Machynys - Monks Island Resort

Review

Machynys – Monks Island Resort is one of those rare destinations that effortlessly impresses on every level. As someone who has visited countless golf courses over the years, very few have compelled me to write about them, until now. This is the only Nicklaus-designed golf course in Wales, and the expectations that come with such a prestigious name are certainly met, if not exceeded. The resort is not just about championship-level golf; it’s a full-bodied experience that caters to absolutely everyone. From the luxurious spa to the state-of-the-art golf centre, the attention to detail and quality of service is clear from the moment you arrive. A particular highlight is Frederick’s Brasserie, perched within the clubhouse with panoramic views across the Gower Peninsula. The food is as impressive as the setting. Whether you're a golfer, a spa-goer, or simply someone seeking a special day out, Machynys delivers excellence across the board.
