Default can someone recomend me a posh golf club in lincolnshire please?

it's a bit of a cover for my dads real 70th birthday present, but i need to convince him that we're going all that way for something special!

i've had a look but nothing stands out yet, any of the scoobynet golfers have any ideas?

wow, that was quick

cheers mate, looks pretty good that, shame there's no pics of the course but that looks just about the job

as you're a local boy, don't suppose you have any feedback on a place called Manby Motorplex do you? that's the real reason for the trip up, my dad has wanted to do a juggernaught experience for as long as i can remember. be a shame to book it up then find out it's pants!!

To be honest, Manby is quite a way from me and I've not been to the Motorplex.

I'm sure you've had a look at their web site - http://www.manbymotorplex.com/.

nice one, cheers again

yep, been on the site and found what we're looking for. looks good on paper (guess all these things do though!) and they are few and far between, so looks like a done deal

nice looking course that, might actually try to build that into the trip after all!

Some really nice courses in Lincolnshire but its also a big place, where abouts are you looking? South Lincolnshire Id suggest Belton Woods but the course itself has gone really down hill in the last 2 years. Stoke rochford is a nice course though

yeah, i always do that, assume places are about 10 miles square and everyone knows everything that goes on in that area

the real venue is the manby motorplex and unless i book another day off work the golf course is just something i can print out to show him 'where he's going' could well be worth taking the week of though looking at some of those courses

How about this:

Leisure at QHotels - Golf at Forest Pines, Near Brigg, North Lincolnshire - Stunning 27 Hole Championship Golf Course, Designed by John Morgan, the PGA Senior Tour Player, offering over 10,000 yards of championship golf - QHotels is a Prestigious Hot

Nice restaurant/hotel too.

Four words

WOODHALL SPA, HOTCHKIN COURSE.


I've played hundereds of courses up and down this country. This one is my favorite (followed closely by Birkdale). It has everything a course should have and is a fantastic test of golf. I played the English amatuer championship there in 2000 and it was the best set up course i've ever seen. Simply stunning I've been there many times and it never fails to deliver!

It's also the home of the English Golf Union too
