Hotel with 9L

Nice, quiet and stylish hotel with its own 9 hole course. Family atmosphere. Very nice welcome, friendly staff, rooms overlooking the golf course. Hotel also with its own botanical garden.

Who has time for a quick round, then yes.

We have the PAR 68 9-hole course played in June because we had a house in the neighborhood. If you have the pro shop behind the hotel in the basement found again, then you can also play as a non-hotel guest for the lowest 18 BP here. The lady in the office was very friendly. It is a parkland course in a small area and you can hear some alarm calls due to not always accurate punches. It is necessary to overcome some elevation changes and the bunkers to go out of the way (no water hazards). The condition was fine. However, a little annoyed the green keeper who is always there mowing the fairway where you just wanted to play. It all seems verry british and a little dusty. Some older men were on the road course, but one can without previously booked start time (preferably afternoon) play. The signal is certainly the 9-hole (Par 3) down to the hotel.

Always worth a round

Was 5 days in the hotel, highly recommend it: friendly, helpful, kind, knowledgeable and well. Evening with jacket and tie: British makes, fun, very relaxed crowd - very, very pleasant atmosphere.
The golf course, designed by James Braid (St. Andrews) is sexy and through dle position on a slope is not as easy as it first impressions seem to be, among the trees of Parkland course it gets really exciting: As often helps only the putter.
The 9./18. Hole (par 3) makes with its plateau-like small green, on a volcano cone a mental problem: Guests like sitting in the amphitheater in the top spots, with a view of green... There are also sometimes cheers...
