Mar30 Celtimanor award

It’s all happening at The Celtic Manor Resort. The five star South Wales venue has become the home of the star-studded Celebrity Cup while in 2010 will host the first Ryder Cup to be staged in Wales.

It has just notched another first by becoming the first resort to sign up to the PGAs of Europe Prestige Collection which is made up of a limited number of high-quality golf resorts throughout Europe, each boasting the highest standards of service and top facilities.

Gareth Rees Jones, Celtic Manor’s head of marketing, said: “We are proud to be at the forefront of the PGAs of Europe Prestige collection and to be the flagship resort. 

“We offer some of the finest golf and leisure facilities in Europe and with two new golf courses opening this year – the Montgomerie and The Ryder Cup Course – this is a very exciting time for people to visit Celtic Manor.”

PGAs of Europe Prestige Collection business development director Phil Richins said: “There is little doubt Celtic Manor is one of the finest golf resorts in Europe and it is fitting that a Ryder Cup venue of the future should be at the forefront of this project.

“We are in discussion with numerous other resorts and courses in a number of countries to join us and have already secured affiliation deals with some of the world’s most recognised brands, including Mercedes Benz.”

The PGAs of Europe Prestige Collection stamp of excellence ensures visitors are guaranteed a high standard of service across the board. To ensure it retains a high-level of delivery the scheme will remain exclusive, only awarding its recognition to four resorts per country.
