The Vale of Llangollen Golf Club was formed back in 1908 by some of the local gentry and has been extended and improved ever since.
It is a members’ club whose aim is to provide affordable golf of the highest standard to its members and customers. The quality of the course has led to it being a favourite venue for golfers right across the UK and even further afield, but in particular from the cities of the North West and West Midlands. They come to play, to enjoy our hospitality and can stay at one of the many hotels in the town.
We are located in an area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (ONB) and within the designated area of a World Heritage Site (The Froncysyllte Aquaduct). As far as we know, there is NO OTHER golf club in the World to have such a unique pedigree
