Where2Golf says:
Horsham Golf Club: Roughly halfway between Melbourne and Adelaide on the inland route (A8), Horsham is home to a very pleasant and testing golf course. Tall, mature pines and eucalyptus, as well as many other tree varieties, line the often tightish fairways, on this gently undulating and well-maintained parkland layout. When pine trees are in the majority, you might almost be fooled into thinking you are playing Horsham in Surrey rather than Horsham, Victoria, such is the classic nature of this excellent golf course. Stylish bunkering flanks several fairways and provides threatening defences to the top quality greens. Some of the best holes come on the back-nine, which benefits from a little more undulation than is found on the front-nine. The 12th is an excellent doglegging par-4, soon followed by two snaking back-to-back par-5s, the 14th and 15th. If the tightish fairways are not narrowed by trees, then springy semi-rough often lies in wait for any wayward drives. Overall, a quiet, pleasant and natural setting for one of Victoria's best out-of-town, parkland layouts.

Koksijde Golf ter Hille Golf Club: on what was previously open farmland, an enjoyable and challenging links-style layout has been crafted. Perhaps the inspiration for Koksijde's new course came from a renowned Harry Colt layout that existed in the 1920s just a couple of kilometres to the west. Read more... |
The Duke Golf Club: represents the latest in a trio of private courses to arrive on the Dutch golfing scene. All prefixed by the definite article, The Dutch (2010, designer Colin Montgomerie) and The International (2012, Ian Woosnam) have now been joined by The Duke, which firmly targets a business clientele and the corporate golf market. Read more... |
Drentse Golfclub De Gelpenberg: as the oldest golf course in the Dutch province of Drenthe, De Gelpenberg offers a partly-wooded and partly-open heathland layout, guaranteed to test all facets of your game. It is arguably the best of the country's more northerly layouts, together with Lauswolt (50 km away to the north-west). Read more... |
Golfbaan Stippelberg: located 25 kilometres north-east of Eindhoven, this relatively new addition to championship golf in the Netherlands has fast become one of the country's "must play" courses. |
