Well worth a visit

This is the second time my wife and I have played this course. We came back because we enjoyed so much the first time. Well laid out, challenging without being impossible, and a lovely location. Good value for money, great afternoon's golf.

Greens!!

Fairwood, in my opinion is one of the best courses in Wales, however, when I played this time, the greens were impossible to putt on. They had been hollow tined, which is a nessasary task, however, the greens hadn't been sanded or rolled, making the putts follow the lines of holes, it was farcical.
I hope the course improves for the benefit of the members there, because it is a fantastic course.

Good parkland course!

A surprise round! Lovely weather always helps. But initial judgement was swept away. Clubhouse looks a little rustic, but a good little pro shop and friendly staff. Buggies are great condition and a lovely sweeping course with a few tricky holes! Would happily play again!

Excellent course

Only slight downside for me was how busy the course was. Based on the available tee times on the booking tool I was expecting it to be fairly quiet, which would have been ideal for my first time playing the course. However it was very busy and I felt pushed for speed despite only being a 1 ball.
However everyone was extremely friendly and the course was in excellent condition. Beautiful course, will play again.

Great Course

Parts of the fairways were very wet under foot which was expected after a week of non stop heavy rain. Greens were nice. I can imagine this course is excellent in the summer months.

Sunday golf at Fairwood

Nice course. Was a competition on, so lots of 4 balls. But good to be able to get an am tee time as a non member. Nice course, lots of trees. Staff were nice an friendly, as were other golfers. Club and shop look a little tired and shabby.
Overall not bad at all. £35 for Sunday morning isn’t bad at all.

21/09/22- Golf road trip !

The course was in great condition and the greens were very good. Enjoyable and not too hilly. The owner was very friendly even said we could stay over in our Motorhome if we wanted too. The club house is a little outdated but staff friendly. For the price we paid it was a bargain !

Overall tremendous experience

Probably my favourite course in the Swansea area now, just a delightful course, an easy walk but full of really interesting and challenging holes, you need to have your golfing brain turned on. Superb condition and amazing considering the extreme conditions this summer - very green and perfectly presented. Really friendly and helpful staff, members and green staff. If I lived closer I would definitely join here.

The greens!!

Lively course, well set up. Some great holes, long challenging par 4’’s. Course appears to be tight with plenty of trees but I found quite forgiving in reality.

THE BEST GREENS I HAVE PLAYED ON THIS YEAR. They green keeping staff should be very proud.

I will return for sure

Birthday weekend

What a great course beaten only by the friendliness of the Pro Chris. Chris handed me a complimentary course planner on arrival then took the time to explain the layout. He was also there at the end to ask how our round went. Different class. Will definitely be returning.

Thanks Chris.

Beginners Golf Course

As with most reviews, the staff and welcome was a classic welsh one..

Course conditions were poor, greens had obviously been tinned recently but hadn't been cut in a while. Tee boxes were very poor, pace of play was exhausting. Having played courses for a similar price that far exceed this one, 20 quid would have been max...

Not for me thanks.
