Tycroes Golf Range

If you've got a golf club in your holiday luggage and you're based anywhere near Swansea, Tycroes Golf Range is worth a detour. It's a proper working range rather than some fancy members-only affair - the sort of place where you can turn up, hit some balls, and get back to your holiday without faffing about with booking sheets and dress codes.

The range itself is straightforward: driving bays, a decent spread of distances, and enough space to work through your swing without feeling crowded. You'll find it just outside Carmarthenshire, close enough to the touring parks clustered around River View and Llandyfan if you're staying that way. Most golfers allow an hour here, though you can make it longer if you're serious about practice.

It's not a destination in itself - this isn't why you'd book a week's caravan holiday. But if you're an amateur golfer who can't stand being away from the game for ten days, or you've got a keener in the family who needs to loosen up mid-trip, it ticks the box. The proximity to South Wales Touring Park and Black Ewe's glamping spots makes it a handy pit stop without eating into your actual holiday time.

Check ahead for current opening hours and whether they're still operating - these smaller ranges can be temperamental - but if it's open, it's worth twenty minutes of your morning.
