belfry

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'golf course' is the definition.
The definition and answer can be both man-made objects as well as being singular nouns.
Perhaps there's an association between them I don't understand?

'beryl excited about female' is the wordplay.
'excited' is an anagram indicator.
'about' means one lot of letters goes inside another.
'female' becomes 'f' (common abbreviation).
'beryl' with letters rearranged gives 'belry'.
'belry' enclosing 'f' is 'BELFRY'.
