About Rhos on Sea Golf Course

Rhos on Sea Golf Course, nestled in the scenic Conwy region of North Wales, is renowned as the friendliest golf course in the area, offering a delightful parkland layout that caters to golfers of all skill levels. The course features wide fairways and raised tees, complemented by Mackenzie-style two-tiered greens, all framed by picturesque trees and breathtaking views of the North Wales mountains and coastline.

Origins

Local architect W. H. Goldsmith founded the club in 1899 after being asked to create a seaside course over 120 acres of Rhyd Farm.

The farm's original house initially served as the clubhouse.

Did You Know?
Before local-government reorganisation, a golfer on the 12th tee could stand in one county while the ball was teed in another.

Design Philosophy

The present course owes much to Simpson & Co. Golf Architects Ltd., commissioned in 1934 to redesign the layout.

Development

The playing order was reversed in 1981, bringing the 18th green to the clubhouse. More recently, extensive drainage work addressed the site's longstanding flooding problems.

Today

Rhos-on-Sea remains an 18-hole visitor-friendly parkland club in Conwy.
