Bellevue Palace Bern
Bern
Set in the heart of Switzerland’s capital, Bellevue Palace Bern is one of the country’s most prestigious five-star hotels and the official guesthouse of the Swiss government. Overlooking the River Aare and the Bernese Alps, the hotel combines grand historic character with classic luxury, making it a refined base for a Swiss golf and city break.
The hotel offers 126 rooms and suites, with elegant interiors, modern amenities and many rooms enjoying views across the Alps or Bern’s UNESCO-listed Old Town. Guests can enjoy Brasserie VUE, the Bellevue Bar, Le Lobby, a fitness area and sauna, with the city’s shops, restaurants and cultural landmarks all within easy walking distance.
For golfers, Bellevue Palace works well as a premium base for exploring courses around Bern, the Bernese Oberland and wider Swiss golf regions. It is ideal for those who want to combine golf with culture, dining and a proper grand-hotel experience rather than a resort-style stay.

About The Area
Cromvoirt is a peaceful base for a golf holiday in North Brabant, combining one of the Netherlands’ leading championship courses with woodland, cycling routes and easy access to the historic city of ’s-Hertogenbosch. Eindhoven Airport is approximately 32 kilometres away by road, making the village a convenient option for a short European golf break from the UK.
The main attraction is Bernardus Golf, an 18-hole heathland-style championship course designed by Kyle Phillips, whose portfolio also includes Kingsbarns, The Grove and Yas Links. Sculpted bunkers, water hazards, heather and large, carefully contoured greens create a strategic test where golfers must think about positioning rather than simply hitting for distance.
Bernardus offers visiting golfers a complete day-club experience, with extensive practice facilities alongside dining, a gym, saunas and a heated outdoor swimming pool. Guests can also stay at Bernardus Lodge, allowing groups to combine their golf, accommodation and meals in one convenient location.
The course has hosted the Dutch Open and will welcome the Solheim Cup from 11–13 September 2026, when Europe and the United States meet in the Netherlands for the first time in the competition’s history.
Away from golf, Cromvoirt sits beside De Loonse en Drunense Duinen National Park, a landscape of woodland, heath and open sand dunes that is excellent for walking and cycling.
Nearby ’s-Hertogenbosch adds cobbled streets, cafés, museums and historic architecture. We recommend visiting Saint John’s Cathedral and taking a boat trip through the Binnendieze waterways beneath the medieval city centre.
Cromvoirt is particularly well suited to a premium golf break, combining tournament-quality golf with excellent facilities, Brabant hospitality and an attractive countryside setting.
