For golfers, Wales is a voyage of discovery. It is a country so perfectly designed for the game, it's as if the forces of nature conspired to make it this way. There are some 200 courses set amidst the most spectacular scenery. With inspirational links, parkland courses in mountain settings, championship courses in the shadow of mighty medieval castles and luxuriously modern golfing resorts, Wales really is a golfer's paradise.

True golfers know that nothing compares to the soaring flight of a well-struck ball arcing its way over a perfect fairway and onto a distant green.

And where better to play golf than Wales. A country that doesn't clutter golf with status symbols. A place where you can play your own game, at your own unhurried pace and savour the fantastic scenery. The settings and locations in this unsullied and beautiful land will inspire you to reach new golfing heights.

189 is a lot of golf courses in anyone's guidebook. But, in Wales, with just 3 million people, we've plenty of room for visitors and plenty of access to tee times. 'Play through' isn't something you hear very often. You can go at your own pace - even if you are stopped by a bunker (or one of 641 castles). You'll find welcoming clubhouses, unpretentious pro shops and an honest, unstuffy atmosphere. Isn't that how golf should be?

Wales has some of the world's top links course. They don't come much higher than Pennard, the 'links in the sky' on a cliff-top west of Swansea. Closer to sea level, there's Royal St David's (1,000 years ago it was under water). This links course is hailed by many professionals as the world's toughest par 69. Or by many amateurs as the world's toughest par 96. And if you like a sea view, stroll along the National Trust cliffs at Nefyn. Actually, it's difficult not to - the fairways stretch for almost a mile into Caernarfon Bay.
