239. Royal Belfast 🇬🇧

Rating: 8️⃣.0️⃣

Last stop on this trip to Belfast and what a ripper of a clubhouse! After a quick fry up we took on the course in a 3 man scramble. Don’t let the score fool you, it wasn’t just me. Royal Belfast is set on a hill overlooking the Belfast Lough and offers a testing challenge without being overly penalising. Many of the holes offer a generous fairway but there are some that really do test like the par 3 11th which is a completely blind tee shot. Really fun course that isn’t going to completely beat you up.

Score: 67 (-3)

238. Malone 🇬🇧

Location: Belfast

Rating: 8️⃣.3️⃣

My favourite of the 4 courses I played on this trip. Maybe it was the back to back birdies to start that do the trip but from the moment you arrive it has an aurora about it. Stunning clubhouse, impeccable conditioning and a really fun design moving through the rolling hills of South Belfast. Not much more to add than an awesome golf destination!

237. Galgorm Castle 🇬🇧

Location: Ballymena, Northern Ireland

Rating: 8️⃣.0️⃣

After being washed out at Galgorm Castle a few years ago I was stoked to be able to go back and this time @jsmiller41 and I had the best weather! Really lovely resort and course, very well maintained, some pretty tricky and challenging holes with not a lot of room for error. The course is very flat though so easily walkable.

236. Holywood 🇬🇧

Location: Belfast

Rating: 7️⃣.8️⃣

If you know you know… home of RM! I envisioned Holywood being a relatively flat parkland course but it is anything but. Two totally different loops, both hugely undulating. The first is relatively open, working its way up and down the hill with a few quirky par 3’s. The back 9 gets even better, weaving through parts of thicker bush with more individual holes and gets a fair amount trickier. I wasn’t expecting much but it’s a really fun course and an absolute steal to play Rory’s home course for only £35!

235. Sheringham 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Location: east coast of Norfolk

Rating: 8️⃣.3️⃣

Last stop on this edition of the Highland Invitational and after being in the lead with 2 rounds to go I ended 1 point off last 😂 nice to finish off with the shanks!

The course though is great, a traditional out and back in routing as opposed to Royal Cromer we played a few days before which is just up the road. The two complement each other perfectly and would highly recommend playing both! On a windy day it would be brutal but we were lucky with a light drizzle and some clouds. We’d never thought of Norfolk as a golfing destination but it has a few gems and doesn’t have the huge price tag that comes with the top 100 name tag.

234. Barnham Broom (Valley) 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Location: Norwich

Rating: 7️⃣.8️⃣

Fresh off my lowest round, a few pints and watching the Aussies choke against the Lions we took on the Valley course. A much tougher, incredibly tight course which requires much more thought than brute force. We played the first 6 holes in torrential rain which didn’t help things either. Some crazy tee shots trying to cut through swathes of trees. Tough course, complete opposite to the Valley course we’d played in the morning.

233. Barnham Broom (Hill) 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Location: Norwich

Rating: 7️⃣.8️⃣

Barnham Broom is a pretty nice resort with 2 respectable and very different 18 hole courses. The hill course isn’t their signature one but it’s still pretty good with plenty of variety, quite a few changes in elevation and a bunch of interesting holes. Shot my lowest round here, very pleased with that!

Location: east coast of Norfolk

Rating: 8️⃣.3️⃣

My favourite course of the trip, beautiful views, loads of dramatic changes in elevation, lush fairways, some really interesting holes and a great stretch of finishing holes. Everything you want in a course and still had a great time despite playing like ass.

231. Hunstanton 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Location: north coast of Norfolk

Rating: 8️⃣.1️⃣

Day 4 of our trip and for some of the group, their favourite course we played. With howling winds and a bit of rain the conditions were brutal! Hunstanton is a really fun course, loads of unique holes, nothing too drastic just a genuinely good links course that really challenges every part of your game. We could’ve done with more info on the blind par 3 but everyone was incredibly hospitable!

230. Royal Norwich 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Rating: 8️⃣.3️⃣

An old club on a new course. Royal Norwich moved to their new premises in 2019 and not that I know the old course but I’m sure their members would be delighted with this new one. A short drive from the city, nestled in the woods it is a tough test at almost 5,900 meters with significant bunkering, sloping fairways and large multi-tiered greens with some really enticing holes like the back to back drivable par 4s on the back 9. Coupled with a modern clubhouse and excellent practice facilities it is a really good option if you’re in the Norfolk area.

229. Royal West Norfolk 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Location: right along the Norfolk coast

Rating: 7️⃣.8️⃣

Pretty disappointed with this one. Was meant to be the best course on our trip and the second stop of the Highland Invitational but was in really average condition. No doubt it is a fun design, a couple of very interesting holes but I’ve seen better greens and fairways on local municipal courses.

228. Thetford 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Location: Thetford Forest

Rating: 7️⃣.8️⃣

First stop on this year’s Highland Invitational with a challenging round in Thetford. A very pretty woodland course with fairways lined with tall pines trees. Really cool design, pretty lengthy and limited room for error and could be a real hidden gem if it was better looked after. The fairways were in pretty rough condition.

227. Amsterdamse 🇳🇱

Rating: 8️⃣.0️⃣

Situated just to the north of the city and nestled in between Houtrak and Spaarnwoude, I’d say this course is the best quality you’ll get in and around the city. Great conditioning and very good facilities it is probably the nicest course in the area but comes at a price I’m not sure is great value.

226. De Pan 🇳🇱

Location: Utrecht

Rating: 8️⃣.3️⃣

Back to the Netherlands and with the weather looking the way it was I thought I’d call up De Pan and tick off another one of the top Dutch courses, this one actually rated in the top 100 in the world by some sites.

It is a beautiful heathland course, with a wonderful routing. You barely leave the last green before you’re on the next tee box. It looks tricky but under those isn’t thick rough but pine cones and trimmed grass do doesn’t play too difficult.

Not convinced it is a top 100 course in the world, the high green fee and the average condition is quite disappointing but it’s absolutely worth the trip.

225. Kuilsrivier 🇿🇦

Location: eastern suburbs of Cape Town

Rating: 7️⃣.3️⃣

Last stop in Cape Town for this stint and the last 18 hole course for me to tick off in the city. I won’t be rushing back though, decent enough but next to a main road and with power lines running throughout it was a bit of an eye sore. Good enough local members club but nothing to get excited about.

224. Hlalanathi 🇿🇦

Location: Drakensberg Mountains

Rating: 6️⃣.8️⃣

Growing up in Durban, we used to come to Hlalanathi every December for a camping holiday and this was our first trip back for 17 years. Memories of my childhood came flooding back! The course is exactly as how I remembered it with a brutal uphill 500 meter par 5 to finish and mountain views all round. Bit beaten up by the heavy rains at this time of year but still thoroughly enjoyable to go back!

The course is exactly as how I remembered it with a brutal uphill 500 meter par 5 to finish and mountain views all round. Bit beaten up by the heavy rains at this time of year but still thoroughly enjoyable to go back!

223. Monks Cowl 🇿🇦

Location: Drakensberg Mountains

Rating: 6️⃣.7️⃣

A quirky 9 hole course sat right next door to Champagne Sports, we actually ended up knocking a ball back across the fence for another group. Interestingly the name Monks Cowl comes from the clouds passing over the neighbouring mountains that resemble a loose hood of a monks robe.

222. Champagne Sports 🇿🇦

Location: Drakensberg Mountains

Rating: 8️⃣.2️⃣

We used to go to the Drakensberg Mountains every December growing up and after leaving to the UK, this was our first time back in almost 20 years and it’s a hidden gem. It’s a majestic area and under appreciated with everything South Africa has to offer. Champagne Sports Resort has a beautiful parkland course with stunning backdrops and at a time of year with daily thunderstorms it was in wonderful condition!

221. Langebaan (Mashie) 🇿🇦

Location: Langebaan, up the west coast from Cape Town

Rating: 7️⃣.5️⃣

First new course for 2025 and up the road from Cape Town for a stag do in Langebaan. Sadly no time for a the proper 18 hole course but a quip whip around on the mashie course, 18 par 3’s and some lengthy ones at that so definitely not a gimmick. A few beers and a bit of hungover fun with the lads.

220. Benton Woods (Woods)

Location: Melton Mowbray

Rating: 7️⃣.0️⃣

Last round for 2024 and got to play it with my dad on a freezing December’s day. Belton Woods is a resort with 2 courses in the Lincolnshire countryside. We played the woods course which was like a swamp at this time of year. Not the prettiest or most interesting design but fun to play with the old man nonetheless.

219. Coxmoor 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Location: Nottingham

Rating: 8️⃣.2️⃣

Back up to the Midlands for Christmas and first stop at Coxmoor on a frosty, wintery afternoon with a high of 5 degrees. Gloves on and off between shots was a first for me but totally worth it. Coxmoor is a ripper, stunning heathland course, really fun design, really condition for December and a great deal for £50 with a hot meal

218. Woldingham 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Location: South London

Rating: 7️⃣.4️⃣

Back to England for Christmas and a quick stop in London for some catch ups and obviously to sneak a round in. Difficult to judge a course at this time of the year with muddy surroundings and bare trees but we were pleasantly surprised. One of the most wide open courses I’ve played, plenty areas to miss but still tricky in those conditions. Not the most amazing design but still a fun outing.

217. Bruntsfield Links 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Location: Edinburgh

Rating: 8️⃣.1️⃣

Fresh off the back of a Springboks win and a late one at the Three Sisters we headed to Bruntsfield Links on another gorgeous wintery morning. Another lovely course in the heart of Edinburgh, very different layout to Mortonhall we’d played a few days earlier and equally as enjoying but maybe less dramatic in its changes in elevation. Another must play in the Scottish capital.

Rating: 7️⃣.9️⃣

Quick trip to Edinburgh for a tasty encounter between the Springboks and the Scots and obviously the clubs came with. Before the game a short trip from the centre of Edinburgh to Mortonhall. A beautiful manicured parkland/heathland course. Really fun round and perfect conditions for November in Scotland. £50 a round at this time of the year is a steal!

215. Dubai Creek 🇦🇪

Rating: 8️⃣.3️⃣

What would any normal person do when they have a 7 hour layover in Dubai? Contact all the courses and look for a tee time of course. Landed at 7am, made it to Dubai Creek for an 8:15 shotgun start and managed to sneak in 18. Dubai Creek is set in the heart of the city and runs alongside the river in what is a lovely design in a bustling metropolis with some of the best manicured greens and fairways but sadly lacks the tranquility of a course in the countryside.

214. River Club 🇿🇦

Location: in the heart of Jo’burg

Rating: 8️⃣.4️⃣

My last stop on an epic week in Johannesburg with plenty more courses to come and experience. The River Club is a private members course frequented by the rich and famous of South Africa, set in the heart of the city. Despite this it still has a tranquility to it and an awesome course to play. Wonderfully lush fairways, pure greens, beautifully crafted water features and even flower arrangements around the tee boxes make it so pleasing on the eye. A stunning parkland course and very much able to play for foreigners visiting the city.

Location: north of Jo’burg

Rating: 8️⃣.5️⃣

Up next was a trip to Blair Atholl, the former home of Gary Player and designed by the man himself. The longest course in South Africa and the 3rd in the world off the back tees. This one is a beaut and a brute. How’s that Blair Mile! A tough, challenging course but thoroughly enjoyable with one of the hardest holes I’ve played in the stroke index 1 and also one of the best halfway houses I’ve seen.

Rating: 7️⃣.3️⃣

Day 4 in Jo’burg and with a Saturday round I was always going to struggle to find a round but luckily got a slot at Kyalami in the afternoon playing with 3 beginners. A long round. With water shortages in Jo’burg they basically were only looking after the greens hence the extremely dry looking fairways but it wasn’t too bad, the drives just went that extra yard further. Not gonna complain about that.

Location: north of Johannesburg

Rating: 8️⃣.5️⃣

Steyn City is a place like nowhere I’ve been before. A concept of the late Douw Steyn, he built a city of his own just to the north of Johannesburg with every amenity a rich person could want. Golf course, equestrian centre and even a helipad. A secure, walled city for the affluent.

Built in 2015, the course is very new but a wonderful design. They did amazingly well to bed the course into the natural contours of the land providing huge changes in elevation and plenty of twists and turns and in immaculate condition to boot.

After playing the East course in the morning and a bite to eat at the clubhouse, I set out onto the the West course and it was equally as good as the East course which is their championship one. In exactly the same condition, it is a fairly similar design but maybe a has a few more scenic holes without the backdrop of some office blocks that the East course has. Absolutely must play both courses if you’re visiting Royal Johannesburg.

209. Royal Johannesburg (West) 🇿🇦

Day 2 in Jo’burg and had both the Royal Jo’burg courses lined up. Luckily my bag had arrived by this point. A really great club, huge open club house, great community atmosphere and 2 really fun and challenging courses. The west is the flagship of the two but I thought they were equally as good as each other.

208. Glendower 🇿🇦

Location: Johannesburg

Rating: 7️⃣.9️⃣

Next stop south Africa for a short stint before Christmas last year and had the opportunity to stop in Jo’burg for the week and tick off some courses. There’s bloody hundreds in the city so will have to come back! Shout out to @fly.ethiopian for leaving my bag in Frankfurt. Useless customer service as well but that’s what you get when you fly budget.

Glendower was lovely, very nice start to my week with a well manicured parkland course. Value for money in this part of the world is second to none.

207. The National Brussels 🇧🇪

Location: eastern side of Brussels

Rating: 8️⃣.3️⃣

Had to make a short trip to Brussels and naturally looked for a course to play on the way home. Built in 2017 the course is still bedding into its surroundings and with new apartments being built around the 10th hole it’s still a little way from being the finished article but the course itself is a lovely design, weaving through rolling mounds with an inland links type feel. Will definitely come back when all the construction is complete!

206. Koninklijke Haagsche 🇳🇱

Location: The Hague

Rating: 8️⃣.5️⃣

Been wanting to play this course for a while and on a warm late summers afternoon I thought fuck it let’s give them a call.

What. A. Course. Arguably the best in the Netherlands. Nestled in the Dunes along the Dutch coastline, this is a gem of a design. For a country that is notoriously flat, this course is anything but! Sloping fairways, raised tees, scenic views and a stunning clubhouse to top it off! Add this to your bucket list!

205. Verdura (East) 🇮🇹

Location: south coast of Sicily

Rating: 8️⃣.1️⃣

The Verdura Resort is a stunning location for a golf course, set right on the Mediterranean Sea. The resort has 2 courses but sadly we only had time for one. Due to the droughts in Sicily they struggle for water supply hence the dried out fairways but still a lovely course to play, unreal practice facilities and one of the best views you will get at a clubhouse.

204. Il Picciolo Etna 🇮🇹

Location: Sicily

Rating: 7️⃣.9️⃣

My first time playing golf in Italy and a stunning course to start. Set in the foothills of Mount Etna we were blessed with a lovely, calm day. Il Picciolo was a lovely parkland course, not overly long in length but tight requiring thought over sheer power. Beautiful views, friendly staff, a quiet course all made for a really fun round of golf!

203. Aldeburgh 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Location: near Ipswich

Rating: 8️⃣.1️⃣

Was passing through Suffolk for a wedding and called up Aldeburgh for a round and how pleased was I that I did. A very traditional golf club where long socks are still worn when wearing shorts and a quirky par 68 with a net and a putting green as the practice facilities but a course full of intrigue and challenge. I loved the wooden sleepers as the walls for the bunkers and some excellent, tricky holes.

Location: north of Amsterdam

Rating: 7️⃣.1️⃣

My first time playing with @damianharris.golf and my first ever hole in one and maybe the last 😂 8th hole, 140 meter par 3, drop kicked an 8 iron and the ball trickled into the cup! Tough conditions out there with a howling wind and just managing to finish before the light way completely gone! Thanks to Damian for hosting and many more rounds to come.

The big 200, well and truly addicted and long may it continue! The Lakes course at the Vale Resort is a less tricky, more tree lined and a quirky, fun course. Much shorter than its neighbour and a less stern challenge.

Nestled in the Vale of Glamorgan is this lovely 36 hole resort with 2 very nice courses! The National course is the signature of the two and is a challenge at 7,400 yards. A real nice mix of different holes, set in tranquility, lined with trees with a fair share of water.

Location: 5 mins from Royal Porthcrawl

Rating: 8️⃣.5️⃣

This part of Wales is really blessed with some awesome golf courses and Pyle & Kenfig is another one of those. A front 9 weaving through wispy grass with beautifully manicured fairways leads onto a back 9, nestled in the dunes, with a stretch of holes from 11-16 that are some of the best you will play. Highly highly recommend!

197. Southerndown 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Location: between Swansea & Cardiff

Rating: 8️⃣.4️⃣

Southerndown sits on top of the cliffs on the south coast of Wales and offers a pretty unique golfing experience. The course is not far off a large sheep pen, who roam the land and keep the fairways in check. Holes run through narrow channels in between bushes where you might even find a sheep hiding. Around the southern perimeter you have stunning views of the Welsh coastline. A tough test but one worth visiting and the friendliest of members invited us for a beer and a chat after.

Location: 30 mins south east of Swansea

Rating: 8️⃣.6️⃣

A course well established in the worlds top 100 and one of the best manicured I have played but wasn’t overawed by it to be honest. It was incredibly difficult, narrow fairways lined by thick rough, blind shots with not much of a landing area, didn’t really make for that enjoyable an experience. Golf is hard enough as it is, at least make it playable and I thought I was hitting the ball well on the day 😂

Wrapping up the Celtic Manor experience with their signature Ryder Cup course. 2nd best of the 3 courses in my opinion. Bit of a flat start with the first 8 or 9 holes settled in the valley but once you get onto the back 9 it really gets interesting and what a stunning view and hole to finish on!

Location: Newport

Rating: 8️⃣.2️⃣

After my morning 18 and a quick pint I headed out onto the Roman Roads course at Celtic Manor. Not quite as memorable as the Montgomery course but still a pleasant experience. Bit wider and longer. Sadly had to walk off after 12 as the waiting times were horrendous, there were 3 groups on 1 tee box at one point so called it a day.

After a short trip from Burnham & Berrow I travelled up to Newport for a couple of days at Celtic Manor. You’d recognise the name from the 2010 Ryder Cup. It is a resort with 3 very good courses. The Montgomery Course was my favourite of the 3, despite not being their marquee one it was the most fun and had the most interesting and varying holes.

Score: 78 (+9)
Lost ball count: 3

192. Burnham & Berrow (Championship) 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Location: just outside Bristol

Rating: 8️⃣.6️⃣

After playing the 9 hole Channel course in the morning @golfing_alman and I settled into some lunch before heading out onto the Championship course on a breezy afternoon. Tough front 9 with the wind blowing across the course from the left but as we turned it played more into my cut/slice. Lovely course, really fun design with loads of unique and tough holes and in awesome condition. Thanks again to Alex for hosting me for the day!!

191. Burnham & Berrow (Channel) 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿

Location: just outside Bristol

Rating: 8️⃣.2️⃣

Onto the next trip and a quick stop near Bristol en route to Wales. Thanks to @golfing_alman for hosting me for the day! Burnham & Berrow have a championship 18 and then the Channel course which is just a 9 hole loop but a cracking one at that. Many of the holes wouldn’t be out of place on the championship course.

190. Carnoustie (Buddon) 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Rating: 8️⃣.1️⃣

Last stop on this Scotland trip, well done to the old man on doing 4 rounds in 4 days despite much whinging he wouldn’t be able to. The 3rd course of Carnoustie with more of a parkland vibe to it, nice change up from the links courses throughout the week and blessed with some unreal weather. Scotland isn’t as bad as people think!
