Go past the intersection with the Eastern Outer Ring Road (route 9). In Minburi stay on the 304, which becomes Suwinthawong Road. After approx 7 km entrance to golf is on your left after km marker 44.
Windsor Park & Golf Club (C & D course): Formerly known as Panya Park, Windsor Park can now boast two 18-hole championship courses with the A, B and C nines being joined by the much newer and contrasting D-course.
The C-course (Garden) has many similarities with the tree-lined, parkland style of the A & B courses (Lagoon & Palm), which feature gently contoured fairways, impressive bunkering and several boulder-edged water hazards. The treble row of electricity pylons that runs through much of the C-nine, does little however to enhance its scenic or garden-style appeal.
Having returned to the clubhouse via the excellent par-5 9th on the C, you will board a shuttle to be whisked off to the D-nine, which starts and finishes about 1 km away, on the other side of a canal. The terrain here is considerably more open and undulating, with a good-sized lake in play on the opening holes. The pencil thin, sloping fairway of the short par-4 2nd invites a "go for it" drive at the green, even though water lies in wait for anything hit left, and OB for anything hit right.
The par-5 3rd is also on the tightish side of comfortable, wrapped around the same lake and dog-legging sharply around the lake into an elevated green. To conclude this testing lakeside threesome, the long par-3 4th, played over water to a heavily bunkered green, requires many players to reach for their drivers on the tee.
The D-course is quite unlike anything else you'll play around Bangkok - undulating, open and (at the moment) relatively treeless, the recently planted palms are still a long way from maturity.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance.
Non-metal spike facility. Caddies used by all players.

Like so many clubs in and around Bangkok, the original 27-holes of Windsor Park were built on land that was originally flat, marshy rice fields. Windsor Park was formerly known as Panya Park, a member of the Panya Group of golf courses.
The excellent clubhouse caters to a wide variety of tastes, with Thai, Japanese, Chinese and Western cuisines all available.

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.
