Descriptions /Portugal/Lisbon
Penha Longa - 6918 yards par 72
Designed
by Robert Trent Jones Jnr, this is one of the best courses in Portugal. Twice
host to the Portuguese Open it is located in beautiful countryside in the
foothills of the Sintra Mountains. It wanders through pine forest, rocks and
old monastery ruins giving it a distinctive feel. There are plenty of hazards
to watch out for and will test all departments of the game. A quality course
that deserves it reputation.
Estoril Golf Club -
5762 yards par 69
One of Portugal's oldest courses that has a great reputation and it lives
up to it. Lined with pine trees with well kept fairways it is a relatively
short course that puts emphasis on accuracy. Set in fairly uneven terrain
it uses the natural contours to create a course that can be considered as
target golf. A good course always in good condition.
Lisbon Sports Club
- 5806 yards par 69
The oldest course in the area dating back to 1922. Located in a superb position
north of Lisbon it offers a good test of golf. Making good use of water hazards
and some tight fairways this is no easy course. Has some elevated greens which
can cause problems if not played the correct way, especially the 7th, it is
a good test of golf.
Quinta da Marinha -
6615 yards par 71
A Robert Trent Jones design that was totally refurbished in early 2000. It
was host to the 2001 Estoril Open showing the quality of the course. Fairways
are wide with several ponds that were increased to lake size during the refurbishment.
This width is made up by the toughness of the approaches to small heavily
bunkered greens. A reputation for being in good condition and with superb
views this is a course that offers everything for the golfer.
Aroeira I - 6750 yards
par 72
A
course with a deservedly good reputation. Host to the Portuguese Open on two
occasions this Frank Pennick design is very impressive winding it's way through
dense pine forest. Ranked as one of the best in Europe it is built on slightly
undulating terrain and offers everything that a course should. To score well
both length and accuracy is required with the greens well protected and water
in play on a few holes. A definite must if playing in the area.
Quinta da Beloura -
6399 yards par 73
Opened in 1994 this is a fairly flat course with water being the prominent
feature. An American style course that is situated in the foothills of the
Sintra Mountains it is easy walking and a good design. Not as tough as a lot
of the courses in the area, it uses water to great effect with lakes and streams.
Well maintained with some good views, it offers good golf and a tough finish.
Belas - 7018 yards
par 72
Rated as one of the best new courses in Portugal. Designed by Rocky Roquemore
and opened in 1998 it is situated in the Sintra Hills and is gaining a great
reputation. It has a heathland feel to it with the fairways bordered by scrub
and very few trees. Built over rolling terrain it is extremely well kept and
has very well guarded greens. Bunkers come into play on most of the holes
as does a little bit of water. Well worth playing.
Montado - 6725 yards
par 72
Surrounded by Muscatel vineyards and cork trees, this relatively flat course
is a good test of golf. Water is the primary hazard and has been used to great
effect throughout the design. Suitable for golfers of all levels it is enjoyable
and easy walking. Provide that the H2O is avoided it is possible to put a
good score together and makes for enjoyable golf.
Aroeira II - 6980 yards
par 72
A
very impressive Donald Steel design opened in April 2000. A mixture of the
Aroeira 1 and American design with treelined fairways although not as tight
and with more water in play especially on the back nine. The fairways and
greens are nicely contoured and always in great condition. This is a course
that will be equal to Aroeira 1 in time and combined gives two great courses.
Quinta do Peru - 6645
yards par 72
This course is one of the most popular in the area and also one of the best.
A Rocky Roquemore design it goes through pine and cork tree forests in a unspoilt
setting. Offering an interesting layout that combines treelined fairways and
water hazards to great effect it is a great challenge for all golfers. Add
a reputation for being maintained in excellent condition and you have a course
that is a must play when visiting the Lisbon area.
Troia - 6931 yards
par 72
Rated as the hardest course in Portugal. This Trent Jones links design has
small greens and tight fairways and gives a unique experience. Access is only
available to this scheduled spot with a short ferry ride, but it is worth
it. The design is superb and has been rated at number 2 in Portugal. Has undergone
recent improvements with new ownership and is now playing to its potential.
The clubhouse has been improved and combined with the views it is a golfing
paradise and should not be missed.
Golden Eagle - 6597
yards par 72
Another Rocky Roquemore design that is rated very highly. A private club that
has opened it's doors to visitors and has uncovered a hidden gem. Set in tranquil
dense forest it puts a premium on accuracy with bunkers and water well positioned.
Has been improved greatly over the past few years under new ownership it now
presents itself in great condition and a wonderful golfing experience.
Praia d'el Rey - 7114
yards par 72
A
links course that has gained a reputation as being one of the best in Portugal.
Offering some spectacular holes running along the Atlantic ocean, with undulating
fairways, deep bunkers and natural sand hazards. The front nine is more treelined
surrounded by pine forest and then the course sweeps down to the sea for some
real links golf. A spectacular course.
