Cély Golf Country Club: Interest abounds, from the very Japenese feel of the clubhouse, to the well-groomed, compact and occasionally hilly course. There's plenty of variety in the layout, and golfers of all standards will not be disappointed by booking in for a round here at Cely.
Some attractive flower beds, and water features liven-up what might otherwise be a rather ordinary layout, and give the golfing environment a somewhat manicured feel - quite different than, say, a windswept links course!
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance. Maximum handicap: 30.
Players generally walk this course. Golf carts available for hire.

Lottie Woad: 21-year-old Woad burst onto the professional scene in July, with wins in the Women’s Irish Open (as an amateur) and three weeks later in the Women’s Scottish Open (as a professional). She nearly picked-up a major championship, placing third in The Evian in the same month.
Pádraig Harrington: the ever-likeable Irishman added the (British) Senior Open Championship title to his stellar array of tournament successes. His win came on Sunningdale’s spectacular Old Course. Harrington had already bagged the U.S. Senior Open title in June this year.
Marco Simone Golf & Country Club: With a clubhouse that might befit a Roman Emperor, and a golf course to match, you can be sure of a memorable outing at Rome's most talked about golf facility.
Jim Fazio's original layout was much changed to create a modern Ryder Cup course ... now one of the Eternal City's (and Italy's) most revered.
Here at Prince’s Golf Club you'll find 27 excellent holes of links golf.
