COURSE DESCRIPTION
You can be sure of a warmer welcome at Llandudno's Maesdu course than that received by a group of Norwegians in the year 1098 AD. They came by sea an had on their minds that which couldn't be compared with golf. The bloody battle of Deganwy ensued and the ground upon which they fought was named Maesdu (black field). More than 800 years later the same terrain was eyed with less belligerent intent by Llandudno Council who allocated the land for a golf course.
Although Llandudno already possessed the excellent North Wales links course, they were keen to encourage tourism. They achieved more than that because Maesdu became one of Britain 's top professional venues in the 1950's and 1960's regularly hosting the famous Penfold Tournament.
