Palmer Colonial
Palmer Colonial (formerly known as Paradise Springs Golf Course): this tract of former dairy farm, characterised by open grassland and bush, was transformed into a beautifully groomed championship golf course in the early-1990s.
The 6,424 metre parkland layout now meanders its way through 39 hectares of towering eucalyptus, picturesque lakes and serene waterways. Akin to a Japanese garden, flowering native and exotic trees and plants abound, while ornate bridges cross watercourses in which lilies jostle for space.
This generally well-regarded layout includes several attractive holes and features. The tree-lined and open parkland layout will test most facets of your game, and should provide a round with plenty of enjoyable golfing challenges.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance.
Walking permitted at all times.
Good
One of the distinguishing features of Palmer Colonial is the clubhouse, with its old-colonial Queenslander design. Designed by Alan Griffith Architects, it is a wonderful focus of the venue.

The Masters: The 88th Masters Tournament at Augusta National sees LIV golfer Jon Rahm defend his title against the world’s best. Pressing hard will be world No.1 and 2022 champion Scottie Scheffler and world No.2 Rory McIlroy (April 11-14).
Chevron Championship: the women’s major championship season gets underway for the second year at its new Carlton Woods home outside Houston, Texas. World No.2 Lilia Vu defends (April 18-21).
Nelly Korda: records a perfect start to 2024 with five wins out of her last five starts on the LPGA Tour. Winning the Chevron Championship also brought the second major championship win of her career.
Scottie Scheffler: narrowly missed out on matching Nelly Korda's five wins in five starts, when he placed second at the Houston Open. Either side of that, he won The Arnold Palmer, The Players, and then The Masters and The Heritage.
Marco Simone Golf & Country Club: With a clubhouse that might befit a Roman Emperor, and a golf course to match, you can be sure of a memorable outing at Rome's most talked about golf facility.
