03  /  The Experience

A day at The Dutch, as a professional plays it.

Eighteen holes at one of the Netherlands' most private clubs, playing alongside a touring professional. You can't book a tee time here. You come as Nurtai's guest.

The Dutch

Scottish DNA, in the heart of the Netherlands.

The Dutch is an inland links: firm, rolling fairways, deep bunkers, dune-like mounds of rough and famously quick greens. Colin Montgomerie designed it to play the way golf is played in Scotland.

The Scottish feel carries into the clubhouse, from the locker room with your name on it to the fireside after the round. Only members and their invited guests can play.

The day

Not a lesson. A round with a pro.

This isn't a swing lesson or a putting clinic. You see how a touring professional prepares, thinks his way around a course and decides on every shot, then you try it yourself.

  1. Morning

    01Arrival & preparation

    Warm up the way a professional does: range routine, short game, putting and a plan for the course.

  2. On the course

    0218 holes, around four hours

    Course management, shot selection, reading greens, handling pressure and what each shot should feel like. Tips on your swing along the way, in real conditions.

  3. After the round

    03Locker room & spa

    A dedicated locker room with your name on the door, showers, the sauna and the club's spa amenities to recover after the round.
