Ramton Golf

Everyone is welcome to play on the golf course. There is no requirement for a golf card and you do not need to be a member of a club.

The green is excitingly designed with undulating shapes. The artificial grass makes the ball course stable and predictable. If you plan the ball course well and execute the stroke with the right speed, you will put the ball straight into the hole.

The course is an excellent opportunity to practice your short shots before trying your hand at the big courses.

Great to combine with a stay in our cabins and other activities on site.
