Royal St David's Golf Club

Royal St Davids is recognised as one of the best links courses in the world. It is a championship course that is over a hundred years old, nestled in among the dramatic sand dunes and open to the elements from the Cardigan Bay Coast. The views of the Snowdon Mountains, the magnificent Castle and, at last, from the 16th tee, the Lleyn peninsular across Tremadog Bay, make Harlech one of the finest situations of any course in Britain.

The course itself, measuring 6495 yards from the championship tees, is noted for a succession of long testing par four holes and five short holes, which vary in length and direction; a feature is the large size of the greens. A professional player has described it, as the toughest par 69 (SSS 72) that he knows.
