Gdansk Golf & Country Club was founded in 1990. It’s not only one of Poland’s elder statesmen but also one of Europe’s longest layouts, stretching to a massive 7,758 yards from the back tees.
Designed by British architect Jeremy Turner this is certainly Poland’s premier course and, in the words of the architect: “The course itself will be quite spectacular with the magnificent lake offering breathtaking possibilities for dramatic golf holes. What I have tried to do with this beautiful tract of land was to create a golf course that is really challenge to the good player. At the same time I wanted to do it very enjoyable for the higher handicapper.”
Undoubtedly, Postolowo Golf Club, as it is commonly known, is a brutal layout from the tips. Only venture back there if you are feeling masochistic! The sandy subsoil of the Postolowo area ensures near perfect terrain with a smattering of beech, oak and pine and sufficient water to provide some golfing thrills, it’s no surprise that Gdansk is the country’s No.1. | |

 |  | | Average Reviewers Score: |  | | On a recent visit to Poland in August I had pleasure in visiting Gdansk Golf & Country Club, I can honestly say that I found this course a fantastic test of golf even off the yellows and it was unfortunate that I had to play by myself. The course layout is interesting and very rewarding for good shots, I think you have a real gem with this course. It has three or four signature holes where most courses struggle for one, I cannot speak highly enough of my experience I had at Postolowo.
If any of you golf enthusiasts have not visited Gdansk it’s a beautiful city and the Golf & Country Club will live up to your full expectations. Steve Williams

| Response: | | | Alvin Brasseaux | 13 November 2008 | | This course is not ranked #1 in POland. There are two or three courses ranked higher (Toya, Rosa and Krakow). Postolowo is an excellent designed course, however the everyday conditions of the course can let it down. Definitely worth a visit though! | | | Sven Sternberg | 20 December 2008 | | The course will be constantly improved and having visited it recently I must say undoubtly Top 50 Europe's and No. 1 in Poland |
| | | really challenging , after this year rebuild it's even more challenging and from the back tees became the longest golf course in Europe , great conditions | | 24 March 2007

By comparison Bro Hof GC outside Stockholm Sweden measures 8057 yards from the back tees! |
