18 Holes at North Wales Golf Course
One of the oldest courses on Wales’ northern coastline, North Wales was once described by the great Henry Cotton as ‘a gem’. Situated on Llandudno’s West Shore, this natural links course has long contributed to the attractions of this popular resort and helps to make the area a magnet for the golfing tourist.
North Wales offers it’s biggest challenge to those golfers blessed with a hook for it’s front nine runs out alongside the railway line and the back none returns along the coast. It saves two of it’s toughest tests for the end – the 16th and 17th holes. They are back-to-back par threes, and short ones at that, but they are extremely difficult. Nicknamed ‘O Hell’ and ‘Hello’, they face in opposite directions and therefore serve up the wind in your face and at your back. The 16th points directly into the prevailing wind and can require any tee shot from a three-wood to a nine-iron. The 17th thereupon reverses the problem and, between them, they can cause havoc with your score.
18 Holes at Maesdu Golf Course
You can be sure of a warmer welcome at Llandudno’s Maesdu course than that received by a group of Norwegians in the year 1098 AD. They came by sea an had on their minds that which couldn’t be compared with golf. The bloody battle of Deganwy ensued and the ground upon which they fought was named Maesdu (black field). More than 800 years later the same terrain was eyed with less belligerent intent by Llandudno Council who allocated the land for a golf course.
Although Llandudno already possessed the excellent North Wales links course, they were keen to encourage tourism. They achieved more than that because Maesdu became one of Britain’s top professional venues in the 1950’s and 1960’s regularly hosting the famous Penfold Tournament
