Comments: It took three years to make but it's been well worth the wait... No wonder it's already been short-listed for the 2007 Solheim Cup. . . At nearly 7400 yards off the back tees, it's bloody long and tough... A terrific US-style layout - the designer has brought a touch of Florida to a traditional Welsh landscape... There is also another 18-hole course (Lake) and excellent practice and teach­ing facilities.
