Club de Golf de Barcelona: Formerly known as Masia Bach, now Club de Golf de Barcelona (Golf Club of Barcelona), this tight and hilly course can at times feel a bit contrived, although don't blame designer Jose Maria Olazabal for that. Creating a golf course in a seriously steep-sided and rugged ravine, which runs through the centre of this layout, must have consumed all Olazabal's design knowledge and playing experience.
With OB, steep slopes and dense vegetation lining many fairways, your straight-hitting A-game will come in handy around this often perilously tight layout. If the terrain is getting the better of you, just stand back for a moment and admire the often spectacular views, or inspect the real estate that circles around the course's higher elevations.
Although not one of the most "user-friendly" golf courses you'll play, this undulating and technically demanding layout still provides an exciting and scenic test for your game. The closing stretch from the par-4 15th shows you what might have been possible had the terrain been a little less testing for the designer.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance. Handicap required.
Golf carts available for hire and must remain on cart paths at all times.

Lying in the Penedes wine-making region, the chateau Masia Bach (visible from the course) is home to the well-known "Bach" label wines.

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.
