| About
the Course | "Due to its configuration,
the course is divided into two distinct areas. A first round from holes one to
nine, that can be considered slightly easier, and a second round, from holes 10
to 18, where holes 11, 15. 16. 17 and 18 stand out for their individual complexity.
This allows golf players to combine all the technical elements of the game with
the beauty, peacefulness and quiet of the surroundings." The Club has
hosted two European Challenge Tour Grand Finals (1999 and 2000)
