Maesdu is Llandudno’s parkland-links course, a mile from the Victorian seafront and close to the A55. The club calls it a blend of parkland and links, on gently undulating ground with views across Conwy Bay from the Great Orme to the mountains of Eryri. It is one of ten courses on the North Wales James Braid Trail, and the club credits Braid with the plan that shaped it. Off the gold tees it measures 6,448 yards to a par of 71. For a town-based trip it is the easiest golf in North Wales to reach: you can be on the first tee within minutes of the promenade.
Llandudno (Maesdu) Golf Club green fees and tee times.
Visitors book through the club’s BRS tee sheet, and the club publishes a visitor tee booking policy as a PDF. Times run in bands: morning from 7.30am, an afternoon band, and twilight. Summer Saturday mornings, from 1 May to 30 September, are not open to visitors, so plan a weekday or a Saturday afternoon. In every season you can add a second 18 for £20. The green fees page does not mention a handicap requirement or buggy hire, so ask the golf sales team on 01492 876450 (option 1), who also tailor society days with food and group discounts.

The round, in perspective.
Braid studied the wind, the lie of the land and the ground conditions before he drew his plan, according to the club’s trail page. The card is built around a demanding back nine. The 12th and 18th are the two long par fives, both more than 515 yards, and the 15th, a 450-yard par four, is stroke index 1. The 11th and 17th are the short holes on the inward half, at 177 and 193 yards. The gold course is rated 71.1 with a slope of 132; the silver tees cut it to 6,096 yards and the bronze to 5,519. Golfbreaks singles out the greens as tricky and undulating, and says your putting will decide your score.

Make the trip work.
Llandudno is a resort town first, so Maesdu suits a group that wants golf in the morning and a seafront, pier and restaurants in the evening. Collectors of the James Braid Trail can earn a certificate for all ten courses, and Maesdu is an easy one to tick off. The James Braid Restaurant in the clubhouse serves breakfast through to three-course dinners from its own kitchen, and the sports bar shows Sky Sports. Spring and autumn rates sit between the winter and summer prices.
Manchester (MAN) is about an hour and a half by car and Liverpool (LPL) about an hour and a quarter, both via the A55. Llandudno has its own station on a branch from Llandudno Junction, where trains from Chester, Crewe and Manchester call. The course is on Hospital Road, a short taxi ride from the station.
Llandudno has the biggest choice of hotels in North Wales, from the large Victorian seafront hotels along the North Shore promenade to smaller guesthouses in the streets behind. The club keeps a local accommodation page for golfers. Bodysgallen Hall, a National Trust-owned country house hotel, is a couple of miles south towards Llandudno Junction if you want somewhere quieter, and Conwy’s walled town is ten minutes away.
Make a trip of it.
North Wales Golf Club, on Llandudno’s West Shore, is a links a few minutes away, so the two make an easy 36-hole day. Conwy (Caernarvonshire) is across the estuary, about 15 minutes by road, and Royal St David’s is about an hour and a quarter south-west. Off the course, the Great Orme Tramway climbs from the town to the summit, and the Victorian pier is one of the longest in Wales.
