Ep105: Barwon Heads, an English links on the Bellarine Peninsula
<p>A few little snippets to discuss before we focus on the headline act for this episode. Scott and Matt discuss the imminent opening of some new holes at Newcastle Golf Club, with the work by Scott Champion and Bob Harrison looking really good.</p><p>Lovedale Farm comes in for some discussion – specifically the ongoing issue of who is actually at the helm from a design perspective. <a href="https://www.planetgolf.com/news/darius-oliver-no-longer-designing-lovedale-farm-golf-course" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer">Read the Planet Golf article</a> addressing this. </p><p>And most importantly – we discuss Barwon Heads, in all its old school glory. Situated in a gorgeous seaside village, the course is close to the beach and enjoys wonderful terrain. An enjoyable mix of short and long holes, the course is so reminiscent of so much high calibre UK golf. The closest thing to an East Coast English or Scottish links in the southern hemisphere.</p><p>As promised in the episode –<a href="https://www.barwonheads.golf/cms/the-clubhouse/#accommodation" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferer"> the link to enquire about stay and play packages</a> in the glorious and recently refurbished Barwon Heads clubhouse.</p><p>Australian Golf Passport is supported by:</p><p><a href="https://www.currentsgolf.com/">Currents Golf</a> golf booking software</p><p><a href="https://angusandgracegogolfing.com/">Angus and Grace Go Golfing</a> apparel</p><p><a href="https://seedgolf.com.au/">Seed Golf</a> balls</p><p>Images related to this episode can be found on our <a href="https://www.instagram.com/australiangolfpassport/">Instagram</a>.</p><p>Podcast intro music - Nbhd Nick / Stop Playing With Me-Instrumental / courtesy of www.epidemicsound.com</p>
