Holyhead Golf Club

Holyhead Golf Club

Trearddur Bay, Holyhead, Anglesey, LL65 2YL

Holyhead Golf Club was designed by the ubiquitous James Braid in 1912. At a glance, the scorecard tells you that the course measures just over 6000 yards from the back tees and looks relatively tame with only one serious hill to negotiate. But, not only are the fairways narrow and undulating, the rough comprises of gorse, heather and bracken giving the golfer a real challenge.

Add to this the variable wind which whips in from the Irish Sea and you have a course that can change its character from day to day or even hour to hour. Each hole offers a different challenge and the greens have a reputation of being the best in North Wales.

Whilst the course looks at its most spectacular in the Spring, it is pleasing all the year round, set as it is, in a very beautiful part of North Wales. Winter golf is always available as the climate very rarely causes closure of the course, with play from separate Winter tees to the normal greens - the challenge is very different.

Holyhead has no trees but gets its character from rocky outcrops, undulating fairways hemmed in by gorse - and sea view, none finer than at the elevated 10th tee from where a 360 degree panorama takes in Snowdonia, the Lly n Peninsula and a vast expanse of the Irish Sea.
