Special Golf Vacations - Greyhound Hotel, Builth Wells, Mid Wales.

This beautiful area of the Wye Valley has so much to offer. Savour fine wine, good traditional ales and great Welsh cuisine in the market town of Builth Wells or relax to the warm and welcoming local company of the Greyhound, unwinding in a cosy bar and restaurant atmosphere.

Recently refurbished the Greyhound Hotel is within easy reach of the golf courses, which makes the Greyhound an excellent base for a relaxing short break. Providing good old fashioned comfort and service is what the Greyhound Hotel is all about.

Within the town is a great choice of pubs and restaurants as well as a very good Curry House.

Cradoc Golf Course.

Overlooking the Brecon Beacons is Cradoc golf course. Designed by the veteran C.K Cotton, the course not only benefits from some fantastic views but the golf is just one of those pleasures you must ensure you experience when visiting this most beautiful part of Wales.

It’s signature hole must surely be the 3rd, whilst only 118 yards in distance it certainly makes up for this by presenting before you a beautiful pond which runs from the front of the green around to the right. If you clear the water you must then avoid the bunkers that await the shorter hit. If you play too safe then the trees behind the green will take care of you- one of our favourites this one.

Builth Wells Golf Course.

Its central location makes Builth one of Wales’ most accessible courses as well as one of the most popular and it is difficult to decide who is more proud of the place, the members or the visitors. The course traces a 5,376 yard trail through woodland and around water.

Many holes demand accuracy rather than distance while small and well-guarded greens ass to the trickery of it all. Even the clubhouse is a collectors piece. It is a listed building, being a converted 15th century Welsh Long House featuring some of the original oak beams. It boasts two large fires which add to the clubs convivial and comfortable atmosphere.

Llandrindod Wells Golf Course.

In 1905 a group of local businessmen had the foresight to establish an 18-hole golf course on land overlooking the spa town of Llandrindod Wells to service the needs of the thousands of visitors that flocked to the town to “take the waters”. The course was designed by six times open champion Harry Vardon, and altered some years later by James Braid, to produce, essentially, the superb course of 18 challenging holes, almost 5800 yards in length (par 69), that you see today.

Located just outside the Victorian town of Llandrindod Wells, in the heart of picturesque Mid Wales, the course offers unrivalled views over the town from which it takes its name, and the soft sweeping hills of the Welsh Marches over whose dimpled heights soft blue and purple shadows make such a play on a sunny day, chasing one another as it seems from ridge to ridge, and causing even the least susceptible lover of nature to pause and admire.
