Golf here since 1934
The Amsterdamse Golf Club sits at Bauduinlaan 35 on the western edge of Amsterdam, and it has been a golf club since 1934 — this is mature, settled parkland golf. From the club’s own website, it is an 18-hole course playing to a par of 72 over 4,945 metres, with the trees and fairways grown in over nearly a century. It is an NGF-affiliated members’ club, and it carries a challenging rating.
Golfers rate it warmly. On LeadingCourses it scores 8.3 out of 10 from 158 ratings, and on Hole19 it earns a full 5 out of 5 (checked 11 October 2026). Numbers like those tell you the course is well cared for and that the people who play it keep coming back.
A demanding parkland rewards experience, placement and patience more than raw power. So it suits golfers who already hold a handicap and enjoy a proper test of their game. If your golf is still growing, you are welcome here too — a few lessons first will make a round on ground like this far more fun.
Playing here as a guest
Amsterdamse Golf Club is a members’ club, so a visitor plays by introduction and a valid handicap — a Dutch GVB card or an international equivalent — is asked for before you go out. Visitors are welcome, tee times can be booked online through the club’s own website, and the club is open year-round. The green fee is around €60 for 9 holes and €100 for 18.
For practice there is plenty: a covered driving range, a putting green, a short-game area and practice bunkers, plus a full golf academy on site. A pro shop, restaurant and terrace round off the day. Juniors are welcome, with a junior programme for young players.

Marina's note for learners
A course like this rewards preparation over power — I build lessons around a repeatable swing and short-game control, so the holes that bite back become the ones you look forward to.

What this parkland asks
A grown-in parkland like this tests where you put the ball, not how far you hit it. The holes bite back when a swing drifts, so the round rewards a repeatable, controlled game and a steady short game. That balance of placement and touch is the part of golf I most enjoy teaching — build it first, and a demanding course becomes the one you look forward to.

Can Marina Romanik give me a lesson at Amsterdamse Golf Club?
Marina teaches at Chi Chi Golf in Utrecht and Golfschool Hoenderdaal in Driebergen, not at Amsterdamse Golf Club. Book a lesson with her there to build the steady, controlled game that a demanding parkland like this rewards.
