Kristianstads
Kristianstads Golfklubb & Destination is home to 36-holes of top-quality golf, split between the highly-rated East (Östra) course and the also challenging 18-hole West (Västra) course. As one of Sweden's top layouts, the East course has played host to the Ladies European Tour, European Ladies' Amateur Championship, and many national and regional events.
On both the higher-rated East course and longer West course, the holes play across essentially flat terrain. There's a pleasantly open linksy feel most of the time, with some tree-lined stretches also in the mix. Both layouts have benefitted from recent redesigns by Pierre Fulke and Adam Mednickson. The sandy sub-soil generally allows play on a year-round basis.
On the West course, a clockwise outer-loop (the front-nine) wraps around the anticlockwise inner-loop (back-nine). On the East, the first 11 holes encircle the more tree-lined closing section, where water ditches also occasionally threaten. Attractive bunkering features on both layouts, more prominently on the East course.
Stay&Play at Kristianstads: onsite accommodation available, see Where2Stay section below.

Kristianstads golf is located just outside the town of Åhus, a popular summer destination with Swedish holidaymakers. The town of Kristianstad lies 18 km to the northwest of the golf club.
The golf club was founded in 1924 with a nine-hole course located at Rinkaby Shooting Range, halfway between Kristianstad and Åhus. In 1938, the club moved with its 38 members to Åhus and the foundation for today's nine-hole East course was laid.
East course:
Continental Europe's 67th best course (Golf World, 2025).

Presidents Cup: Geoff Ogilvy’s International Team take on Brandt Snedeker’s USA Team at the revered Medinah Country Club, near Chicago. The Internationals are trying to halt a run of 11 consecutive American wins. (Sept 24-27).
French Open: Continental Europe’s oldest national championship, dating from 1906, is once again staged on the Albatros Course at Le Golf National, near Paris. Defending champion is America’s Michael Kim. (Sept 24-27).
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.
