The fast draining, firm turf of Aberdovey links makes our course ideal for golf during the winter months. Green Fees are reduced substantially in comparison to summer, however, there are certain restrictions in place over winter to consider before booking your round here at Aberdovey.
Fairway Mats
Fairway mats are in use on the whole course from 1st December 2024 to 28th February 2025. The Pro’s Shop will supply the mat free of charge, and this should be returned after each round.
Why use fairway mats?
With temperatures providing little growth during the winter months these small bits of Astroturf help protect the turf from divot damage which would otherwise take until the summer to repair.
How to use
They are carried by the golfer and if the ball lies on the fairway, the mat is positioned as near as possible to where it lies. The ball is then placed on and played from the mat. On all other areas of the course the ball is played as it lies.
Winter Maintenance
Please be aware that annual winter maintenance can lead to certain areas of the course being repaired and therefore out of play.
This plan of scheduled maintenance is subject to change – please ask the office for updates.
