Take a scenic run down the Mawddach Estuary to Aberdovey, and you will discover a classic links golf course tucked between the sand dunes and the rolling hills. Reputedly, Aberdovey golf course started off in the 1880s with nine flower pots sunk into the turf. Aberdovey is now a wonderful 18 hole golf course which you'll enjoy just as much as club members Ian Woosnam and and Peter Baker.

Not many golf courses can claim to be in the shadow of an ancient castle, but that much is true of Royal St David's at Harlech where the bent and fescue fairways are watched over by this historical stone bastion built by Edward I. Royal St David's is a traditional championship links course with a succession of long testing par fours and five short holes which seldom head in the same direction.

Porthmadog is another favourite course with hotel guests; half links, half parkland and while the front nine holes are generally away from the sea, as players go around Samson's Bay on the 12th, the bracing frets can turn the fate of many a game. The 14th has been dubbed the "Himalayas" where golfers must keep their faith whilst driving over a huge natural bunker to the fairway hidden from the tee.
