Jönköping, A6 Golf Club
Leaving Eksjö, we set off on the last "leg" of our road trip, back to Borås. The largest city between there and here is Jönköping (see the map at the bottom of the post). We knew from going the other way on our first day of the trip, that there were a lot of road works going near Jönköping - and we also didn't really feel like driving into the city centre anyway. (It's not quite as large as Linköping, but it's larger than Borås.) But we did need to stop for lunch somewhere... However, Jönköping has not just one, but two golf courses on the outskirts... And as I said in an earlier post from this trip (from Åtvidaberg): "One thing we've learned on previous road trips is that golf clubs usually also have restaurants serving lunch." I think we've also visited one of the two outside Jönköping before (years ago) - but this time it was the other one (new to us) that was most convenient:
The restaurant is in the building to the left. I did not take any photos inside, but after lunch we went for a little stroll before we got back in the car again.
There used to be an Artillery regiment in Jönköping (closed since 1985); hence the name A6 - and the reason for having this old cannon on display up on a hill, I suppose!!
Golfers keen to practice hitting the ball (or whatever the correct term is...)
I think my favorite is the gorgeous intense sky with the little circle of golf carts! I think many of the golf clubs around here, you have to be a member in order to eat there.
ReplyDeleteLooks like a nice golf club, well maintained and tidy, from previous experience golf clubs have some great food and good prices.
ReplyDeleteStopping at a golf club is like a clever and relaxing way to enjoy lunch while avoiding the bustle of Jönköping’s city centre
