The UK's leading Golf Holidays experts Your Golf Travel.com are offering you the chance to win a fantastic 7 night break at the 5* Dona Filipa & San Lorenzo Resort for two people (based on two sharing a Classic Twin Room including breakfast) including 3 rounds of golf each.
The Dona Filipa Hotel is located at the heart of the Vale do Lobo Resort just 25 minutes from Faro Airport. This 5* property overlooks the Atlantic Ocean and beach, and is just 50 yards from a selection of bars and restaurants. The hotel itself features classic Algarve decor, with terracotta tiled floors and hardwood furnishings. There is a welcoming bar, a choice of three restaurants and a pool and sun terrace which enjoys tremendous views out to sea.
However it is the award -winning San Lorenzo Golf Course that is the main draw. Located a 10-minute transfer away on the Quinta do Lago estate San Lorenzo was opened in 1988, and quickly established itself throughout the 1990's as the 2nd best golf course in continental Europe* with its immaculate playing surfaces and exclusive location.
The Bermuda sewn fairways flow along undulating terrain through pine trees and well-protected greens before hitting the courses own 'Amen Corner' on holes 6-8. Here the picturesque Ria Formosa estuary cuts in from the left catching errant tee shots and approaches. However it is the infamous closing holes with their 'risk-and-reward' element that justifies the courses reputation as the best match-play golf course in Europe. Finally the timber-framed clubhouse and terrace provides the perfect spot from which to enjoy a drink and soak up the sun, before heading back to the hotel.
The perfect combination of 5* accommodation and superb golf, Dona Filipa & San Lorenzo Resort was voted the No.1 golf resort in Europe this year**.
