Re: Dogs on Royal Hua Hin Golf Course

It was probably a combination of early start, bad caddie, rain, playing like crap and the dogs just rounded...

Dogs on Royal Hua Hin Golf Course

If its just me being a grumpy old man then I apologize in advance. This morning after getting up at 5.30am to play golf before work at Royal Hua Hin and walking off the course at the 7th hole due to a pack of around 20 dogs following us around fighting and barking did not make me a happy bunny. We g...

Follow the tips given so far and use the internet, research the developers name and previous developments, definitely knock on doors of previous developments and ask. Also check on properties being built at present. Always use a Lawyer !! get them to check land deeds etc. ask about the length of gua...

Re: Palm Bistro - Awesome food!

Great to find an out of town restaurant of this superb standard at sensible prices, no traffic and no parking problems, this will become a regular night out and Sunday lunchtime venue.

Cheeky bugger that Clive, slow 4 ball in front !! we never saw anybody behind us, we only saw our female companion yards ahead of us !! mind you I would rather look at her ahead of us than the 4 sweaty lumps huffing and puffing around the first 9 holes behind us, until the buggy magically arrived fo...

Grand Sport Gym at Grand Market has better equipment, good free weights, benches and cables, you can buy a weekly or monthly pass to train as many times as you like which works out very cost effective if he is a keen trainer. Grand Market is very far down the road not far past Market Village.

Bike shop on the main road the same side as the palace as you come in to Hua Hin approx half way between the palace and the first set of traffic lights. Not many mountains in Hua Hua but there is a good track that leads down from Black Mountain to BoFai and over Soi 88 there are some off road tracks.

Thinking of joining the tour myself as soon as I break the 100 mark and thats the first 9 holes. Seriously go to John he doesn't tr...
