Parc Golf Club

Parc Golf Club, at Coed Kernew near Newport, was founded in 1988 and plays as an 18-hole, par-70 layout measuring 5,884 yards. That length and par put it towards the shorter end of full-length courses, a profile that tends to suit club golfers and societies wanting a complete round without the demands of a championship-length layout. Newport sits at the mouth of the River Usk in south Wales, historically a docks and steel town and now a city blending industrial heritage with expanding residential and business districts; Coed Kernew lies on its western edge, within the farmland and mixed development separating Newport from Cardiff along the M4 corridor. As a course dating from the late 1980s, Parc belongs to a generation of Welsh clubs built as the game's popularity grew beyond its older, established venues. Its postcode, NP10 8TU, places it a short drive from both the motorway and central Newport.
