What the club says: This is an attractive parkland course with excellent drainage and a great reputation for being in good condition all year round, particularly the greens. Its flat terrain makes for an easy and enjoyable walk, with breathtaking views of the Brecon Beacons providing an extremely pleasant and popular place to play golf. After a game you can enjoy the comforts and a warm welcome in the well-equipped clubhouse with a snack, a meal or just a drink.
Although, a nine hole course, every hole demands the greatest respect for the accomplished golfer. Many of the holes are shaped by superb mature trees and hedgerow, which when in full leaf provide an additional challenge. Eighteen holes of golf at Brecon measures 6,068 yards played from the white tee boxes with a par and standard scratch of 70, so it is certainly not your quintessential short nine-holes.

Welcoming
Although only 9 holes this is a well maintained and friendly golf course, not too challenging but enough interest to satisfy most mid to high handicappers. Gorgeous views of the Brecon Beacons (weather permitting!)Reviewer Rating

Awesome little course
Nice little course with a variety of holes.Although reasonably flat considering the geography of the landscape, hole 1,2 ,8 & 9 offer a hill or some form of undulation.
From the tee you will be asked to fade & draw the ball or you might be better off taking a shorter club than your driver. Drives here require accuracy otherwise you'll be in the trees but the rough was well maintained (although I did manage to lose two balls because I played very poorly). Winter mats were being use in April but that was ok as they're good quality with plenty of space. Green are hard and well maintained.
AT £10 for 9 holes it is excellent value for money. I've also heard from friends that meals their are superb.
Friendly members and staff, I will most certainly be going back.

Local Course
As someone who has only starting taking golf more seriously in the last couple of months, this course is ideal to help me improve my game. Fairways are wide to allow for straight drivers to flourish, however if you hit it into the rough, you're in for a challenge! Can't have any complaints.Reviewer Rating

I enjoyed this course. Nice and flat with decent greens. Not too penal but the rough did grab the club today.
I really liked the 8th hole with its double fairway and green in an arena bowl with a couple of surprises.
Staff were very welcoming and accommodating. A good advert for the friendliness of the Welsh as were the members.

Well what a great nine hole course we had a four ball for £40. A very warm welcome and four pints of beer for £10.40. We played it in march this year and found the conditions under foot very dry considering all the rain we've had. It played a bit short off the temporary tees but would be a much better challenge off the summer tees. Anyone making 4 up the eight hole is having a good day.

Friendly welcome good challenge. Bar staff friendly. Will play there again. When many courses seem affected by the weather the greens ran smooth and there was no water lying on the course. The 7th and 8th are a real test into the wind.

The course is a good challenge, a nice easy walk, well drained in winter. The greens are small and holes are typically as you see them. Changing rooms are in good condition, a friendly welcome was had and the food (which has to be booked prior to going) was a good basic meal, perfect for an after round snack.

9 hole course that is sufficient if youre looking for a quick round. The course is flat and open. The rough is grown thick and is quite tough to get out of with any distance. Tee boxes could be in better repair, a lot of unrepaired divots. Some of the greens are patchy and in need of repair. Facilities are poor, club house not open, one vending machine, 1 warm up net and thats your lot. Green fees are way over priced and had it not been for discount I wouldnt have entertained this course.
