(Vanajanlinna, Finland – June 18, 2007) Linna Golf, Europe’s best new course and a member of the PGA European Tour Courses group, has announced the opening of its new, luxury clubhouse, with ultra-modern golf suites, holiday apartments and spa, overlooking the 18th green.
The striking, rustic-style clubhouse, beautifully converted from 80-year-old farm buildings, includes 18 golf suites, each with their own private sauna and views over the acclaimed golf course on the shores of Vanajanlinna lake, just an hour’s drive from Helsinki.
Mika Walkamo, President of Linna Golf, said: "Linna Golf is proud to announce the opening of its new clubhouse and its exclusive, luxury golf suites."
"As well as our historic hotel, golfers visiting Linna can now also stay in ultra-modern, comfortable apartments, situated in the clubhouse, with the option to unwind in a traditional Finnish sauna after completing their round."
Linna Golf, which will host the 2010 European Amateur Championships, converted the old, brick-built barns and stores, part of a historic hunting estate, to complement the exquisite Vanjanlinna Hotel, Finland’s only castle hotel.
The new luxury clubhouse features a top class restaurant, professional’s shop, and locker rooms featuring traditional Finnish saunas, Turkish steam saunas and Jacuzzi. The Linna Golf clubhouse spa is available for use by guests and visitors and offers health and wellness treatments, including Asian, Swedish and herbal oils massage.
The clubhouse houses 12 of the 18 golf suites on its second and third floors, while six grand apartments are located in a separate building adjacent to the clubhouse. All suites feature a living room, kitchenette, bedrooms, bathroom and sauna.
