Lindrick
Lindrick Golf Club: Known during its first forty years as the Sheffield & District Golf Club (hence the S&D on the tee-boxes), Lindrick has enjoyed an illustrious past. Former host to both the Ryder Cup and Curtis Cup matches, it may not see the return of these prestigious events, but that should not stop any visiting golfer from sampling Lindrick's moorland charms and wonderful golfing challenges.
The constantly undulating terrain ensures that only the par-3s are played over reasonably flattish ground. Most other holes take you gently uphill and down dale, while providing several dog-legging par-4s and a few blind shots into the bargain. The sunken green at the par-5 4th hole demands one of the trickier blind approaches.
The course's unforgiving rough and at times rugged texture does not detract from enjoying this wonderful layout and its many excellent heathland-moorland views.
Visitors welcome Mon-Thur. Limited tee-times available on Fri-Sun (on application to Pro Shop).
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.
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.
