Re: Hua Hin Golf Gossip

I do not think there are any. It seems to be 18 holes and that's it, although some of the late 18 hole deals mean that if completed you would be in darkness !!

Re: The Floods of 2011

It would be so much easier ( for most of us) to understand if road maps were published showing the new areas of flooding and its probable direction.

I do have Bangkok maps but this would be so much better to quickly understand

Re: Where are the best eateries? In town or on the outskirts

On my trip to HH last week I discovered the so-called "Grand Night Market" .............. And I found stuff I was looking for which I had not found in other places such as fresh spring rolls (Kuay Tiew Lui Suan) and Khanom Jeen Naam Yaa Ga-ti. I thought Kuay Tiew Lui Suan was a very thin ...

Re: Hua Hin Golf Gossip

Sorry for not being clear but I am in Hua Hin now but just wanted to travel further south for a game if it was possible,maybe 2 hours away. You are out of luck as the next courses south are in Koh Samui and Phuket, although I believe there is a nine hole within hotel grounds 1 to 2 hours south but ...

With 20+ I suggest you do some bookings and perhaps contact Hua Hin Golf Tours, who will give you all the information.

Re: Tea

I drink Yorkshire tea and import it from the UK because it is not available in Hua Hin - 4 years ago it was in Ham & Bacon but the supplier in Bangkok stopped importing, I think. There are two types of Yorkshire tea, just the plain Yorkshire or Yorkshire Gold, the latter is somewhat stronger and...

Postal Courier service to UK

Can anyone advise me on this availability in Hua Hin

I need to send an envelope to the UK urgently using a courier service.

DHL have delivered to me once but I do not think they have an office in Hua Hin.

I think the Post Office have something but I do not know how reliable they are.
