Welcome to The Dutch

The Dutch is an International Championship Standard Golf Course

designed by 2010 European Tour Order of Merit Winner Colin
Montgomerie in conjunction with Ross McMurray from European Golf
Design. Colin’s ‘Risk and Reward’ golfing philosophy is fully integrated
into the design of the golf course. An ‘Inland Links’ course with unique
shaping and features, making The Dutch a true challenge for golfers of
all levels, from amateur to tour professional.

The construction quality of The Dutch has set a new benchmark for golf
course construction in The Netherlands. This quality is reflected in the
maintenance of the golf course, facilities service and hospitality
throughout The Dutch.
C

Since the official opening in May 2011 The Dutch has received many
M
compliments from the golfing world. The Dutch is rated as one of the
Y
best new courses in Europe and is regarded as a very unique project
having been developed by golf professionals from the Dutch-based golf
CM company “Made in Scotland” who are well known for their passion and
love for the game.
MY

CY The Made in Scotland professionals have been developing their

business goals and ideas for the past ten years. The original concept
was to create a forum for the elite of the Dutch business community, in
CMY

K which golf would bring together business executives in an environment

conducive to starting, developing and improving business and social
relationships. Central to this vision was the creation of a world-class
golf course.

We wish you a memorable day at The Dutch

The Management Team & Staff.
