“The game has such a hold on golfers because they compete not only against an opponent, but also against the course, against par, and most surely- against themselves.” Arnold Palmer, American professional golfer

We have found the golf clubs where it’s a joy to play against the course, the rest is up to the golfer!

Let’s take a little golf tour of Sweden, passing by our favourite clubs, each one worth a visit by any true golf-enthousiast.

 

Bro Hof Slott Golf Club

Named after the castle on the grounds which serves as regal clubhouse, just north-west of Stockholm resides the Bro Hof Slott Golf Club on the shores of Lake Mälaren. With its scenic setting, impeccable large and undulating courses and, well-heeled clientele and outstanding service, this golf club is one of the most elegant in Sweden and known as one of the best in Europe. When you drive in past the gate up to the castle, you will be enchanted the elegance and beauty, and when you play either the Stadium Course or the Castle Course you will appreciate the perfectly designed and maintained tee boxes, fairways and greens. Magical!

Hills Golf & Sports Club

Moving north along the west-coast we arrive at the last, but certainly not the least on our list; the Hills Golf & Sports Club, situated just south of Gothenburg. This top class championship course, which has been described as challenging, is relatively new as it was opened in 2005. One of the few golf courses in Sweden that is based on golf cart use to get full enjoyment out of its immense greens and broad rolling fairways. The Hills Clubhouse is sits on a hill overlooking the golf course and there is a restaurant with a nice terrace that offers similar views. Take your time for a lengthy and satisfying visit to Hills Golf & Sports Club.
