18 Holes at West Monmouthshire Golf Club. Every shot from my round from the highest course in GB.

Описание: Every shot from my round at the West Monmouthshire Club in Ebbw Vale, Monmouthshire, on 9th May 2024.

A beautiful spring day with only a gentle breeze was a perfect way for me to introduce me to the great course at West Monmouthshire. Situated on the hills between Brynmawr and Ebbw Vale, the course uses the natural contours of the hillside superbly in creating a challenging, open course that is exposed to the elements but offers a great challenge to your golf game.

A gentle first two hole introduction gives way to the long uphill third that tests your lungs but the climb is well worth it as you begin to get the big views of the surrounding area that is visible on all the holes from there on. There are several standout holes, with the 14th (the highest tee in Great Britain) and 16th (a long par 3 with 100 foot drop) being my highlights.

I actually played really well and managed to get a few birdies today which helped my card immensely. The weather helped for sure, with only a light breeze and a pleasantly warm sun helping me round, but I can imagine when the wind picks up, the course would become a beast, especially any exposed holes into the wind.

It's also great value for money with green fees being really reasonable. It's certainly a course that I was really pleasantly surprised with. Looks can be deceptive as they say, and the course, although it can look very open and even a little bleak in places, it plays the total opposite and offers you a great challenging round of golf.

Don't forget to pop into the clubhouse afterwards to get your highest tee certificate after hitting your drive off the 1518 foot high 14th tee!
