Pennard Golf Club is located 8 miles west of Swansea in the Gower Peninsula, an area of outstanding natural beauty. Golf has been played there since 1896.
The holes are routed over classically undulating and tumbling links-land, full of hummocks, hillocks and hollows and pocked with dunes large and small; in sum, exactly what we might hope to find beside the shore.
Yet this exceptional terrain is not beside the shore – It is two hundred feet above it. Pennard has been called “the links in the sky.” Awkward lies and stances are a matter of course and the rugged terrain becomes more dramatic on the back nine.
