Where2Golf says:
Old Fold Manor Golf Club: On the highest point on the Great North Road between London and York, lies this easy-draining, gently-undulating parkland course. The excellent ground drainage comes courtesy of a "fold" of sand and gravel on which the course is based. - this also helps to explain the slightly heathland feel to parts of the course and the wonderful links-like bumps and hollows on the fairways. Most of the holes are pleasantly tree-lined, some tight, others giving the driver a chance to shine. The sting here is definitely in the tail, with two long par-4's to finish, and an old manor house moat to navigate before reaching the 18th green. A busy course that provides a pleasant golf outing in North London.

There are several documented "old" features here at Old Fold Manor. The hedgerow between the 1st tee and 2nd green is reputedly over 900 years old; part of the Lancastrian army marched up the 6th fairway on their way to the bloody Battle of Barnet - 500 years ago; the moat in front of the 18th green dates from the 13th century and was built by Thomas Frowke, a prosperous London merchant - remains of the manor house he built are nicely buried under what is now the pro-shop.

| Koksijde Golf ter Hille Golf Club: on what was previously open farmland, an enjoyable and challenging links-style layout has been crafted. Perhaps the inspiration for Koksijde's new course came from a renowned Harry Colt layout that existed in the 1920s just a couple of kilometres to the west. Read more... |
| The Duke Golf Club: represents the latest in a trio of private courses to arrive on the Dutch golfing scene. All prefixed by the definite article, The Dutch (2010, designer Colin Montgomerie) and The International (2012, Ian Woosnam) have now been joined by The Duke, which firmly targets a business clientele and the corporate golf market. Read more... |
Drentse Golfclub De Gelpenberg: as the oldest golf course in the Dutch province of Drenthe, De Gelpenberg offers a partly-wooded and partly-open heathland layout, guaranteed to test all facets of your game. It is arguably the best of the country's more northerly layouts, together with Lauswolt (50 km away to the north-west).
