Twenty-seven holes, three loops
Golfclub Princenbosch sits in Molenschot, in Noord-Brabant, and it has grown into a proper golfing home since the club was founded in 1991. The course is heathland in style, with 27 holes laid out as three nine-hole loops. Because you can mix the loops, you play nine, eighteen, or the full 27 — and each round feels a little different.
Golfers rate it warmly. On LeadingCourses it holds 8.2 out of 10 from 517 ratings, and on Hole19 it scores 4.5 out of 5 across 143 golfers. Those are the numbers of a course people come back to.
The layout is a challenging one, playing to a par of 70. That suits golfers who already have some control of the ball and enjoy thinking their way around. But Princenbosch is not only for them: there is a separate par-3 short course, a full golf academy, and a junior programme, so newer players and young golfers have a real place to grow here too.
What a visitor needs
Visitors are welcome, ideally with an introduction from a member, and you need a handicap card (GVB or equivalent) to play the main course. You can book a tee time online through the club website. A 9-hole green fee is €37.50, and a full round of 18 holes is €60.
Practice is a strong point. There is a covered, floodlit driving range, a putting green, a short-game area, and practice bunkers — everything you need to warm up or fix a weak spot before you tee off. A restaurant and terrace are waiting for you afterwards.

Marina's note for learners
A 27-hole layout with three loops is a great place to work on course management and shot selection — two skills that make every round more rewarding. I would encourage any student to start on the par-3 loop and the academy before stepping onto the longer loops; that steady build pays off.

A round that rewards a plan
Three loops and a par of 70 make Princenbosch a course of variety, where the same swing has to handle fresh angles all day long. That rewards a repeatable, controlled tee shot over raw distance, and calm course management once you reach the green side. This thinking part of golf is the part I most enjoy teaching.
