The Greenwood Golf & Resort is one of a group of courses located around 45 minutes from Pattaya which was originally designed by Peter Thomson, multiple British Open champion, and Michael Wolverine. As a result, the 27-hole course is reminiscent of many traditional parkland courses and they have made extensive use of local plants and flowers and extensive landscaping. The course is very scenic with plenty of tree-lined fairways set against a backdrop of rolling hills.
Greenwood is a strategic golf course and you need to plot your way carefully around the courses which covers a wide area with a combination of lightly wooded holes with few undulations and others which are flatter and more open.
Water hazards don’t feature much on the A Course but are more evident on several holes on the B Course, beginning with the challenging short par-4 first hole, which skirts around a water hazard. The greens are quite well protected by a combination of pot bunkers and clover-leaf shaped sand traps, but these are easier to escape than some of the clinging Bermuda grass in the semi-rough, which is ready to trap any wayward shots.
The B and C Courses also have plenty of pot bunkers as well as large areas of native grass which can be quite difficult to play from if you are not used to it. Overall the pot bunkers and mild undulations give a links course feeling to this mainly parkland setting, and the three courses will provide plenty of excitement for the better golfer and will be manageable for the higher handicappers.
The clubhouse overlooks courses A and B and although partially obscured by the mature trees you can enjoy a cold beer from the balcony.
Greenwood Golf & Resort is certainly great value for money, and you will not be disappointed as they maintain the courses reasonably well and the service from the caddies and in the clubhouse are perfectly adequate. A perfect golf courses for a relaxing day of golf in Pattaya.
