Southerndown Golf Club

Southerndown is perched high above the Ogmore River Valley, and actually looks down on the celebrated links of Porthcawl. The magnificent views of the Bristol Channel are matched by the amazing course; Southerndown is almost unique, in that there are no trees or water hazards, just bracken, gorse and treacherous bunkers.

Southerndown Golf Club

Originally laid out by Willie Fernie in 1883, Southerndown has been revisited by some of the game's great architects, notable Herbert Fowler, Willie Park and most recently, Donald Steel.

The course is tough yet also extremely endearing and will be enjoyed especially by lovers of seaside golf. While not the longest, Southerndown boasts a set of short holes that are the envy of most, while the closing hole, with its dramatic split-level fairway, will live long in the memory.

The great views and superb golf course are the foundations of this coastal gem, so be sure to include Southerndown in your next golf tour of the South Wales coast.

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

Tips for visiting Southerndown Golf Club

Rob Houston
UK & Ireland Specialist

Handicap: 16
Visited: September

Make sure you tee off well on the 1st a tight fairway with gorse either side of the fairway but be warned you will end up with an awkward lie as it is uphill all the way. You may have to contend with the odd sheep as you work your way around this beautifully laid out downland course due to Southerndown being on common land. The split fairway on the 18th makes for an interesting decision my preference has always been to go for the left-hand side and the easier approach shot. A word of advice if the wind is blowing here from the sea double up on the club!

We had perfect weather the day we played but can imagine with a bit of breeze it would play a lot harder. Remove the sheep and it would be perfect.

What a fantastic position, only a shame the weather was not quite so kind to us, blowy and cold and overcast. Loved this course also and would come back and play again, hopefully in warmer conditions; we're used to the wind blowing! Again great staff and a beautiful clubhouse and facilities. The course is a very good challenge and again in great nick.
