About East Sussex National Golf Resort and Spa Holiday Apartment
East Sussex National boasts two championship courses thatandnbsp;were designed by Robert E. Cuppone of Jack Nicklaus's course architectswith major championship golf in mind. The resortandnbsp;has hostedandnbsp;two European Opens on the European Tour and played host to some of the world's leading players including Nick FaldoErnie ElsVijay SinghColin MontgomerieJose Maria OlazabalNick Price and Ian Woosnam.
The East Course was designedandnbsp;to test theandnbsp;talent of the world's finest golfersand measuring 7 138 yards from the gold teesis a formidable test. The East was the chosen course for the 1993 and 1994 European Opensand has subsequently played host to five European Challenge Tour events and four PGA European Tour qualifying schools between 1994 and 1997. Cleverly placed tees permit the less competitive golfer to enjoy the character of the Eastwith blue tees providing a challenging 6 760 yards orfor the less ambitious the white tees measure a modest 6 046. The ladies have course ratings on both the white tees and their own LGU markers which measure 5 294 yards. Well bunkered greens and fairways on the front nine lull you into a false sense of security for the challenging back nine which contains arguably one of the best closing stretches in golf.
The West Courseformally known as andlsquo;The Members Course'is often regarded as the more scenicbut isandnbsp;tighter from the teeandnbsp;and more undulating. Surprisingly andnbsp;it is slightly longer than the East Course (7 154 yards)andnbsp;butandnbsp;thereandnbsp;are tees to suit varying standards of golferthe blues measuring 6 638 the whites 6 069 and the ladies 5 199. After a gentle opening dog leg par fourthe second takes you uphill on a long par five to a tight green. From there you face a par three over waterfollowed by a gentle par four and the 5tha long and the sprawling par five. Soon you reach the halfway point of the Westas you approach the 9th green and the magnificence of the country house hotelHorsted Place. The closing stretch demands powerful and accurate ball-striking to ensure that you protect your score.
