Alnmouth Golf Club Dormy House 3-star
Foxton Hall, Alnmouth, Northumberland NE66 3BE.
+44 (0)1665 830 231
www.alnmouthgolfclub.com
One of Alnmouth Golf Club’s unique features is its onsite accommodation. The Dormy House occupies the first floor of the clubhouse with room for up to 26 guests. There is very little Dormy House accommodation left amongst English golf clubs, so Alnmouth upholds a uniquely British tradition.

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.

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).
