Golf Clubs in South Wales

[tonto768]

Morning All,
It looks like I may be moving to South Wales in the Spring. Can anyone suggest a nice friendly club where I can enjoy high handicap golf (I'm off 26) has a nice bar and friendly members.

If South Wales is anything like north Scotland you will have to be a bit more forthcoming with the location. You could be within 10 miles of a course as the crow fly's, but 40 miles by road.

I am sure someone on here will be able to give you some great courses.

As the above post, Sth Wales takes about 2 1/2 hrs travelling East to West along the M4.

I can't name them all but have played a big proportion of them, any chance of narrowing it down??

Yep I'll be living in a village called Birthdir which is near New Tredegar.

There are a few near by Bryn Meadows, Bargoed, Blackwood Trdegar and many more......try going onto google maps and put in Tredegar and you will be supprised how many there are around there.Hope this helps

like the rest of the replies it depends where you will be situated in south wales,I play at Neath Golf Club which is situated about 10mins off the M4,it is a super course,hard course with spectacular views.It is a championship course designed by James Braid,and it is a very friendly club immaterial what handicap you play off,you most be most welcome.You can even make a 3 or 4 baller up with myself and partner any time.
