The course lies a mile and a half
inland of Holywell in the village of Brynford on a plateau
800 feet above sea level. There are views of Moel Fammau and
the Clwydian Range to the south and west, while on clear days
the distant majesty of Snowdonia reveals itself some 40 miles
away.
The softness of the turf and the limestone subsoil are responsible
for a course which dries quickly and is never fatiguing. There
are no tiring up-hill holes and the fairways are slightly
undulating. The course which was rearranged and established
as an 18 hole course in 1991 is a compact links type course,
with many natural hazards, such as quarries, water hazards
and grass bunkers providing a very challenging test for low
handicap
players, and yet giving the average player 18 holes of interesting
and sporting golf. A hallmark of the course is the very diversity
of the holes with no two alike thus creating an above average
challenge to golfers of all abilities with many thought provoking
shots required to keep the mind focussed.
There are new and modernized changing facilities for ladies
and gentlemen. The club is a Registered Licensed Non-residential
Establishment.
