Set within 650 acres of beautiful Welsh countryside in the Vale of Glamorgan, the Vale Resort Golf Courses offer one of the finest golf holiday experiences in South Wales. Just a short drive from Cardiff, this impressive golf resort is home to two championship courses, providing 36 holes of challenging parkland golf surrounded by mature woodland, rolling fairways and picturesque lakes.

The Wales National Course is the resort's flagship layout, stretching an impressive 7,433 yards from the championship tees. Designed by Peter Johnson, this par-73 championship course is one of the longest in the UK and has previously hosted professional tournaments, including European Challenge Tour and Senior Tour events. With tree-lined fairways, strategically placed bunkers and demanding water hazards, it provides a memorable test for golfers of all abilities. Multiple teeing options also make the course accessible to those looking for a slightly more forgiving round.

For a different challenge, the Lake Course offers an equally enjoyable experience. Measuring 6,436 yards, this par-72 layout winds through attractive parkland, with water hazards featuring on many of its holes. Accuracy and thoughtful course management are essential, particularly around the memorable par-three 12th hole, where an island green provides a fantastic test of nerve and precision.

Away from the courses, golfers can take advantage of excellent practice facilities, professional coaching and a welcoming clubhouse, while the resort's four-star hotel, restaurants and extensive spa facilities make it an ideal destination for a relaxing golf break in Wales.

At Hashtag Golf Travel, we recommend the Vale Resort Golf Courses for couples, golf societies and groups looking to enjoy two contrasting championship layouts in one convenient location. With outstanding facilities, beautiful countryside and Cardiff nearby for an evening out, it's a fantastic choice for a memorable South Wales golf holiday.
