Pennard Golf Club

Established in 1896, Pennard owes thanks to its creators James Braid and C.K. Cotton, whose legacy is a links layout that traverses the humps, hillocks, mounds and hollows of the amazing landscape. Pennard, unlike many seaside courses, is not located immediately on the shoreline, rather it is perched on the cliff top, some 200 feet above the sea. This position makes it truly unique, providing incredible views.

Pennard is among Wales' finest, and carries a strong contingent of admirers; if spectacular seaside golf appeals, then make sure Pennard should be high on the list.

Pennard Golf Club is ranked as one of the best courses in Wales

Tips for visiting Pennard Golf Club

Rob Houston
UK & Ireland Specialist

Handicap: 18
Visited: August

Known as the links in the sky, it has got a relatively new clubhouse with all the amenities you would need. similar to Southerndown built on common land means the greens are protected from cattle, this just adds to the charm. Pay particular attention when you play holes 6, 7 & 8 do not let the scenery distract you as ball placement is key to score well on these holes. The 16th is the signature hole, go and look at the championship tee box position and imagine the difficulty when the wind is howling around you. Top tip: Be accurate, this course is unforgiving and very undulating, if you get in the wrong place you will struggle to post a score.

A lovely course with some stunning views. My party seemed to enjoy it more than Porthcawl as while still very challenging the rough was a lot more forgiving and the lost ball count much lower. Again we saw that it’s best in glorious sunshine which made for another memorable days golf.

Top course really hard, the 17th is the hardest hole I’ve played! The only think that lets it down is the club house for a top course it wasn’t anything special

Great welcome in the club house and pro shop. There are a lot of rabbits on the course and sadly they have done a lot of damage which means balls disappear down the rabbit holes! The views are absolutely stunning, so even if you aren't playing your best you can enjoy the scenery

Course work being done so the greens were not as they should have been but we were informed of this prior to the visit. Most holes were a tee at one end and a green at the other with trouble in between! A true links course

The "Links in the Sky" lived up to its billing. Fantastic greens, very fast and some really interesting holes. However, a lot of blind shots so difficult if you have not played the course before. Perhaps because of this the round was painfully slow with waits on every tee and a near 6 hour round in total. Wonderful course though.

Great links golf course that was (in the very strong wind) a tough golf course. The course between holes was fine as it was well sign posted, but the course could have benefited in having more clear indications of where to hit the ball from the tee as it was not always obvious. The greens had been over seeded so a little slow, but ran true. Well worth playing and I would return and play again if in the area.

Interesting and challenging course - particularly when it is pouring down with rain ( as we experienced !!) . The course is on common land with cows and numerous public footpaths .Greens protected and were good . Fairways not in great condition and in hindsight our group of 12 would have played preferred lies.

A stunning course "the links in the sky" was very exposed to the strong winds evident on the day. We had a late start due to a Open competition being held (we had been warned) and with a lot of blind holes with marker posts we only just made it in the light. Every green was surrounded by low level cheese wire to keep animals off the greens which was very difficult to see. The greens were very fast and true but a number of fairways are still in recovery mode.
