MEDALLION BELGRAVIA RESORT
🇯🇵 Ena, Gifu, JP
Designed by Kozasa Shozo
Medallion Belgravia occupies terrain in Ena, a city in southeastern Gifu Prefecture known for its mountainous topography and proximity to the Kiso River valley. The course was designed by Kozasa Shozo, a Japanese architect active during the country's golf course construction boom in the latter decades of the twentieth century. The region's elevation changes and forested hillsides typically provide the foundation for layouts that move through varied terrain, and courses in this part of Gifu generally feature routing that works with rather than against the natural contours.
The Medallion Belgravia Resort operates as a members' club with visitor access, a common model in Japanese golf where resort facilities support both regular play and overnight guests. The name suggests a design or branding concept that may reference European aesthetics, though the course itself reflects the practical demands of building golf in Japan's mountainous interior. Holes likely incorporate elevation shifts, with fairways carved from wooded slopes and greens positioned to take advantage of views across the surrounding valleys.
Ena's location between Nagoya and the Japan Alps places the course within reach of urban populations while maintaining a mountain resort character. The climate follows the inland pattern of hot summers and cold winters, with seasonal conditions influencing playability. As with many Japanese courses from this era, the design balances challenge for skilled players with accessibility for the resort's broader membership and guest base.
