DAY 6 - PENNARD GOLF CLUB
Travel west to Pennard Golf Club. They call Pennard the links in the sky because although it has all the trappings of a seaside links course it is perched high on a cliff-top west of Swansea.

DAY 7 - LANGLAND BAY GOLF CLUB
The Langland Bay course is one of several attractive courses in and around the Gower Peninsula that have a distinctive appeal to visitors. The appeal stems from its magnificent views.
