El Bosque, Esp.
El Bosque Golf & Country Club: Less than 30 minutes from the centre of Valencia, the Robert Trent Jones Sr design at El Bosque has always been a popular and well-rated golf course. The undulating, tree-lined and open parkland layout will not disappoint, with many attractive features and several excellent holes to enjoy.
This essentially American style layout contains many excellently crafted holes, with plenty of stylish bunkering and water occasionally in play. As one of the world's most revered golf architects, it's no surprise that Trent Jones has skilfully used the undulating terrain to create several nicely elevated tee-shots, as well as uphill approaches to well-defended greens.
Housing flanks a few holes, although never too closely, and only on those holes which form part of the course perimeter. Definitely worth including on your play list if you are in the area.
Visitors welcome on weekdays; no outside visitors on weekends.
Must book in advance. Maximum handicap: men 28; women 36.
Players generally walk this course. Golf carts available for hire.

Spain's 48th best course (Golf World, 2025).
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.
