremely disappointing! As this this was the first round we asked how it compared to the other two courses, it was the driest! We then had to cancel all tee times and find an alternative golf course that was playable. The courses should have been closed and YGT should have checked to see if their recommended holiday was playable!

We did not enjoy our round. The course was unplayable. Spent 5 minutes after every shot looking for balls in the middle of the fairway due to the condition. Any other course would be closed. A prior notice from ygt would of been nice notifying us of these conditions.

90 degree rule with buggies so not much point having one however, not as boggy as the Montgomerie but still very soft under foot. We endeavoured and played the full 18 but players were walking off after 4 holes. Half way house great! Enjoyed the course and will return to play later this year with our voucher. Club house and pro shop were great and the men's locker room absolutely amazing unfortunately the same can't be said for the ladies.

This was the worst golf experience we have ever had as a group after playing for many years, the course should be shut, end of. I would want a refund if I paid £10 for a green fee on it let alone £100+. A real shame as we were so excited to play it and travelled 4+ hours but it we got there and it was in a terrible state, uncut fairways, every shot would plug under the ground and ball would be lost, greens were slow and bobbly. We asked for a refund at the desk but nothing given as we got round the course. If we hadn’t travelled that far and paid big money we would’ve walked off after 3 holes.

A bucket list course ticked off the list! Great to be able to step into the footprints of some Ryder Cup legends! The course has a nice layout to it, it is a nice walk in the valley with a some lovely views. I enjoyed playing the 2010 and felt it was the type of course you would enjoy playing again and again. It’s a nice length, a good challenge with some good holes that make you think and a really strong set of finishing holes. We played in late March in ideal conditions on the day and light which highlighted how beautiful the landscape is, however they have obviously had a lot of weeks of rain so the course was extremely boggy. Tees and greens were in great condition (greens slightly on the slow side, kept slightly long given the recent conditions I expect) but a lot of soft squelchy patches underfoot. No roll on the fairways as a result, in fact balls were just plugging. You’d hit a great drive and then lose your ball because you couldn’t find it plugged deeply on the fairway. Must have found 4 or 5 lost balls that had plugged on the fairway. Flip side of the conditions was that the greens were nice and receptive and fun to attack. Would like to play it in the summer in its peak condition. Only minor criticisms would be I was surprised there was no flag colour coding system or anything to tell you how far the flag was on, no ball washers and not much by the way of on course marker. Even the famous drivable dog leg doesn’t have a bell???

The course was in appalling condition, with all fairways soaked and any ball driven ending up being plugged and non visible. Standing water in many areas making it exceptionally difficult to navigate a trolley around. Mud was over the golf shoes in places. In my opinion a total waste of time going out.

Sorry guys, the Celtic Manor courses are to be avoided in the winter. In one of the highest rainfall areas of the UK, the courses have been built on a clay base with no drainage ditches on the fairways, despite being part of the Celtic Manor Resort which requires that the courses are open regardless of the weather. You know that after you have hit your opening shot on the first, slightly offside of the fairway in what was good looking grass, to find your ball had imbedded itself angled in rather than just plugged and looking back across at your partner in the centre of the fairway with soft ground / water over her laces in her shoes, trying to hack the ball out with a big chunk of mud every shot, that this wasn't going to be a great round. We played the second, looked ahead to see none of the players ahead on the third, I guess they all did what we did and walked back to the clubhouse. Really poor guys, these courses are badly in need of investment of drainage ditchs to be considered worthy if you want to play them at all in the winter months.The Pro and managers all agreed that the courses shouldn't be open but are obliged by their partnership with the Celtic Manor Resort to be open 365 days a year. Will we get our money back, I would doubt it, we were offered another freebie winter round as compensation but who will pay the travel costs to get there ?

I would advise arriving at the 2010 course At least 45mins before your tee time to get checked in and prepped. The course requires you to drive or use one of the hotel shuttle buses to get there as it’s quite away from the main resort. Upon arrival, drop your clubs off then park. Clubs are taken to your buggy or if walking dropped at the starter hut for you. Shuttle service on offer to take you to the first tee. Practise area next to the starter hut to. We had a buggy but could only stick to the paths and not drive on the course which was annoying as it meant you had to park up walk to your ball get the yardage walk back to the buggy to get the right club then back to your ball or take a guess of the yardage and take 2/3 clubs with you! If you are playing with someone who finds a lot of walking difficult check first if you can drive the buggy on the fairways otherwise you will be in for a lot of walking and it may not suit that individual who finds a lot of walking difficult.
