course in THE
‘PEUGEOT EUROPEAN GOLF GUIDE 2004-05 |
This is a sister course to the Quinta
da Ria, and they share a clubhouse. It
is about 15 minutes from the villa. The views of the sea and the mountains are
a delight. Century-old olive and carob trees and the typical orange
groves provide a truly secluded feel to this wonderful course.
Two generously proportioned driving
ranges provide magnificent views of the mountains as well as the ocean.
On the second driving range, designed for practice with irons only, is the
Castro Marim
This is narrow course on hilly terrain
with fine views (buggies recommended).
It is about 25
minutes from the villa, near to the Spanish border.

As at 2009, the first of two unique
championship 18-hole Jack Nicklaus signature golf courses at Monte Rei is
already open for play in the north, whilst the second, in the south is at an

2007 features five lakes, surrounded by a stunning natural landscape, rich
with indigenous trees and plants.

Quinta do Vale
A challenging layout, in a unique natural environment”.
The 18 hole golf course was specially designed by the world famous player Severiano
Ballesteros, considered European Player of the Century, who now owns
Trajectory, S.L., the company responsible for the project.
The Quinta do Vale golf course has been designed to attract golfers of every
level and will be a strong candidate for hosting important international
championships.
Covering an area of 75 hectares, the
course is fully integrated into the surrounding natural landscape.
There are some excellent courses just
over the border in Spain which can be accessed via the motorway:
Isla Canella –
This course is close to the border
town of
Islantilla –
Overlooking the resort of Isla Antilla, the golf course in
places runs parallel with the sea, making it interesting, challenging and
very scenic. This 27 hole complex is 35 minutes drive from Tavira.
Some of the holes are hilly, others undulating and the wind plays a key part
on these courses. We would recommend buggies on this course. The clubhouse
and its facilities are first class.
There are
other courses to the west of Faro.
