Wenvoe Castle Golf Club

Wenvoe Castle Golf Club

Wenvoe Castle Golf Club is a golf course situated in the south of Cardiff in Wales off the A4050 road in the direction of Barry near Wenvoe. It is in the Vale of Glamorgan in Wales.

The club was founded in 1936 around Wenvoe Castle, a mansion that was the home of Hugh Jenner, the club's first president. Wenvoe Castle is a well-designed James Braid parkland course. The course opens with a par five hole with a tee-off from an elevated tee to an undulating fairway, leaving two shots to make the guarded green. The front nine can be quite hilly and there are a few tough examinations in place while the inward nine is flatter and finishes with a dogleg par four.
