Description
Greenwood Golf Club – Pattaya / Chonburi
Nestled in the rolling countryside of Chonburi, just 45 minutes from Pattaya, Greenwood Golf Club offers a unique and relaxing golfing experience set against the beautiful backdrop of Thailand’s natural landscape.
Originally designed by Peter Thomson and Michael Wolveridge, the 27-hole layout reflects traditional British links influences, featuring rolling fairways, pot bunkers, natural grasses, and minimal water hazards.
The three distinct 9-hole layouts — A Course, B Course, and C Course — provide a variety of playing experiences, from open wind-swept fairways to tree-lined holes that demand shot-making precision.
Greenwood is a favorite for golfers seeking an affordable, peaceful, and picturesque round without the crowds often found closer to the city.
Course Layout & Design
Greenwood Golf Club consists of three 9-hole loops:
-
A Course:
A scenic layout with elevation changes, pot bunkers, and native grasses framing wide fairways. -
B Course:
A more open design with strategic bunkering and gentle doglegs. -
C Course:
A slightly more tree-lined course demanding tighter driving accuracy.
Each nine plays to a par-36.
The 18-hole combinations stretch between 6,800 to 7,100 yards from the back tees, offering a fair but challenging test for players of all skill levels.
The links-style inspiration is evident in the course's minimal use of water hazards and emphasis on shot placement and creative approach play.
Signature Holes Include:
-
A Course, Hole 5 (Par 4): A strategic dogleg left requiring a well-positioned tee shot to attack a small, elevated green.
-
B Course, Hole 9 (Par 5): A thrilling closing hole featuring bunkers strategically placed to test both tee shots and layups.
-
C Course, Hole 6 (Par 3): A visually stunning short hole with a well-bunkered green surrounded by natural rough and rolling terrain.
