Cradoc was designed by veteran Scottish designer C.K. Cotton. This delightful 18 hole parkland course is situated alongside the spectacularly beautiful scenery of the Brecon Beacons National Park.
Cradoc provides an enjoyable and challenging test of golf, the 3rd hole recently featured in a Sky TV promotion for Welsh golf. Cradoc has excellent practice facilities adjacent to the course including a 10 bay floodlit, undercover driving range with double teaching bay. There is also a two-acre chipping and bunker practice area for keen golfers to tune-up before their round.

Builth Wells Golf Club is an 18 hole, reasonably flat, easy walking parkland course set in the picturesque Mid Wales countryside.
The course utilises the natural characteristics of the River Chewfri that meanders through the course, and the woodland, thus creating a challenging but fair test of golf for players of all standards.
The golf course is renowned for its superb condition, although not the longest at 5424 yards, par 66, it is a very good test of golf. The back nine holes especially require course management and not brute force.

The 18 hole course was designed in 1905 by 6 times Open Champion, Harry Vardon and altered some years later by James Braid.
Llandrindod Wells is best described as an ‘Inland Links’ course, a true test for golfers of all abilities. There’s the lush upland turf on which the ball sits up invitingly, turf banks and natural hazards, with well protected true greens, which are rated amongst the best in Wales.
