Aberdovey Golf Club Course Details, Green Fee Discounts, Reviews

On the north side of Aberdyfi (Aberdovey) is a pleasant links course, bordered by a natural ribbon of dunes and a railway line. Sheep and cattle still graze on the course, kept away from greens by electrified fencing. The 288-yard par-4 16th perhaps epitomises Aberdovey, not a long hole by any means, but one that requires careful shot-making, lest you pull your drive onto the railway line to the left. The excellent greens are relatively flat, like most of the course, and usually protected by well-placed bunkers to left and right. Although sea-views onto Cardigan Bay are relatively few (you stay behind the dunes most of the time) the simple charms of Aberdovey will, as they did for Bernard Darwin and many others, unfurl as you relax into this peaceful and natural golf location.
