An absolute recommendation
Reviewed March 22, 2024
We were warmly welcomed on the phone and the electricity was turned on for our late arrival on the evening before the round of golf. The very clean new sanitary block is open 24/7. When we got to the restaurant, the kitchen was actually already tidy, BUT we were still attentively pampered by both the service and the cooking - such personal commitment and identification with the club are absolutely extraordinary! The whole atmosphere in this club is extremely harmonious and hospitable. Oh yes - the round of golf was fun, the course, perfectly landscaped and well maintained, invites you to enjoy golfing and then after the round of golf you can have a spontaneous, pleasant chat with members on the terrace - that's how golfing (with a motorhome) simply makes you want to play here's to more - thank you!

Forest course with a lot of variety
Reviewed June 14, 2023
Played in June 2023 (HCP Boggygolf). The secretariat gave us a friendly welcome and briefed us. A small pro shop is also available there. We drove with a cart that was up to date (monitor with fairways). The place is beautifully embedded in the forest, has flat and tracks that go up and down, all in all very varied and not boring. Neuralgic spots are marked in red, which is good for the flow of the game. The course is well maintained and offers all HCP classes an exciting round. The gastronomy with terrace is very inviting, we liked it. There are even six charging points for charging e-cars in the parking lot. Everything is great here, we'd love to come back.

Underrated darling
Reviewed May 14, 2022
Our group of 8, accommodated in the manor house, was completely enthusiastic. A golf course integrated into nature, with wide, green, densely overgrown fairways. The greens were large and in pristine condition. The holes are varied, interesting and fair. Nothing for pure long hitters, but very good for every sporty ambitious golfer. What excited me the most is the sensational nature, there are several holes where you only see trees and nature in a 360 degree view apart from the golf course, no power lines, no windmills, no civilization.
There is a longer path between hole 11 and 12 of about 400 m, but the path is wide and without potholes, it leads through an idyllic wooded area.
By the way, the manor house directly on the golf course was great, equipment, ambience and comfort at a very high level. The secretariat was very friendly and gastronomy was simply delicious.
For me an absolute top place in Germany.

Great parkland course
Reviewed June 9, 2020
The Artland Golf Club shows a wonderful embedding in nature, it is a parkland course with beautiful undulated, slightly hilly fairways, with some holes also having a left character. Particularly noteworthy is the generous stock of trees and the natural penalty areas. On the square you can enjoy absolute peace in the middle of nature. The fairways are wide enough, overall the course is very spacious. There is hardly any rough, so the tracks are very fair to play and forgive some mistakes. The greens are slightly undulated, medium-fast and mostly run very well. Unfortunately, the drought of recent years has left its mark on this course, so that the fairways have dry spots. Apart from that, the fairways are well mowed and playable without the balls jumping unnecessarily. The numerous bunkers are also playable, a bit hard due to the rain of the last few days. Since the bunkers are often invisible from the tee, it is definitely worthwhile to study the tee boxes for the right strategy. According to the information from the secretariat, new birdie books are currently in the works. The discounts are a clear weakness, some are clearly uneven.
The driving range is spacious and very well maintained, the practice green has the same properties as the greens on the course.
Since I was here on a Monday, the restaurant was unfortunately closed, but the buildings, the spacious terrace and the newly designed restaurant made an absolutely inviting impression on me.
Overall, the course has all the prerequisites for a top system, but requires more irrigation and a little more maintenance on the tees.

Great place? Unfortunately not found!!!
Reviewed August 3, 2019
Played on 02.08.2019, Hcp 10.9, SpV 12, cloudy, with partner Hcp 16.1.
Have spoken to my pro before and he told me Artland would be the best place in the area, unfortunately I have to contradict him!
Have in recent weeks played Dütetal, Tecklenburger Land, Varus, Habichtswald and Ladbergen and Artland in this condition does not belong to the best.
The welcome in the secretariat was friendly and a briefing was without request, logo and bird book received. Greenfee with Albrecht guide 2 for 1 already class with 45 €.
The practice facilities were sufficiently available and especially the driving range was with very good, the strong undulating practice green I found class!
But then...
The track one begins as a par 3, pond almost dried out, ball jumped completely uncontrolled 2m next to the green, bottom hard.
Since we played the course for the first time we went the only way next to the green on and landed at the track 3. Shortly decided we went back, unfortunately came from Flight behind us even the stupid saying "You have not run to 3, or". Only then we saw the sign Next Tee, in Birdiebook is also no hint Next Tee, only from orbit two.
The haircuts were good, you should move often, on some you found no more stand because of the divots.
As for the fairways, you can not talk about golf anymore, max. 20% of the area has something to do with fairway, everything dried up, hard and barely play. Hardly a Divot beaten because the bat from the ground. A member told us that the fairways are not waters, too bad!
Many and partly invisible bunkers on almost every track, sand well, edges could be worked out better.
The greens except for two exceptions in very good condition, sometimes heavily undulating.
The club rooms and gastronomy make a great impression. Despite renovations the Gastro was willing to do everything for our physical well-being, at great prices.
Conclusion:
Two stars for the practice facilities, gastro and premises.
In this condition, I do not recommend the place to my golf buddies.
I do not know if I'll come back again!

Thanks but no
Reviewed August 15, 2018
What should one say. The place as such could stand out in comparison to the places in the region. If there were not the word "could" .. But more on that later. First, for the sake of fairness, the positive aspects of the course should be mentioned. The place is due to the existing sandy soil quickly after rain again playable. The tracks are mostly not strung together but separated by natural conditions such as hedges, trees, etc. From every tee the course is very fair to play. The course is varied, mostly parkland character and in part, left-hand drive character is generated, but revealed to knowledgeable golfers immediately as a pitiful attempt to image a left course.
Now to the word "could": The existing water hazards are completely empty due to the dryness, so that the smell of stale water accompanies the golfer on various tracks. What speaks against artificial refilling? Furthermore, as a golfer with global experience, I have never heard of tea boxes as an additional element of obstruction, as practiced here. No, seriously, the tea boxes are mostly so oblique and unkempt, that a straight stand, actually essential at the tea shot, is not guaranteed. In general, the critical question was allowed, whether the course care should not enjoy more attention. This also means that the greens should be faithful and the holes must not have stepped up. Furthermore, pitch marks should be repaired and the Marshall should focus on focusing on green fee groups (often from the neighboring neighboring country with the yellow license plates), who play loud and reckless on the course golf, or in the groups it remains The attempt of golfing, and the Marshall, the green fee groups should urgently remember the actual spirit of the game. It can not be that other golfers are disturbed by incompetence and rowdy and sometimes proletarian behavior. In general, the impression appears that the golf club or the club leadership, vehemently bet on green fee players, no matter how bad and unlabeled these groups behave. Recently, dogs are allowed on the course to attract even more green fee players. One or two golfer may welcome this decision, but most of the golfers enjoy the well-deserved rest on the golf course and do not want to be disturbed by dogs. In summary, the question arises whether the club is only aimed at undemanding green fee players, thereby losing sight of the core task of creating an oasis of peace and satisfaction for members. It is noticeable that the club is diverse in the field of marketing and that every means is right. So it seems more than strange that here in the reviews two completely positive statements were made on the same day (14 May 2016) and then also in the first sentence each have the exact same wording, including the same number of exclamation points. Cui bono..
Finally, it may be said that the place under other in-club conditions as mentioned above could be one of the best places in the region, but due to the word "could" and the associated inconvenience is a shadow of his own, as long as various internals of the club leadership does not change, I will not recommend the place to many golf friends, as I would make a recommendation of this club ridicule. And as we golfers know, golfing is so much more than just swinging the bat.

Dear "BirdieWool",
Thank you for the very detailed rating. We did not manage to get away well and that is a pity!
We are glad that you mentioned the positive aspects. If the drought - which Germany had been holding in the breath this year - had not occurred, there would certainly be much more to say on this point. The game of golf is a game in nature and so the quality is often a point with weather-related influences.
All other points are seriously discussed internally. Maybe you come out at the next game and I can tell you the results personally. Surely you are interested in the fact that not only a negative online rating about our club is on this page, but has led or led to criticism for improvement.
At this point, I would like to assure you that our club (celebrated this year's 30th anniversary), especially in the build-up of members is very committed and can show great success in the membership development. Of course, a healthy mix of green fee players and members is part of every system in Germany. You will certainly understand this.
Until next time at the Artland Golfclub eV

Pearl on the land

Ankum is a very underrated place. 3-4 weaker holes are over 14 high-quality holes. The place is always well maintained and also in the wet and in winter excellent playable. Very varied paths left a very good impression and are just fun. Recommended!

The Green Hoppers (12 men) have played yesterday this great place.
After it had rained extensively in the last few days we stood on a place of a would be quite wet, but the opposite was the case! The course is in great condition, unglaubluch, considering what time of year and had to swallow much rain of course!
If you could complain about something then the slow greens, but that gripe is at a high level! We would like to mention that the staff was exceptionally friendly at the club office and hospitality, this place is highly recommended.

Recommended golf course
Reviewed June 2, 2012
Hi, I have played twice on the plant in the past week. The golf course is very gepfegt and plays very well. Driving a large ranches with a beautiful putting green belong to this place. For the ball machine is either a 1 or 2 EU coin required (20/50 balls).
The entire golf course is laid out very widely. Between a few tracks a nature walk to the next tee is necessary. Many bunkers on the right to practice a load paths from it. Getting used were partly hilly tracks on which you can not see the green or the course of the fairway. On the second day I knew this and was aware of it at the game.
On many tracks a Fariwayholz the tee is more advisable. The driver is allowed to put more often.
On the plant even a toilet facility is available. Pond balls were offered on a train traveling to buy. Who has decimated his ball stock previously, can top up here...
The club house and the attached restaurant are very appealing. The food tasted very good to us. The club members and especially the staff were very helpful. The thatched roof buildings are very appealing. From the terrace you have a beautiful view on the web 1
When starting before 10 clock we needed reservations no start time.
Conclusion: I felt very good and certainly not the last time you played here.
