Crownwood
Crownwood Club arrived on the world golfing stage in 2025, a top-rated addition to Sweden's excellent golfing treasure chest. Courtesy of its design team of Henrik Stenson and Christian Lundin, here you will find the 18-hole championship Crown course (open to Crownwood members), complemented by a creatively imagined 11-hole layout, Henrik's Playground (open to the public).
Carved out of a natural coastal pine forest, with wetland and heathland also in the mix, both courses are set slightly back from the sea (Skälderviken). Whereas The Crown course is a world-class championship test of golf, stretching to almost 7,500 yards from the tips, Henrik's Playground offers an imaginatively crafted and less formal golf experience. The "Playground" is designed as a gateway to grow the game and inspire the next generation.
The Crown course possesses a generally open feel. Its wide rolling fairways are frequently flanked by large sandy waste areas. With modest elevation changes, the main challenges of The Crown are to be found in and around the imaginatively crafted greens and green surrounds. Here (and alongside many fairways) you'll find copious areas of sand, often trimmed with deep grassy rough ... eye-catching, but well worth avoiding if you can.
Limited access: The Crown course is a private course generally playable only by Crownwood members and their invited guests. Hendrik's Playground is accessible to non-Crownwood members.
Private club: outside visitors can play the 11-hole Henrik's Playground course. Guests may only play the 18-hole Crown course if hosted by a member.
Must book in advance.
Players generally walk this course. Golf carts available for hire.

Crownwood Club is the vision of professional golfer Henrik Stenson, golf entrepreneur and investor Arild Karlsen and golf course architect Christian Lundin. Membership of the club is by invitation only, and is extended to those who reflect the spirit of Crownwood, namely "an appreciation for quality, authenticity, and the pursuit of a life well-lived."
The Crown course:
Europe's 16th 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.
