The Golf Club at North Hampton: refurbished in 2012, this relatively open Arnold Palmer design should not disappoint. Woven into its fabric are many attractive features and several excellent holes.
A good-width linksy par-4 opens proceedings, while the long snaking par-5 2nd (at 625 yards from the tips) quickly signals this layout will be no push-over. Water poses a threat on several holes, flanking some of the generally good-width landing areas, especially on the back-nine loop.
At the par-3 7th you'll need a tee-to-green carry over a corner of a small lake to find the safety of the green. That theme is replicated on the two back-nine par-3s.
Although part of a housing development, the homes do not intrude on the golf course, which mixes open linksy stretches with others that are more tree-lined. Here is a layout that maintains a pleasantly natural feel as the holes glide past small lakes and woodland. Certainly one to include on your play list if you are golfing north of Jacksonville in Florida.
Visitors welcome on weekdays; more restricted on weekends.
Must book in advance.

The Masters: The 88th Masters Tournament at Augusta National sees LIV golfer Jon Rahm defend his title against the world’s best. Pressing hard will be world No.1 and 2022 champion Scottie Scheffler and world No.2 Rory McIlroy (April 11-14).
Chevron Championship: the women’s major championship season gets underway for the second year at its new Carlton Woods home outside Houston, Texas. World No.2 Lilia Vu defends (April 18-21).
Nelly Korda: records a perfect start to 2024 with four wins out of her last four appearances on the LPGA Tour, a feat last achieved by Lorena Ochoa in 2008. Korda's win at the T-Mobile Match Play brought up her 12th LPGA Tour victory.
Scottie Scheffler: narrowly missed out on matching Nelly Korda’s three-in-three, when he placed second at the Houston Open. This followed back-to-back wins at the Arnold Palmer Invitational and The Players. Like Korda, he remains comfortably ahead in the official world golf rankings.
Marco Simone Golf & Country Club: With a clubhouse that might befit a Roman Emperor, and a golf course to match, you can be sure of a memorable outing at Rome's most talked about golf facility.
Jim Fazio's original layout was much changed to create a modern Ryder Cup course ... now one of the Eternal City's (and Italy's) most revered.
