Golf courses on the Costa Brava - Catalonia - Barcelona

AUTUMN IN CATALONIA
4 days of golf on the costa brava
for just £297.00!!!

your accommodation - the hotel Garbi***

The Hotel Garbi sits by the sea in the resort of Calella de Palafrugell. Close to all the excellent courses that the area has to offer (see below). A very well-known resort amongst the well-heeled Catalonians (keep an eye out for the King of Spain's daughter who has her summer house here).

The bedrooms at the hotel all have balconies overlooking the Mediterranean and can be either Singles, Twins or Doubles.

There are some beautiful four-star rooms too in the new wing with jacuzzis at only a small supplement. Prices below are based on the standard.

The hotel pool is normally open until the end of October (weather permitting) and the Mediterranean is only a few steps away anyway. The quiet poolside bar and patio makes an ideal spot to relax and analyse your round. Down in the village there are plenty more options for drinking and dining.

Anyone looking for a later night out should jump in a cab and sample the distractions of Platja d'Aro just five minutes away around the point and open until late...

The Serra family, who have owned the hotel for years, are restaurateurs too - so you are assured of the finest local produce beautifully prepared in their plush restaurant.

Alternatively the small seaside village only minutes away on foot has a good selection of other restaurants and bars. Needless to say, with a demanding Spanish clientele they have to be good to survive!

Your choice of golf courses

Included in your stay are four rounds of golf on the very best courses in the area.
You can choose wherever you want to play from any of the courses detailed below.
N.B. There is a small supplement of £5 for Saturday and Sunday golf.

PGA Catalunya
Architect: N. Coles & A. Gallardo.
18 holes: 6588m: par 72.
A spectacular and challenging course designed with European Tour events in mind. From the elevated clubhouse the course descends through dense pines where the extensive water features come into play. A challenge for all abilities.
Second 18 holes now fully open too.

PGA Catalonia G.C.

Empordá - Forest
Architect: R. Von Hagge.
18 holes: 6165m: par 72.
Starting in the sunlight the first two holes lead you away from the sanctuary of the Clubhouse into the depths of the pine forest beyond. When the heat is on the cool scented shade they provide is a magical place to play golf. At the far end of the forest you will find (or hopefully not find!) the added complication of a lake or two to cross...
A delightful course, well worthy of its place on the European Tour Qualifying rota.

Empordá - Links
Architect: R. Von Hagge.
6160m: par 71: par 35.
The original "links" nine have been extended with nine more remarkable holes - some of which are truly spectacular. Perhaps not classical links golf, due to the abundance of sculpted lakes to negotiate, but the rolling terrain and knee-high rough are reminiscent of the best of the celtic links.

Platja de Pals
Architect: F. Hawtree.
18 holes: 6222m: par 73.
The oldest club in the area. A level stretch of coastal pine forest was transformed by Fred Hawtree into a delightful golfing challenge for all levels of player. Thick canopies of parasol pines line every fairway and the greens are well defended with sand.

Golf d’Aro
Architect: R. Espinosa.
18 holes: 6218m: par 72.
Not for the faint hearted! Running along hill top ridges, ravines bordering many fairways. Lovely views and well worth investigating if you have the nerve (and sufficient ammo). As yet, limited clubhouse facilities at this course.

Girona
Architect: F. Hawtree.
18 holes: 6100m: par 72.
The same architect as Pals but with strikingly different terrain to work with. Just North of Girona this is a hilly course so a buggy is worth considering. Pyrenean panoramas from the clubhouse and many parts of the course.

Peralada
Architect: J. Soler.
18 holes: 6128m: par 72.
A course that will have you thinking on every tee with bunkers seemingly always on a good drive. The terrain is studded with squat olive trees lending an unusual appearance to the course at first sight.

Perelada G.C.
