Marriott Hollins Hall Golf Club

mark — Tue, 20 Sep 2011 20:40:21 +0000

This 18 hole championship golf course hosted PGA EuroPro Tour events from 2001 to 2003, and provides a great test for golfers of all abilities. Hollins Hall is a challenging course, the best defence being the huge undulating greens and well positioned bunkering. The signature hole 14th called ‘viaduct’ is a tricky par four providing a masterpiece in tactical design with the 19th century viaduct providing a fantastic backdrop. From an elevated tee, golfers must negotiate 4 fairway bunkers, a dog-leg and two water hazards before being tested on the two tier green. The greens and tees are built to USGA standards providing good drainage and quality surfaces – Hollins Hall guarantees no temporary surfaces and a buggy path around the course making it a fantastic choice all year round! 18 holes. Par 71. 6671 yards.
