Bramley
Bramley Golf Club: set in the heart of the Surrey Hills, Bramley Golf Club offers one of Surrey's many lesser-known gems. With a par of 69, the undulating layout was expertly refashioned by the great James Braid in the 1930s.
Holes 2 thru' 5 provide a testing start to your round, with an easier-going stretch to follow in the layout's middle section. The closing four-hole quartet once again demands your A-game, with a good length tree-lined par-5, followed by a very attractive 4-3-4 finish. There's water in play at both the par-4 16th and par-3 17th on the closing stretch.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance.

The history of nearby Bramley village goes way back to Saxon times, and earlier. The name Bramley means a clearing in the broom (bushy yellow-flowering shrubs). At the time of the Domesday Book (1086), the Manor of Bramley was much larger than it is today, comprising much of the western portion of Blackheath Hundred, and including the neighbouring villages of Shalford, Wonersh, Hascombe and West Cranleigh.
Presidents Cup: Geoff Ogilvy’s International Team take on Brandt Snedeker’s USA Team at the revered Medinah Country Club, near Chicago. The Internationals are trying to halt a run of 11 consecutive American wins. (Sept 24-27).
French Open: Continental Europe’s oldest national championship, dating from 1906, is once again staged on the Albatros Course at Le Golf National, near Paris. Defending champion is America’s Michael Kim. (Sept 24-27).
Our visit last month included two rounds at Golf de Chantilly, one of France’s most prestigious clubs.
It offers two superb layouts: Le Vineuil, a five-star championship course with a rich history, and Longères, an excellent four-star course that provides a strong and enjoyable test.
The wider Paris region offers plenty more. Courses such as Fontainebleau, Golf de Saint-Germain, and several other top-rated layouts make this area one of Europe’s most rewarding golf destinations, offering a mix of woodland, heathland, and parkland designs.
The Dutch: "It's no' just a game", as they say in Scotland, and that's certainly true at The Dutch. With 5-star services throughout, a lavishly comfortable Loch Lomond-inspired clubhouse, and a superbly designed and presented golf course, one could not ask for more from this top-end private club.
