Hexham Golf Club

3-PLUS: Good course - several memorable features; worthy of 3½ stars.

Est. 1892

Hexham Golf Club is home to a tree-lined parkland course, laid out alongside the famous River Tyne, although set back from it by a few rows of trees. Measuring just under 6,300 yards from the tips, Hexham always lays down a thorough test for your game. The par-5 1st and short par-4 18th provide challenging bookends to a round where accuracy rather than length from the tee is always at a premium.

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.
