Buckinghamshire Golf Club: Located on the western outskirts of Greater London, the Buckinghamshire is a relatively new and open parkland golf course owned by the Japanese Asahi Breweries.
The terrain here is relatively flat, and provides a pleasant natural environment for this fair but challenging layout. The rivers Colne and Misbourne make occasional forays into the course, ensuring that several water hazards come into play alongside fairways or in front of the well-paced greens.
With generally good-width fairways there is sufficient room to stay out of trouble, but the water hazards, which mainly come into play in the middle section of the course, as well as excellent bunkering thoughout, will constantly test and probe your course management skills.
John Jacobs has created a thoroughly absorbing golfing challenge with several memorable holes, while the green-keeping staff ensure the year-round quality of the playing conditions.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance. Handicap required.

Denham Court Mansion is now The Buckinghamshire's beautiful and historic clubhouse, a Grade II listed English manor house of predominantly eighteenth century origin (although part of the building is over 700 hundred years old).
Once the home to the Bowyer family, the house is situated in a wonderful riverside setting surrounded by landscaped gardens and 226 acres of wooded parkland. The house has been splendidly renovated in recent years by The Buckinghamshire's japanese owners.

Sony Open in Hawaii: played at Waialae Country Club near Honolulu, the Sony Open takes over the spotlight from The Sentry as the PGA Tour’s calendar-year opening event (Jan 15-18). The Sentry (not being played in 2026) was formerly known as the Tournament of Champions, with a field typically restricted to golfers who won a PGA Tour event in the previous calendar year.
Dubai Desert Classic: the DP World Tour’s first Rolex Series event of 2026, is contested for the 37th time (Jan 22-25). First won by Englishman Mark James in 1989, it now boasts a four-time winner, Rory McIlroy. Played on the Emirates Golf Club’s Majlis course, this once desert-surrounded course is the long-time flagship for Golf in Dubai.
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.
Join us at The Dutch from August 21–24 for the Festival of Golf, featuring the HotelPlanner Tour. Experience four days of top-tier sport, live music, incredible food, and unexpected surprises. Explore the grounds, connect with others, embrace new challenges, and dive into an unforgettable celebration. Click here to buy tickets.
