golf

I am over with my son for 4 days of golf 14 to 17 march. Can anybody recommend a course for a 2 ball on the Saturday..15th march? 

Hi there, I can recommend quite a few courses but it depends on how far you want to travel and your budget. When i was over in September i tried the new course at Los Flamingos called Villa Paderner (forgive the spelling) quite a challenge but enjoyable, I have also played Rio Real and La quinta  which are both within half an hour of Duquesa Village,rio real is a very good set up. Just up the road there is Almenara where they have a couple of courses available. Los Naranjos near Puerto Banus is good but if you were prepared to drive further afield la Cala resort and Santana are great courses.

Hope you get fixed up.

cheers

I would suggest you email Tom Crowley at The Clubhouse (its on the net) at the Eroski Centre. He has preferential rates at most of the local clubs and also runs a Golf Society, so you wont have a problem making up a 4 Ball.

John, we always use Patrizia at marbella concept who gets pretty good rates.

Hi again, Pitby, I am not trying to make a point, this Guy and his son, with 4 or 5 days available, just wants to go down the road and have a couple of rounds of Golf, hassel free with no stress. Calling Tom or Maureen is not a problem, at the "Clubhouse".

Regards,

Chills.

Chills, I don't know what you mean - did I say something to offend you?

I know JC1 and know that he's played many of the courses around here.  I have also booked with Tom at the Clubhouse on numerous occasions and played in his Wednesday golf society - I merely mentioned an alternative, where we have received good advice and a more extensive list of courses with reduced rates!

Thanks to you both, Jan and Chills....looks like it will still be raining when we get there

You're welcome, John - enjoy your golf wherever you play!

Chills, do you play in the society with Tom?  I would if the tee time was just a little earlier - last time I checked it was about 11am and just too late for me.  But always a good crowd to play with.
