The Celtic Manor Resort - The Roman Road Course

The course is always interesting to play. Off course facilities are always good.

We've just had alot of bad weather which has taken its toll on the course, give it a few months and it'll be a lovely course.

The course was so water logged it should have been closed. I personally think they Just wanted to get some cash on a bad weather day. We were offered vouchers if we didn't want to play but I personally think the course shouldn't have been open in the first place

Great long course. Ground was wet so no run at all.
Excellent facilities and most welcoming staff.
Will be playing here again

Beautiful course and it was a great challenge and I look forward to playing it again

Played the roman road. Greens covered in ice and solid. Why the course wasn't shut I don't know. Claimed a voucher from them and they give me half my money back. Pretty bad as we only played 9 holes.

Great course, really interesting, variety of holes, bit of water towards the end, plenty of elevation so a very enjoyable round. Was very wet (no fault of the course) and this made it tougher than it would normally be as playing very long. Facilities/staff all excellent, would thoroughly recommend if can get a deal :)

Being new to the game of Golf I'm throwing myself into all types of courses under the stewardship of my Bro-in-Law who plays off 3 (I'm at 25). Celtic Manor just makes you feel special, from be greeted by the staff to actually playing the courses (played Roman Rd) the whole experience is great. Course was challenging but not too scary! Whilst it was wet the course was still in great condition and the greens were still pacy. I've now played The Monty and Roman and can't wait to build up my levels to take on 2010! In travelling from Bath it's only 50 minutes so I'll be visiting frequently! Love it!

The course and facilities are excellent. The only negatives were that we were a 2 ball playing behind a 4 ball and we weren’t called through. Also the speed of the greens varied in the back 9 compared to the front 9.

Played the course after a very long dry and hot spell so the fairways was hard but the greens were in v good condition and very fast. Very challenging but there's a lot of steep hills, we walked with trolleys and was OK but a buggy would be required if your not mobile enough.
Would recommend that you play here.

Though I concur with other reviews which note the Roman road is not packed with character and lacks truly memorable holes it’s still a high quality course. Fast greens and reasonable distance off the whites will challenge lower handicaps. However, for the most part it’s relatively open and not the most punishing course for higher handicaps.

Condition was excellent throughout and overall worth a visit for a reasonable tee time. We paid just under 40 pounds a round which felt about right.
