Golf in North Brabant’s Heath and Woodland

Golf in North Brabant

North Brabant lies in the south of the Netherlands, bordering Belgium and extending from the western cities around Breda to eastern districts near Eindhoven and the border with Limburg. Its golf landscape is shaped by sandy soils, former heath, conifer woodland and relatively flat agricultural country. Courses may feel sheltered among trees or more exposed across open ground, making wind a useful consideration. Bases in larger cities offer a choice of dining, accommodation and transport, while smaller towns can suit quieter overnight stays. Driving is often the simplest way to link golf with the province’s dispersed landscapes, though Eindhoven, Tilburg, Breda and ’s-Hertogenbosch are connected by regular rail services. The terrain is generally level, but sandy ground can drain quickly after rain and woodland routes may play differently from open inland layouts. Spring through early autumn usually offers the most dependable window for a trip; summer days are long, while autumn can bring wetter conditions and fallen leaves. Book tee times and accommodation ahead around weekends, school holidays and major events, particularly when using a city as a base for travel.
