I spent six nights playing six courses on Louisiana’s Audubon Golf Trail and if the other ten courses live up to these six I can’t wait to play the rest.

It’s off to the first tee and we are informed that there are twelve par 3s and each nine starts with a par four and ends with a par five. The opening hole can be tricky with water down the left but not having any range to warm up on and recovering from my flight, I was a bit apprehensive, but a missed spent youth sees me VIDEO hit the fairway only leaving myself a wedge to a raised double green that is shared with the 16th hole; which is a nice feature of the course. Next up is the first of the twelve par 3s and at 148-yards from the gold’s – there are three teeing options, gold, blue and white – with water down the left and behind it’s a tough introduction. The total measurement from the back tees for the course is 4,220-yards from the gold tees and at today’s standards you may think of giving this course a miss and if you do you will be missing out on a little gem. I loved the design of the course and with all the par 3s it’s a tough little track and a complete test of your golf game, but what I enjoyed most is that it turns out to be the perfect warm up course for any golf tour of the state.

  • The Vale Resort Unveils Historic Conference Venue for 2015
    Press release 9 February 2015 The Vale Resort unveils historic conference venue for 2015 An historic castle in south Wales, which has been used as stage set for Sherlock, Doctor Who and Torchwood, is reopening as a conference venue for the 2015 season, following the first phase of a multi-million pound refurbishment to restore it to its former glory. The 400-year old Hensol Castle, located within the grounds of the Vale Resort, is undergoing a £10 million revamp, the first phase of which will include introducing conference facilities in the new purpose-built Courtyard Hall, capable of hosting 320 delegates theatre- style and 200 delegates banquet-style. The facilities at Courtyard Hall will be complemented by five smaller meeting rooms in the castle itself that can host between 10-100 delegates per room theatre-style, all of which will be available from April 2015. Phase two of the investment will include adding up to 30 bedrooms and a top-end restaurant with 120 covers, expected to be open by late 2016. The Courtyard Hall has been designed to be energy efficient with heat-retaining and heat- reflective glass, low energy lighting and a natural grass and wildflower roof. Meanwhile, the 17 th -century castle has original architecture, turrets, gothic towers and feature staircases, and its restoration is being completed in close association with the Vale of Glamorgan Council and CADW, the Welsh Government’s body responsible for preserving Welsh heritage. The former stately home, situated six miles outside of Cardiff city centre and three minutes off junction 34 of the M4, is set within landscaped gardens and has a 15-acre lake and serpentine pond.

  • In and About Welsh St Donats
    Photograph (c) G. Woosnam Walks derived from Nos. 57, 58 and 59 Ystradowen In and About Welsh St Donats The settlement of Welsh St Donats has existed since pre Norman times. It was called Welsh, some believe, because the soils where it is located were not in Norman times deemed suitable for arable farming. So it remained in Welsh hands, outside the Norman sphere just to the south. Even in the mid 19th century its inhabitants were overwhelmingly Welsh speaking. The addition of Welsh to its name also conveniently distinguished it from its namesake on the coast. Development of the village has been slight. It has its church and village hall but no other amenity. It exists as a grouping of well-appointed residences in an unspoiled, attractive part of the Vale. The level nature of the land on which it is sited belies the fact that at almost 400 ft above sea level, it is one of the higher settlements in the Vale. Because of footpath blockages in some places and a lack of Rights of Way in others there is no obvious complete circular walk around Welsh St Donats available within the distance parameters that we have adopted. Thus this leaet/web item departs from the format used in previous examples. It describes two walks, for the most part within the Welsh St Donats Community area, that can be used as standalones or, if so wished, linked up by the walker, using the appropriate O S map. Distance Walk A 4 miles. Walk B 7½ miles. Map OS Explorer 151 Cardiff & Bridgend.
