2010, Amazing course!

Amazing course but very long! The fairways were very boggy in parts and every ball was plugged! The greens were in amazing condition and was pretty fast greens!
30 mins before tee off, you go to the range where you have complimentary balls to hit! (As many as you like) and then you go over to the tee box 5 mins before tee time!

Should have been closed

First of all let me say The staff were lovely. From walking in to out on the course and the bar, all happy to help.

The course however should have been closed. Losing balls in the fairway due to severe boggy conditions.

They kept it open purely to continue making money, the offer of 4 holes of play and then getting a refund didn’t suit us as one of the players had travelled a great distance to play. The course should have been close well in advance. Not worth the £56 price tag for those conditions.

Immaculate

The fairways was boggy but understandable for the amount of rain we have had but hats off to the greenkeepers, not a single bit of mud or water on the greens or tee box. Amazing condition.

Should have been closed

Utterly impossible conditions. No warning and no apology. £100 per head to walk around a bog. Took 6hrs to get round - 2 of which were looking for balls on the fairway. Disgraceful!!!

Lovely course

What a course, to follow in the footsteps of the successful Ryder cup team and play this course was yet again everything you could hope or ask for, also helps if you have an half decent round too, stunning course and stunning scenery to go with it, never get bored playing this course even if it’s only once a year

Should not have been open

As always, the experience and staff and what they give you was second to none.

Unfortunately, through no fault of their own the weather was and had been atrocious for the last week.
What is their responsibility though is allowing people who have paid a lot of money play on ground that is not suitable for that much rain.
The fairways were like walking on a river on some holes.
When paying the sort of money that they charge due to the premium of being a Ryder Cup venue it is their responsibility to be offering you a premium product and if if not presentable as such then they should not allow you out there.
The course was unplayable in certain areas and with fairways in conditions you would expect at a local pay and play.
Every bunker had water in it.
I understand they have to make money and it is your responsibility if you wish to play or not, but with such a long cancellation policy that is impossible to decide upon with the South Wales weather.

A little underwhelmed

The course was in good condition, green's were rolling great and pretty fast.
Plenty of staff out there maintaining the area's.
However the course is a little uninspiring and there aren't too many holes that stick out in your mind. It's obvious to see why it held a Ryder Cup, because the way the course is set up, large crowds could easily line fairways and around greens etc, but take them crowds away and there's little to catch the eye.
There are a few really nice holes, but not enough to justify the price.
The pace of play is slow, took over 5 hours for a 4 ball. This is mainly due to people in buggies have to stick to cart paths. This often means they're 100 yds away from their ball and have to walk back and to for clubs, yardage etc.
There's a few nice touches like a photographer on the first,free bag tags etc, but at the price you pay you'd want something extra. Also it £6.50 a beer in the club house, shocking! And you can't pay cash or on card, you have to pay by some silly app. Slightly disappointed by whole experience, I won't be rushing back!

A little underwhelming

In the summer I think this would be a very scenic course. It was obvious to see that the greens had just been hollow tined so hopefully later on in the year they would be in better condition and the ball will roll a better.

I felt the course was a little bland, I didn’t come off the course and think ‘I’ve just played a Ryder cup course’’. However this could have been down to the time of year.

Great value - Covid restrictions still in place

Excellent value for money at moment, mainly due to lack of normal service and benefits that you would get so rates have been reduced.

I understand the restrictions they are working under so very happy to get a good deal.

Perfect weather
Used cart

2010 course , 8 years after ryder cup

BE WARNED

i'm a walker usually BUT you need buggies here as the green to next tee distances are often big, and as vast majority of golfers justifiably take buggies, if you walk you will constantly be having to let groups through
Now the important issue is that the policy of CM is that YOU MAY NEVER LEAVE THE CART PATH WITH A BUGGY . so most times you have as far to get to your ball as your shot is to the green , you cannot see your distance to green ,obstacles , need to go high or low etc etc and will often have the wrong club with you when you get to the ball (at ones stage I just took whole bag off the cart and went to my ball a few times .

its incredibly annoying , CM staff say its the greenkeeper's demand to protect the course , well that's rubbish , I have played courses like Gleneagles, London Club and the Grove that are in far better condition than CM2010 and have no such silly restrictions.

Due to this , I would warn against paying up for Celtic Manor , it spoils the experience completely , pity as it's a terrific golf course layout

Everything was perfect, from the course to the weather, the only downside being that as 3 of us had booked a tee time, the staff at Celtic manor decided to allow a bloke who had clearly never played golf before to make up a 4 ball, the waiting around and continuous drops he made meant that it put a slight dampener on the day
