Florence Links
Florence Golf Links (formerly called Sandpines Golf Links) is a championship layout that ranks with some of the best in Oregon. At just over 7,000 yards from the tips, the course is a good test for golfers of all levels.
Both nines incorporate the rugged beauty that is characteristic of the Central Oregon Coast's duneland canvas. The front-nine takes you through a forest of towering pines and clear blue lakes reminiscent. The inward-nine brings you back to the soul of the game with it's traditional links-style setting amidst rolling dunes.
This links-style course provides a wonderful test for your all-round game, with many attractive, skilfully crafted and challenging holes to enjoy.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance.

Florence Links is laid out just to the north of the small Oregon city of Florence, in an area characterised by coastal forest and large areas of open shifting sand dunes. The city lies at the mouth of the Siuslaw River, in a region previously inhabitated by the Siuslaw tribe of Native Americans. Popular local attractions include sea lion caves and dune buggy tours.

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.
