The National Golf Brussels : National Course is contemporary parkland with broad surfaces and legible lines, with former racecourse / Brussels fringe as geographic reference points, a eighteen-hole course opened in 2017 and associated with Bruno Steensels. At par 72, with multiple tees adapted to the property, its identity comes from the direct relationship among architecture, ground and landscape. The property reads as a continuous composition rather than a collection of signature holes.

Architecture
Broad fairways, sculpted bunkers, large greens and extensive water create a modern strategic course on exposed ground. Firm ground, wind, low trajectories and the use of natural contours are more important than purely aerial target golf. Visible width does not mean an absence of composition.
The course in detail
Open parkland, flat to gently rolling, with water features, young planting and long views. Recent construction gives good drainage and surfaces, keeping the course playable out of season. Bruno Steensels created expansive contemporary parkland of sculpted relief, large water features, legible bunkers and championship-scale greens.
Young planting still leaves long horizons.

History
Developed on the former Sterrebeek racecourse near Brussels, The National was designed by Belgian architect Bruno Steensels and opened in the second half of the 2010s. That chronology matters because it explains the visible overlap of original design, maturing landscape and later adaptation.
Club life and competition progressively established its reputation. History is therefore more than added scenery: it remains legible in proportions, planting and maintenance. Opened in 2017 on the former Sterrebeek racecourse, the course established a major modern address in the Brussels suburbs.
Club experience
Confirm open days, any handicap requirement, caddie or cart arrangements and seasonal works. The visit is smoother when those details are settled before arrival.
Geography and setting
The course is located in Sterrebeek, on an open plateau where the former racecourse has given way to large water features, sculpted terrain, and expansive views. The modern design relies on compositional clarity: broad surfaces, legible hazards and tournament-scale lines. Planting and water provide a frame, but fairway and green proportions chiefly define its character.
The landscape alternately opens and closes, creating several scales of perception. Regional context is never abstract: climate, vegetation and the way the land has been occupied give the course an identity that could not simply be transferred elsewhere.
