Millbrook (Remarkables)
Millbrook Resort (Remarkables course): for many years this expansive luxury resort boasted an 18-hole course, comprising the Remarkables and Arrow nines. In 2010 the Coronet-nine was added. In 2014 the purchase of the neighbouring Dalgliesh Farm on its west flank, allowed Millbrook to extend the Coronet-nine into a full 18, with the resort now able to boast two 18-hole championship courses.
The Remarkables course at Millbrook now comprises the two original nines, Remarkables and Arrow. The good-width fairways are set in a relatively open environment, accompanied by many pot bunkers, and water hazards on at least seven of the holes. The superb greens are shaped and sized according to the demands of each hole, some large and slopey, others quite small.
Surrounded by high mountains and tree covered hills on all sides, Millbrook provides one of the very best resort experiences on the golfers' and non-golfers' trail in New Zealand. With outstanding scenery throughout, the course can be easy-going or tough and long - the choice is yours, depending on which tees you select. Resort real estate does come into play on a few holes, but the overall feel is generally that of natural mountain splendour.
Pick of the holes: amongst many wonderfully crafted golf holes, the Arrow-nine closes-out with a memorable par-3, played to a water-surrounded green in front of the Millhouse and Smithy's Smoke House.

The Milltown luxury resort occupies what was originally a working farm. The old mill, still with turning waterwheel, is one of several historic buildings on the resort - it is now the Millhouse Restaurant. The use of local schist stone for many of the constructions, and the scattering of old farm machinery here and there, reinforces the resort's historic feel. All the while, looking down on the resort, are the Remarkables mountain range (to the south) and Coronet Peak (to the west).
New Zealand's best courses (Australian Golf Digest, 2023/24):
Millbrook's Coronet course ranked 11th best in NZ; Remarkables course ranked 20th best.

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.
