Newport Links Golf Club

The course and its character

The links runs alongside the Nevern estuary below Carningli. It measures just over 6,000 yards, but its small greens, undulating fairways and sea breezes mean accuracy matters. The signature hole is the par-three 15th, played over sand dunes to a small, elevated green. After hosting the Welsh Ladies Seniors Open in September 2014, the course was given championship status. The club has also staged county championships, and every hole has sea views.

Booking and visitor practicalities

Tee times must be booked by phone, and all visitors should check in at the pro shop to pay green fees. A handicap certificate is not required, but players must be competent and know golf etiquette. The 1st and 10th tees are both by the clubhouse, so a quick nine holes is easy to fit in. Practice facilities include a putting and chipping green and a driving range, so you can warm up before your round.

Staying and getting there

The resort has sea-view accommodation, dining and a clubhouse. It is on the Parrog side of Newport, within the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, and close to Newport's beach and the coast path, so non-golfers have plenty to do nearby.
