Reviewed January 25, 2022
I’m a member here - full disclosure. I looked at a number of different courses when moving to Bonn and chose Miel because the combination of course and atmosphere was the best I found. I haven’t regretted it. Hugely friendly and welcoming staff and membership - to be honest, that’s quite different from my experience at a number of other local courses. Great restaurant. Lots of tournaments throughout the year and a strong junior golf programme for the kids. It’s smart without being snobby, which I love. Nobody is going to have an emotional breakdown if you’re in jeans, hoodie or trainers around the restaurant :-) The parkland course is always in great condition and the front nine, especially, has plenty of challenge. If I’m being picky I’d love to see a little more contour on the green complexes, a bit more technology at the otherwise excellent range (Trackman etc) and you could argue it’s a touch on the expensive side relative some nearby competitors but I genuinely don’t think you’ll mind that after a day here :-)

The entire ensemble of Schloss Miel is convincing! The 18-hole golf course with complete irrigation of the facility leaves nothing to be desired! In the last 10 years, the course has developed from an average golf course into one of the top roaches in the Rhineland metropolitan region!
The club manager and shareholder Thelen family and his team know their trade!
The ambience of the castle inside and outside is worth seeing! The Graf Belderbusch restaurant, as well as the two terraces directly at the restaurant and at the back of the castle with a view towards the 18th hole, leave nothing to be desired! The menu is seasonal, with classics and convinces with honest prices!
In addition to golf, there is a lot on offer here! The castle is home to a registry office, the regional cycle paths between Rheinbach, Bornheim and Bonn also let cyclists linger and lead directly past the castle!
The parking lot has its own E gas stations! Last but not least, Fam Thelen has a close partnership with the regional economy of the Cologne metropolitan region, so that many networks like to meet and the owner can also be networked if necessary!
In terms of golf, all wishes are fulfilled, with small touches such as ball pyramids on the range and, for me, the special feast for the eyes with well-kept bunkers with a specially applied stamp in the coat of arms of Miel Castle!
A day of vacation without having to leave the Rhineland!

I always love to play there. Every year new investments are made in the facility, from new paths to irrigation. Top!
The restaurant is also very good and thanks to the newly built terrace behind the castle, meals can also be consumed on site at these times. (50 meters from the restaurant) I will definitely be back!

Winter "safari" at GC Schloss Miel
Reviewed December 2, 2019
This place - very nice to play in the summer - is currently in a very bad condition! We played there in mid-November: fairways punched and heavily sanded, some covered with puddles, spotty, partly foliage-covered, scratched greens and huge boar damage. After the round: No running water, no compressed air, so we had to pack the dirty Tolleys in the car! Of course you do not expect a perfect investment in this season, but the price of 70, - € is - against a background - very cautious!

Dear Sir / Madam "golf critical",
Thank you for taking the time to write a review for our golf course.
In fact, our golf course was hit by a large pack of wild boar during the night of 11th to 12th November 2019. The first time in almost 10 years. Fortunately, only 99% of the damage affected the rough areas. Fairways, greens and tees are thankfully spared. In the meantime, all damages have been completely remedied and we hope that they will no longer be visible from Q2 2020 onwards. In fact, to make things worse, even on a DAY, the air compressor and the water at the cleaning station failed. So you were really unlucky that day.
We use the winter time in the Golf-Club Schloss Miel to carry out larger care measures such as sanding and aeration of the fairways has been our business for years - for this reason we offer the reduced winter green fee.
If you have paid 70 € - this speaks for our winter green fee standard. As a member of a regional club you would have paid with us the reduced winter green fee - this is € 50 for 18 holes.
I find it regrettable that, despite your positive experiences in the summer, you feel that after only one negative experience (wild boar, technical defects, necessary care measures), you give such a negative 1-star rating for our system on this platform.
If you had occurred under your real name, we would have personally addressed you and if necessary. can offer a coupon. Unfortunately, they are hiding behind the anonymity of the Internet and are thus taking this opportunity.
Yours sincerely,
Alexander Thelen

4.5 stars
Reviewed June 5, 2018
The place is beautiful and well maintained, no question. The fairways sometimes a little wide, but with doglegs, bunkers and water hazards then always challenging and alternating. And with the castle as a clubhouse, that's an eye-catcher. Only the service, there is probably still some catching up to do.
1. We had asked extra beforehand, if we can eat there on Mondays after golfing. The answer was "yes". Maybe we should have been told that the selection is limited to 3 types of tarte flambée (at least on 04.06.2018).
2. We had 1 Tokenmarke (for 3 EUR) left at the end and wanted to swap them back. "No, do not go, the boss does not allow," was the answer. And when asked if you can not even ask the boss, the answer came, "No, he's in the round now." Even on the last question, if you, if you buy a souvenir (pitch mark) (for about 10.00 EUR), then maybe not the Tokenmarke so that can charge, we reaped a clear: "No, is not synonymous".

Well-kept castle golf
Reviewed May 22, 2018
Last played on 21.5.2018. The flat 18-hole course (Carts not necessary) is located just outside the state border of NRW to Rhineland Palatinate directly on the A61 (in the background partly easy to hear) near Bonn. As the club name suggests, the fairways are adjacent to a castle and the secretariat is housed in the beautiful castle. A nice restaurant with adjoining beer garden is accommodated separately in an outbuilding. The fairways and tees are often very narrow or narrowed by tall trees, the rough like high and the bunker well placed. Various water hazards to the island green on the 18 come into play. Many tracks have right dams on the right and left, so that the balls sometimes run with luck back to the Faiways, if you miss them. The level of difficulty and thus the default is relatively high and high HC should be rather difficult. Personally, I do not like hole 2 (PAR 3), which is separated by high safety fences, right next to the driving range. I've been playing the course about once or twice a year for many years, and the condition was the best I've ever seen there, and compared to many other places, everything was in great shape. It reminds a bit of some of the facilities of the Association of Leading Clubs in Germany. The fairways like patterned carpets, the greens without blemish, hard, fast and faithful. The bunkers with light sand loosely prepared. Small downside was that the greenkeepers, on my admittedly very early turn from 6:30 pm, have joined me on 16 out of 18 holes, albeit extremely considerate. Start times can be booked online via the homepage. The game mode is, if you do not want to play just at peak times, usually loose. The staff in the secretariat are very friendly. The green fee prices are appropriate for golfers with "r" in their pass and there are sunset rates in the afternoon. Unfortunately, for golfers without the "r" in the card, which does not necessarily promote golf, a hefty surcharge to the green fee. A pity, otherwise I would come more often. Nevertheless, I can recommend a round in Schloss Miel to anyone. With a little luck you can also get a private castle tour.

Every year better
Reviewed May 9, 2018
We have been coming to the Golf Club Schloss Miel for several years as part of our traditional Rhineland Golf Tour. Every time we notice with pleasure that the system has been improved again a bit. This year, among other things, a new path was paved and several bunkers were renovated. The course has developed great - it's always fun to play here. The course offers an outstanding condition that does not have to hide behind any place in Germany and is the measure of all things in the greater Bonn area. Thumbs up!

Schloss Miel is a beautiful and very well kept in stand baroque castle. This is surrounded by a well-maintained complex. Both the golf course is beautiful and well maintained and the castle park, and the pond of the castle surrounds mostly.
We ate there both the celebration of a church, as well as a civil ceremony may experience and were of the loving refurbishment of the reception in the forecourt of the castle as well as the pleasant establishment in the castle over excited. Staff at the Palace are very helpful.
The restaurant food picture book right on the lock is very good and the host and the staff are very nice and ensure that you can end the day after a game of golf perfectly.

The golf course is in excellent condition and makes it easy to play.
Lovely, too, when the evening turns a round and is accompanied by some rabbits, ducks and pheasants. For me personally, the rest is pure, although you may get a little listen to the motorway.
Also worth mentioning are the pro's of the golf club that can negotiate with heart and passion much for me.
For me a clear 5 * recommendation.

What interests me as a golfer, is next to the friendly staff, especially the space, so its shaping, the lurking challenges Care states and the cleverness of its architecture. The parkland courses that can easily turn into a cultivated boredom: Railways too wide, Optics exchangeable, fairways as runways. That this country is another way to demonstrate outstanding space in Miel. developed and refined over the years, steadily, he really offers match conditions, which can now keep up with really good parkland systems in England or Ireland (z. B. Royal Winchester GC, Remedy Oak GC, Rushmore GC, County Tipperary Country Club, Thurles GC, et al.). As there is in position Schloss Miel precision Drives, Finesse popular with the iron and accuracy in positioning, exactly the elements to which is particularly pressing in golf. Especially in spring and summer this game virtues come here in the focus, if the rough is high and can lead to unpleasant-unplanned turnovers. Maybe stir some of my very incomprehensible negative topics These kinds of bitter experience?
In short: Full marks and unconditional recommendation!

The clear number 1 in Bonn area
Reviewed May 2, 2016
For about 5 years I like to play 2-3 rounds per year in the Golf Club Schloss Miel. At each visit, I note that the system is constantly changing and in some cases considerably. This year, bunkers were renovated and (felt) replanted 300 trees - just great to see how things develop positively / change.
The condition was during my last visit in April 2016 already impressive - especially for the season!
Perfect fairways, fast greens and loyal, clean bunker edges and ball washer filled on each track with fresh water - no complaints.
The gastronomy - and I agree with the positive reviews Totally - is outstanding. Not only for a golf club - as a stand-alone restaurant an absolute recommendation.
In this respect I can not understand how people "meyerlein".
How can you ask about other reviews (unqualified) mock and even 0.0 objectively contribute to the theme?
Another sad example of Internet culture - cowardly and anonymous hide behind a pseudonym and decry a truly world-class golf course with a bad review.
Shame on you "meyerlein".

Reviewed May 2, 2016
5 years ago I played the course for the first time. Even then I would have been at each portal out best. Exciting is that the place no longer is now comparable. Every year embellishments to each year the quality of the fairways and greens is better.
If one well worth the little things places as golfers - such as paths, edges of the hole, cleanliness sanitation, quality signs and hole descriptions - then you are right in Miel.
I find the place (currently HCP13) as demanding as some tracks are only accessible with a precise drive to the 2nd shot and in some places the rough quite comes into play. Have with HCP 54 5 years ago but already had enjoyed, players are (with a few exceptions that are everywhere) very friendly and above all, one, fun at the golf game.
Miel is known for extremely well-organized many tournaments that I continue to visit, without being a member. The Grrenfee + Event costs are worthwhile in any case. Highlight 2 years ago, the AEG tournament and the annual Bocks-Security tournament.
For winter golfer is said then if other clubs have closed a long time, you can play wonderfully even in Miel.
Gastro also highly recommended, here is right for once agree the quality of Golf Club and Restaurant.
Hope I could give you a good impression of sporty greetings

The restaurant is right next to the Castle Miel and the associated Golf Club. Here is usually something going on.
The WM have completely looked there, even though we come from Cologne.
But it was a really great atmosphere there in the beer garden, this beautifully grilled and a cold beer. Perfect.
Even so, in summer is a lot going on and you can and should ride from Bonn by bike back.
Personally, I am a self-confessed Fleischesserin and when a really good at, then is the meat.
Piglet, fillet of beef, incredible delicacies from the smooker or now starts again the goose season. I can only recommend.
Well, there are also side dishes that interest me not so, but maybe you, risotto is almost perfect, fries with truffle flavor or Südkartoffeln, everyone will find something!
There is a wide selection of wines and the service is friendly.
The restaurant does not try to be hip or schischi, it is a perfectly normal restaurant with a very friendly restaurateur couple. I always feel very well and can also come in jeans.
Just try it on weekends.

For several years, I always come back for 1-2 laps to Schloss Miel. And I enjoy it! A great place in a Top-care condition with numerous game technical challenges.
But the ambience with the castle and the great Baroque Park leave all thoughts of an office, the hustle and bustle forgotten. And what could be better than after the game to eat a Klenigkeit and enjoy a nice glass of beer?
With the "Rhenish way of life" - and an associated looseness - the staff I'll be wonderfully clear. I feel warmly welcomed and welcome... gan unpretentious.
And often in the coming season again! I am excited about what is built and improved a new over the winter.
