Meanwhile, screen legend Michael Douglas has fallen head over heels for the local culture, and its cuisine. Reflecting on his visits to the region, Douglas shared his fond memories of traditional Welsh fare:
“When I first came here [Swansea], I ate laverbread and fish and chips. You can’t beat it over here, and I love all the golf courses.”
Catherine Zeta Jones added: “Oh Langland Golf Course. I do so love you! Even when my game is not loving me so much, playing on my beautiful home course will always keep me coming back for more. From Catherine x”
