クラブハウス

The links style course is set on a gently rolling landscape. Deep bunkers and water hazards are strategically placed. The front 9 is fun to play as each hole varies. The back 9 is not bad but most holes are not impressive.

A slightly dogleg to the left, a difficult hole. The tee shot is over water with OB on the left, requiring both distance and accuracy.

7th　Par 4　372 yards (1)
A sharp dogleg to the left. A carry of 220-yard on your drive is needed to clear a lake. A huge bunker on the left corner that can’t be seen from the tee comes into play. The second shot is uphill. The double-tiered green is protected by bunkers on both sides.

An almost straight, long par 5. The tee shot is over a hazard. The tight fairway is guarded by trees on both sides, so precise tee and second shots are needed.
　
17th　 Par 3　174 yards

It takes 45 minutes from Pattaya by car. There is an adjacent golf course, called St. Andrews – 2000 under the same management sharing the clubhouse and a lodge and horse back riding around the course is available.
