Review by Marina Romanik
Hi, I am Marina Romanik, a PGA golf instructor with a simple belief: golf should feel light, friendly and full of small wins. I love watching a new player hit one clean shot and break into a smile. That moment is why I teach. Whether you are picking up a club for the first time or polishing a swing you already enjoy, I am here to make the game click for you.
Golfclub Swalmen, in the green Limburg countryside near Reuver and Beesel, is the kind of place that makes golf feel welcoming from the very first shot. It is an 18-hole pitch & putt course — short, playful and easy to walk — which makes it a wonderful spot to learn the parts of the game that really lower your scores: the approach shots and the putts.
Because the holes are short, you swing more often and worry less. There is no pressure to hit huge drives. Instead you focus on touch, feel and aim — exactly the skills that beginners build fastest and that experienced players love to sharpen. The easygoing layout means you can play a full round without feeling tired, then talk it over with friends afterwards.
The facilities back up that friendly feeling. There is a driving range to warm up and groove your swing, a short-game area to practise the chips and pitches you will use on every hole, and a comfortable restaurant where you can relax when you are done. If you arrive without gear, club rental is available, so it is simple to just turn up and play. The course also welcomes groups, which makes it a fun choice for a day out with family, friends or colleagues.
Best for: beginners taking their first swings, juniors and families looking for an easy, happy introduction to golf, and improving players who want to master the scoring shots in a calm, low-stress setting. If you have ever felt that “real” golf looks too long or too serious, a pitch & putt course like this is the perfect, gentle way in.

A short course rewards good technique more than raw power, and that is great news — because technique is exactly what a few lessons can give you. A little help with your grip, your aim and your putting stroke turns a fun afternoon into a string of confident shots and lower scores.
I teach at Chi Chi Golf in Utrecht and at Golfschool Hoenderdaal in Driebergen, and I welcome every age and level — children, adults, beginners and players who already love the game. I speak Dutch, English, Ukrainian and Russian, so you can learn in the language that feels most natural to you. Wherever you choose to play, a few friendly lessons will make every round more enjoyable.

Marina teaches at Chi Chi Golf in Utrecht and Golfschool Hoenderdaal in Driebergen, not at Golfclub Swalmen itself. A few lessons with her before or after your visit will sharpen exactly the short-game skills a pitch & putt course rewards most — book online, WhatsApp, or call her directly.
