Wales - Conwy
Golf was being played on this flat spur of land at the mouth of the River Conwy in 1869 and a 12-hole course was built on this stretch of sand hills, ditches, gorse and fine old turf by 1875 but it was another 15 years before the club was officially formed. It became one of the foremost championship venues in Wales but, requisitioned as an army training camp, it was virtually destroyed between 1914-18. Once more members brought it back to life and it has played a major role in championship golf ever since, the quality of its challenge matched by a spectacular setting between mountain, river and sea.
