Machynys Peninsula Golf & Country Club
Nicklaus Ave
Machynys, X7 SA15 2DG, United Kingdom


+44 1554.744666
A modern links championship golf course, Machynys Peninsula has been designed to challenge the best players in championship conditions - and yet still be enjoyable for the higher handicapper, by utilising up to five tees per hole.

The shaping of the £3.5m course layout has included the creation of 25 acres of new lakes - salt and fresh water - 12 miles of irrigation pipes and six miles of drainage pipes, to ensure the course is in top condition all year round.

Gary Nicklaus - who has been overseeing the project design on behalf of his father, the legendary Jack Nicklaus - has identified some of his favourite and most challenging holes as the 4th, 5th, 16th, and 18th. Naming the fourth, "the most unique, a short-ish par 4 but a very challenging and a difficult one nonetheless."

He goes onto say: "The 16th, a par 4 that is played across the lake from right behind the clubhouse is probably one of the most beautiful holes on the course. The view from the green of the whole bay is spectacular, whether the tide is in or out."

Given where it is you would think it plays like a links course. It doesn't really. Exposed to wind, but not so much of the 'wispy rough'. Fairway, small amount of playable rough... ball lost. Kind of how it goes. A good challenge though, well kept and definitely worth a look.

One of the best links course around, good challenge for all golfers.

I live local to this course, and have been wanting to play it for some time.
unfortunately both times I played the conditions have been really challenging, almost unplayable.
The wind can play havoc and if it rains as well look out.
if your lucky to get calm conditions, I bet it would be a pleasure to play.
