Wentwood
Hills (par 72) - WALES
The par 72 Wentwood Hills opened in May 1999, and is the venue for
the 2010 Ryder Cup and the home of The Wales Open.
Course Profile
…a bit of Augusta, a bit of Florida and a lot of Wales!!
Robert Trent Jones Jnr has described it as 'a true championship course
that combines a hilly landscape with the more traditional links-like
features of an estuary. There's great variety here.'
A feature of Wentwood Hills singled out by many people is the magnificent
view from the second hole. Journalist Richard Simmons wrote in Golf
International magazine: "The full splendour of the lower holes
is laid bare as you are treated to what must be one of the finest
views in British golf."
Roman Road (par 69)
Roman Road, the first of the resort's courses, opened in 1995 and
soon established a reputation as one of the top courses in Britain.
Roman Road
Course Profile
A championship venue for top professional and amateur events, Roman
Road is nevertheless ideal for all levels of play. The course offers
a variety of tees on each hole and has generous fairways and greens.
The Romans
Roman Road takes its name from the ancient East-West highway of Roman
Britain crossing its fairways to the nearby Roman fortress town of
Caerleon from London and Bath. Several Roman roads, including the
main route connecting the fortress of Caerleon with the town of Caerwent,
cross the land where the Roman Road is situated.
