What the club says: The Vale Resort has two 18 hole championship courses. The Wales National is one of the longest golf courses outside of the USA - at 7,433 yards and par 73 off the championship tees. It opened in June 2003 by Great Britain Olympic gold medalist Sir Steve Redgrave and has hosted multiple Europro and Challenge Tour events. The aptly named Lake Course (par 72) is dominated by a 20-acre lake and has water coming into play on 12 of its holes.

Hadn't been here for a few years. Both courses in good nick though greens bit slower than anticipated. National course is extremely long off even off the Yellows. Lakes more technical in nature. Both well worth playing. Hotel also nice and excellent dinner on the night between rounds.
