A two hour drive on a nice sunny day, sandy beaches and fresh sea breezes, what more could one ask for, one might even think one could be in Spain, instead we are in Abersoch on the Llyn Peninsula.This course is right on the beach in St Tudwal’s Road bay, established in 1902, it is a true links course open to the elements most of the year. With 13 holes following the undulating dunes along the coastline one has to use a different approach to the greens as the five inland holes play more semi parkland. Not a long course, only 5847 yards off the white tees, but plays longer than its yardage suggests.Out in 40, and back in 42 give rise to some good putting which allowed me to play to par. Some wayward shots on the inland part of the course reflected a poorer score than what should have been, but none the less it was played to par.
