Bastad (Gamla)
Båstad Golfklubb (Gamla/Old course): If there is an old windmill on your right at the 1st tee, then your in the right place to play the Gamla Banan (Old Course) of Bastad (pronounced Bo'stad).
This very pleasant, open parkland golf course was established in 1930, but in fact feels much more recent, with a mainly open aspect, good bunkering and several multi-tiered and undulating greens.
The only water you'll encounter is in the distant Kattegat (the sea separating Sweden and Denmark), there is no water on the golf course, and with lightish rough you should be able to have a field day with the big timber and score quite well (the wind may alter that plan however).
Combined with the very good Nya Banan (New course) Bastad can be thoroughly recommended for a 36-hole golf outing.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance (visitors can book 5 days ahead of day of play). Maximum handicap: per player 36; total per tee-time 100.
Soft spikes only. Players generally walk this course.

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.
