St Deiniol is an attractive and very enjoyable test of golf, with magnificent views of the local area adding an extra incentive to play your best.

The ninth, a relatively short par four, is a fine example. Your tee shot is critical because you must give yourself a good line into the green, which is quite hard to hit.

The hardest hole, however, is, aptly, the 13th. With out-of-bounds left (marker posts) and right (wall), a straight tee shot is paramount. The fairway bends to the left and you must hit a clean iron to the raised green to give yourself a chance of making par.
