Moving to Swansea (Wales, GB)

[hradford11]

Hi all, from September I'll be moving to Swansea (GB) and I am wondering if anyone of this forum is a member or has played most of the courses in the area and what club they would recommend joining?

 

Thanks in advance

I haven’t played a lot in the area but have played Machynys a couple of times in tournaments. It’s a great championship course with great facilities and the membership has always been very welcoming

Cheers for that pal , I have had a look at that course, I'm guessing it depends where I get a house to, I have also looked at the pennard golf club, clyne and also Langland bay. Was hoping someone on hear would a member at one.

@hradford11 Been there a couple of times and played a number of those courses. Believe it or not, you have a great choice around you. 

But most importantly, within half an hours drive, you have arguably the two of the best golf coruses in Wales (Royal Porthcawl and Pennard) and another iconic links course Pyle and Kenfig. That's without counting all the other good courses in the area like Langland, Clyne, Neath etc....

Enjoy

One that stands out is the Swansea Bay Golf Club. It's got stunning views and a welcoming atmosphere. As for joining a club, it really depends on your preferences—whether you're after challenging courses or a more laid-back vibe. When my friend relocated to a new city, they found joining a local club was a fantastic way to meet new people and get involved in the community. And hey, speaking of moving, I stumbled upon a fantastic company called Expatriation during my last relocation. Their professionalism made the process a breeze.

My parents are moving to that area, and it would be nice to find some nice clubs in that area.

In Swansea, there are some great golf clubs to choose from. Pennard and Langland Bay are both really good, and each has something unique to offer. If you’re after a place with amazing views and a friendly vibe, Swansea Bay Golf Club might be a good fit.
When I moved, getting help from some residential movers made everything a lot easier. It let me focus on settling in and finding the right golf club instead of worrying about the logistics of the move.

Pennard is a must if you’re into stunning views.
