Vale of Llangollen Golf Club

Denbighshire, Wales

Vale of Llangollen Golf Club is an 18-hole, par 72 parkland course measuring around 6,600 to 6,700 yards from the back tees, situated on the valley floor beside the River Dee in Llangollen, Denbighshire, north Wales. The club was founded in 1908 with an original nine-hole layout, which was extended to a full 18-hole course at the end of the 1960s. The trees planted during that expansion have since matured, transforming what was formerly farmland into a well-established parkland setting. No single architect is prominently credited with the current layout. The course carries a Standard Scratch Score of 73 against a par of 72, reflecting its genuine difficulty, and has been awarded Gold Status by the HSBC course ranking system, placing it widely among the top inland courses in north Wales. The setting is among the most distinctive of any inland course in Wales. The fairways run along the banks of the River Dee, which comes directly into play on several holes, with the wooded hills of the Llangollen Valley rising steeply on all sides. The ancient hilltop fortress of Castell Dinas Bran overlooks the course, and the nearby Pontcysyllte Aqueduct, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, forms part of the wider landscape. The front nine is generally considered the more scenic half, with the river a constant presence. The signature hole is the 9th, a 436 to 439-yard par four that doglegs left around a line of trees while the River Dee runs tightly along the right side of the fairway and green, leaving almost no margin for error on the approach. The river holes at the 15th and 16th are also widely regarded as outstanding. The opening hole is noted as one of the more demanding starters in British golf. The club has hosted a range of national competitions including the Welsh Team Championships, Welsh Ladies Championships, Welsh Girls Championships, and Welsh Ladies Team Championships, as well as various county and professional events. Golf World ranked it 36th in Wales in 2023.
