Cumberwell Park
Cumberwell Park Golf Club offers four loops of championship golf on the Red, Yellow, Blue and Orange nines, as well as a Par-3 course (with its island-green 8th). The rolling landscape with superb views to hills near and far, is predominantly open parkland - very much so on the Red and Orange courses, slightly more wooded on the Yellow.
The Blue course has the tightest tee shots and most water to think about, while the Orange exudes a distinctly linksy moorland feel. The Blue and Orange nines are newer than the original Red and Yellow courses, but in in no sense inferior to their older sinlings.
All the courses have USGA specification greens, which means hard, fast and true - oh, and big as well. The courses are heavily played and take quite a pounding, but good greenkeeping keeps everything in pretty good shape to ensure you have an enjoyable here at Cumberwell Park, whichever combination you are assigned to play.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance. Handicap required.

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.
