The Vale Resort

Looking to inject a slice of luxury into your Cardiff golf trip? Well, stop the search. The Vale Resort is proudly Wales' Best Golf Hotel, according to World Golf Awards.

With two of Wales' top rounds on your doorstep, the possibilities are endless. And the clubhouse, restaurants, spa, and dining facilities are everything you deserve.

At 15.3 miles from Cardiff city centre, you're a short ride away from exploring the bouncing Welsh capital. This might just be the best stay-and-play location in Cardiff.

Top Facilities


Before your round, grab some grub to fuel your round and make it a classic sausage, bacon, and egg bap--the breakfast of champions!

After schooling your friends on the greens, unwind in the world-class spa.

Whether you dip in the whirlpool bath, sweat out the alcohol in the sauna and steam rooms or float around carelessly in the pool, this is an ideal way to soothe those achy muscles from your killer swing.

And this is the training ground for the Welsh National Football Team. Maybe you could ask Gareth Bale for a cheeky round if you bump into him?

The club boasts a state-of-the-art gym with all the equipment you need to maintain your fitness routine.

In the evening, indulge in the 10oz Kansas City Strip steak with truffle and chive potatoes, and finish off with one of the insane desserts--remember, calories don't count on holiday!

Why not share a bottle of wine with the gang while you dine and catch up?

As well as this, each room features room service, free high-speed Wi-Fi, air-conditioning, an ensuite bathroom, a flat-screen TV, and tea and coffee facilities.

Please Note
The Vale is an award-winning golf hotel for a reason.

And Radyr Golf Club is only 9.7 miles away, the 23rd-best course in Wales. Head over and discover why it won the 59-Club Service Excellence Award!

In your downtime, visit the lively Welsh capital, famous for electric nightlife, packed-out bars, and popular restaurants for a big night out.

Is there a better place in Wales for the gang's party?

Getting to The Vale is an absolute doddle from anywhere in the UK. Cardiff Airport is only 11.8 miles from the resort, and free parking is available for anybody driving.

It's dead simple.
