The Montgomerie Course at Celtic Manor Resort in Newport is an 18-hole, par-69 resort course that opened in 2007. Colin Montgomerie led the design, with Ross McMurray and European Golf Design also credited in published course records. The routing incorporated land and golf features associated with the resort's earlier Coldra Woods and Wentwood Hills courses.
Celtic Manor describes Montgomerie's design as drawing on his Scottish links background, particularly through the use of deep pot bunkers, while the site's elevation produces substantial uphill and downhill changes. Golf Digest lists the course at 6,196 yards with a slope of 124. The third hole has been included in the book 1001 Golf Holes You Must Play Before You Die.

The Montgomerie was created during Celtic Manor's major redevelopment ahead of the resort's 2010 Ryder Cup era. It incorporated elements of the earlier Coldra Woods course and remaining parts of Wentwood Hills.
Colin Montgomerie drew on his Scottish links background, using deep pot bunkers and strategic demands while adapting the design to the steep Usk Valley terrain.
The course opened in 2007 as Celtic Manor's third championship course during the same period in which the Twenty Ten Course was being established.
The Montgomerie remains one of Celtic Manor's three main golf courses and is available for resort and visitor play.
