Tenby’s classic links course beguiles visitors with its mellow undulating greens and awesome sea views. You’re never far away from a dazzling vista of the sea, and at the high point of the course on the 17th hole you can catch a sublime glimpse of the coastal waters and Caldey Island beyond.

We’re proud of the fact that we generally play 365 days a year without pause – due to the way the sandy terrain drains and absorbs rainwater. Our buzz words are ”when it rains it drains!”. This means the course doesn’t turn into bog land in poor weather and is usually accessible by electric buggy.

Tenby is not in the style of a manicured parkland course. When you tee off here you sometimes have to factor the natural terrain into your game. Playing here is often described as golf at its most natural, with rolling fairways, rising dunes, and now and then the occasional tricky pot bunker and blind shot. This doesn’t mean it’s a rough course; the greens are consistently in immaculate condition and run fast and true. It is in fact a course that caters for both novice and veteran.

The lie of the course developed naturally in parallel with the dunes and wild grasses surrounding the greens, but it took the influence of the pioneering designer James Braid to help shape the route into its current character as a “classic links course”.

The greens and fairways here are always fast and consistent, but Tenby has its quirks as a course, ensuring that you must play a canny game to avoid being caught out by the hazards of the rough. Tenby is always a highly rewarding course, but many of the holes require a deft touch when teeing off. As one perceptive golfing journalist has put it, “at Tenby a little restraint goes a long way”.

The total length of the course is 6,613 yards.
