Springfield Royal Country Club

Springfield Royal Country Club – Championship Golf Designed by Jack Nicklaus in Hua Hin

Located just off the Hua Hin bypass road, Springfield Royal Country Club offers a traditional yet exciting golf experience designed by the legendary Jack Nicklaus. This 27-hole championship golf course features a par 72/36 layout stretching 7,043 and 3,501 yards, making it a top choice for golfers seeking a cost-effective alternative to Pineapple Valley and Black Mountain in the Hua Hin region.

The course is designed to challenge golfers of all skill levels, with five tee options per hole and a layout that demands precision and strategy. Water hazards and well-placed bunkers come into play throughout, surrounded by mature trees and rolling hillocks that test accuracy. The back nine is particularly challenging, featuring hazards that punish errant shots, especially as fatigue sets in.

Springfield Royal’s signature hole, the finishing par-5 18th, is an island green reachable in two shots by long hitters, demanding both nerve and skill for that perfect closing shot. The course also includes an additional nine holes (Course C) designed by award-winning architect Lee Schmidt, opened in 2005, which provides an even greater challenge contrasting with the original Nicklaus design.

The clubhouse sits in an elevated position, offering impressive views and an interior marked by polished marble and granite, reflecting a grand and opulent atmosphere. Although the clubhouse shows signs of aging, it remains a comfortable and welcoming space. Experienced, well-trained caddies further enhance the golfing experience at Springfield Royal.
