Golf lessons in Driebergen, where you’ll feel at home

Hello! I’m Marina Romanik , a PGA-qualified golf coach with over a decade of experience turning beginners into confident players and helping experienced golfers lower their handicap. My base at Golfschool Hoenderdaal in Driebergen has everything you need to improve quickly and enjoy the game more than ever — and you’ll always get a warm welcome here.

Coaching for every golfer

Golfschool Hoenderdaal is staffed by PGA professionals, so every lesson is built on solid fundamentals and modern teaching tech. You can choose private 30- or 60-minute sessions for fast, focused progress, fun group clinics, a relaxed “baanpermissie & handicap” path for new players, or a corporate golf day with your team. Lessons are flexible and open to non-members, so great coaching stays within reach for everyone in the Utrecht region.

Practice that shows your progress

The floodlit driving range gives you flat, uphill and downhill mats plus plenty of targets, so even a little rain or an early evening never stops a good session. With the TrackMan Range radar you can see your carry distance, launch angle and spin on your phone — a simple, motivating way to watch yourself get better, ball after ball.

The best place for lessons on the golf course

This is what makes Hoenderdaal special for me: we do not only practise on mats. The range has a large grass tee area, and the 9-hole course — eight par-3s and one par-4 — is right next to it. So a lesson moves from the range onto the course itself: real lies, real greens, a real score. For learning to play golf, not just hit balls, this is the best place I know near Utrecht — and you can start here on grass from your very first weeks.

“Came for a half an hour lesson from Marina, because I’ve not been playing for some time. She quickly corrected the grip, posture and swing. And now I feel ready for my game on Sunday!”

“A covered range with a real grass tee area, a 9-hole course of eight par-3s and one par-4, and PGA coaching that moves onto the course itself — for me the best place near Utrecht to learn golf on grass. My 5-star home.”

Good to know

Do I need a handicap or GVB to play here?

No handicap is needed. The driving range and practice areas are open to everyone. For the 9-hole course you need a baanpermissie (course permit) — and that is exactly what my lessons give you: the golf school guarantees it.

Can I book a tee time online?

Yes. You can book your time online directly through the Golfschool Hoenderdaal website at svwgolf.nl — quick and easy, no phone call needed.

Is it a good course for beginners?

It is one of the best in the Utrecht region for beginners. The 9-hole par-3 layout keeps every hole short and manageable, while the covered driving range, putting green, short-game area, and practice bunkers give you everything you need to build your game from scratch.

Is there a junior program?

Yes. Golfschool Hoenderdaal has a dedicated junior program that welcomes young players and teaches the game with patience and plenty of fun. Children of all ages and skill levels are very much at home here.

Does Marina Romanik give lessons here?

Yes — Golfschool Hoenderdaal is one of Marina's home teaching locations. She offers lessons for all ages and levels in Dutch, English, Ukrainian, and Russian. You can book a lesson directly online or contact Marina by WhatsApp.

Is there a covered driving range?

Yes. The driving range at Hoenderdaal is fully covered, so you can practise your swing and enjoy a lesson whatever the Dutch weather decides to do.
