Mon 09 Mar, Funchal (Madeira) – Palheiro Golf Club
This course requires all-terrain players. There are some fairly sizeable height differences to contend with, because the 18 holes take you through the Palheiro Estate with all its beautiful flowers and lush vegetation. The clubhouse is a particular highlight and looks over the course, with impressive views of the island and part of the Atlantic – a great place for a drink at the end of your round.
Wed 11 Mar, Lisbon – Oitavos Dunes Golf Club
Nomen est omen: the 18 fairways are set amongst pine trees and an unspoilt desert landscape. The land on which the golf course was built is privately owned by the fourth generation of the Champalimaud family. The family has paid particular attention to maintaining the natural resources. This is what makes the course so special.
Fri 13 Mar, Cadiz – Montenmedio Golf & Country Club
Pines, palm trees and putting lines: one of the most naturally scenic golf courses in Spain awaits your visit. Set in the highlands of Cadiz, the wide fairways are lined with beautiful mature trees, which demand a lot of precision from players during their round. The tricky greens with their treacherous bunkers add to the challenge. You will be rewarded for your efforts by stunning views of the typical white villages of the area, such as Vejer de la Frontera, Benalup and Medina. Severiano Ballesteros once said of this course: “Montenmedio is one of those golf courses that no golfer should miss!”
Mon 16 Mar, Valencia – El Saler Golf Club
Set right on the beach with access to the Mediterranean, this 18-hole course with wide, playable fairways has been designed for the sole purpose of an enjoyable game. The well-maintained fairways run right up to the rough and therefore almost always ensure a relaxed assault on the flag. Just a few strategically placed bunkers stand in your way now and then. At the end of your round, you can look forward to a visit to the futuristic clubhouse.
Tue 17 Mar, Mallorca – Alcanada Golf Club
The master architect Robert Trent Jones Jr created Mallorca’s masterpiece in the middle of a nature reserve. The setting ensures the ideal symbiosis of landscape, sea and golf course. Even the roughly 50-minute excursion from the EUROPA 2 to the golf course is worth taking for the spectacular views of Alcudia Bay. The actual game with the golf ball quickly becomes secondary.
Thu 19 Mar, Barcelona – Club de Golf Vallromanes
Set in the hills around Vallromanes, 18 neatly modulated fairways are lined in part by 100- year old pine trees. Players are constantly surrounded by these mature trees on this beautiful parkland course. The layout includes some long distances, so a golf cart will be ideal. Otherwise, the wide fairways will begin to feel very long indeed.
