Gendersteyn
BurgGolf Gendersteyn: Things changed quite dramatically here at Gendersteyn in 2007, when seven new holes replaced most of the original back-nine. Things changed again when the course was expanded to its current 27-hole layout.
Separated by a small stream (the Gender), the Yellow-Red course at Gendersteyn combines a more tree-lined opening 9-hole loop (Yellow), with the more modern and open Red-nine. The latter contains a plethora of sandy waste areas, bunkers and water hazards. On all three nines you'll need to navigate round some severely doglegging holes: the par-4 9th (Yellow), par-4 3rd (Red) and par-4 3rd (Blue).
Unfortunately much of the Yellow-Blue course runs close to the A67 motorway and there is little escape from the drone of traffic. The newer holes of the Red-nine occupy land further away from the road and are pleasantly quieter, although tall electricity pylons do put in an appearance on both Yellow and Red.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance. Handicap required.
