Abersoch is the golf course of the Llŷn’s busiest summer village, laid out on the flat land between the houses and the beach of Cardigan Bay. Golfbreaks credits Harry Vardon with the 1908 layout and lists it at 5,847 yards and par 69, so it is short on paper. The club’s own description is more useful: holes 1 to 12 are true links, with uneven stances and, in a dry summer, bare lies, and the last six sit on reclaimed marshland and feel like parkland. It is a course for thinking your way round rather than overpowering.
Abersoch Golf Club green fees and tee times.
Visitors book online through the club’s BRS tee sheet, which takes card payment, or check availability with the pro shop on 01758 712622. The visitors page lists no handicap limit and no visitor-only days, and it promises fairly that the course is generally playable all year, though it is shortened in winter when the marsh holes are waterlogged. Sunrise and twilight rounds are cheaper, but the page does not give the start times, so ask when you book. If you are staying a week or more, the 7-, 14- and 21-day unlimited passes are the club’s best value. Clubs, trolleys, electric trolleys and buggies can be hired; the club advises booking these early in summer. Societies have their own page and offers.

The round, in perspective.
The club’s hole notes give you a fair idea of the round before you arrive. The 2nd is the only par five and looks short, but it doglegs sharply right with penalty areas the whole way. The 3rd is the signature hole, a downhill par three to a tight green with wide views from the tee. The 5th runs close to the beach, and the 6th is another par three, with a green the club likens to a taco. The 7th is stroke index 1, with dunes waiting on the right. Ditches, gorse, roads and bunkers do most of the defending, and the wind off the bay does the rest. The marshland finish is no stroll: the 17th has a ditch at the bottom of the hill and trees on the right, and the round ends on a par three where the ditch and bunkers come into play depending on which tee you use.

Make the trip work.
Abersoch fills up in July and August with sailors, families and second-home owners, so book tee times and beds together if you come in the school holidays. Late April, May and September are calmer. Because the course is short, it suits a morning round followed by an afternoon on Abersoch’s main beach or a walk on the Wales Coast Path, which runs through the course. The clubhouse restaurant has an outdoor terrace over the course, and Golfbreaks notes the bar keeps guest beers.
Liverpool (LPL) and Manchester (MAN) are the nearest big airports, each a long drive of roughly two and a half to three hours via the A55 and Porthmadog. The nearest railway station is Pwllheli, the end of the Cambrian Coast line, about seven miles away by road. A car is close to essential on the Llŷn.
The club lists its accommodation partners. In the village, The Egryn is an Edwardian villa about five minutes’ walk from the beach with eight en-suite rooms and two suites, The Wylfa offers room-only stays two minutes from the beach, and Hafod is a sea-view B&B. Porth Tocyn Hotel sits on the headland beyond the village, looking over Cardigan Bay. Further north, Woodlands Hall Hotel at Edern and the family-run Nanhoron Arms in Nefyn both suit golfers, and the Nanhoron Arms offers golfing party rates.
Make a trip of it.
Nefyn & District, on the north side of the peninsula about 25 minutes away, adds clifftop golf and its nine on the Point. Pwllheli Golf Club is on the way. Porthmadog is about half an hour east and Royal St David’s at Harlech about an hour, which makes a four-course Llŷn and Cardigan Bay week. Off the course, Plas yn Rhiw, a National Trust house above Porth Neigwl, and the boat trips to Bardsey Island from Porth Meudwy fill a rest day.
Find your season.
The course plays all year, but the marsh holes at the end of the round flood in a wet winter and the layout is shortened. May to September gives the firmest links turf on the first twelve holes. The village is at its busiest in the school summer holidays, when bed prices rise.
Yes. Visitors book through the club’s online BRS tee sheet or the pro shop on 01758 712622, and the visitors page lists no handicap certificate requirement or visitor-free days. Rounds can be paid by card online when you book.
How much are Abersoch green fees in 2027?
A 2027 visitor round is £69 on weekdays and £79 at weekends. Sunrise and twilight rounds are £35 and £40. For longer stays the club sells unlimited golf for 7 days at £190, 14 days at £315 and 21 days at £425.
Is Abersoch a links course?
Mostly. The club says holes 1 to 12 are true links with firm, uneven ground. Holes 13 to 18 are on reclaimed marshland and play more like parkland, with ditches and trees, so the round changes character on the 13th tee.
