Of all the Belgian courses that Tom Simpson has designed, he is perhaps proudest of the Sart-Tilman course, which was officially opened in 1939. The Liège course is a genuine delight. It’s all the more remarkable that the famous British architect, who also designed the courses of Spa, Ravenstein, Mons and Antwerp, was hindered in his creative endeavours by a hostile natural environment and a limited budget. Despite having to clear nearly twenty acres of trees, remove fourteen thousand stumps and add five thousand cubic meters of earth, the challenge was nevertheless overcome

Sart Tilman
Dit is toch één van de betere banen van Belgie, zeker de greens mogen tot de moeilijkste en snelste gerekend worden, prachtig verzorgde bosbaan/parkbaan die niet extreem lang is, het enige minpuntje zijn de paar luidruchtige wegen vlak in de buurt.

Sart Tilman
A very neat golf course, which aims for an upscale audience. Nonetheless, the reception is welcoming. A nice old parkland course, which is more flat and open around the clubhouse. After a few holes it gets quite undulated and some nice holes are presented, with the more attractive loop being the first nine.
