We played here on a very windy day, and found the course to be difficult and challenging. It's a classic links course which improves as you move through the 18. It's close to Burry Port on Carmarthenshire Bay in Wales, was was crafted by a combination of architects, J.H. Taylor, Fred G. Hawtree, and Ken Cotton, and is routed over gently rolling sandhills, playing to a yardage of 6,627 from the back tees. The fairways are narrow, but mostly smooth, and the layout mostly straightforward. It's one of the oldest clubs in Wales, being founded in 1894. Make sure you stop at the clubhouse for a pint afterwards as the views there are the best on the course.

It's one of those "ugly links", if you know what I mean--stern, tough holes and views of industrial facilities versus Ailsa Craig in dappled sunlight. It gets off to a bit of a slow start, but the middle section of the course is pretty strong. There are definitely holes worth seeing there.
