- AddressThe Anglesey Golf Club, Station Rd, Rhosneigr LL64 5QX, UK
Anglesey Golf Club dates back to 1914 and double Open Champion Harold Hilton (one of only three amateurs to ever lift the old claret jug) designed the course, which is located on the west coast of the Isle of Anglesey. The 1920 Champion Golfer, George Duncan, is also credited with making further modifications so no shortage of top class experience went into the course design in its formative years.
Established at the start of the First World War, the activities of the club were curtailed thirty years later during World War II when the RAF took over 14 of the original holes on the course. RAF Valley is still a very busy airfield located next to the course – training future fast jet combat pilots – but the flying forces now have their own 9-hole golf course and the club have long since rebuilt their missing holes.
Best described as a rather flat, seaside links course with a heathland feel, Anglesey extends to just over 6,300 yards, featuring small, lightly bunkered greens, the odd blind or semi blind shot and a great par four final hole where the second shot must carry a river in front of the green. Nearby caravan and campsites lend a real holiday golf flavour to proceedings here.
