DAY 2 - WENTWOOD HILLS, CELTIC MANOR
In 2010, the Wentwood Hills golf course will host the Ryder Cup. The course is a spectacular 7,400 yard, par 72 course. It is the ultimate test of golf and a superb way to commence this itinerary, which involves three of the finest courses in Wales.
Overnight at the St David's Hotel, Cardiff
DAY 3 - ROYAL PORTHCAWL GOLF CLUB
Royal Porthcawl Golf Club provides one of the richest golfing experiences in Europe. It is never out of sight of the sea or blocked from the majestic view of Swansea Bay or out of reach of a wind that is particularly troublesome on the first three and last four holes. The 18th is played directly towards the sea, the prevailing wind and the setting sun. The course is one of the finest links courses in the world.

DAY 5 - CARDIFF GOLF CLUB
Cardiff Golf Club was founded in 1922 and is situated on the north east side of the city within easy reach of the city and its approaches. A parkland course with many tree-lined fairways provides a stern test of golf, and this, together with its recently built clubhouse, provides a fine facility both for visitors and members alike.

DAY 6 - WALES NATIONAL COURSE, THE VALE
The recently opened Wales National course is almost 7,500 yards and, with water coming into play on a number of holes, it is destined to be ranked amongst the very best courses in the UK.
Overnight at the St David's Hotel, Cardiff
DAY 7 - OLD COURSE, ST PIERRE GOLF CLUB
St Pierre was founded in 1961 and the first thing to strike one is the beautiful setting. It was originally a deer park and has an abundance of mature trees. The most famous hole on the Old Course is the 18th, surely one of the most dramatic finishing holes in golf. A par three of 237 yards, it requires a brave tee shot across the edge of the lake with large trees lining the left hand side of the fairway.
