We were made very welcome and received a generous discount on the green fee due to work being carried out on the course, especially around the greens. However this did not hugely detract from our considerable enjoyment. Overall less demanding than Finca Cortesin, but still tough and if anything the greens were even quicker! We enjoyed a decent and reasonably priced lunch afterwards.

Despite only opening in 2003, La Reserva Golf Club is already considered to be among Andalucia's elite golfing destinations.
The course is situated in the prestigious Sotogrande estate, 25 mins from Gilbraltar Airport and 90 mins from Malaga Airport, and is an idyllic parkland resort layout. The American golf architect Cabell B. Robinson carved the golf course into the hillside creating stunning views out over the Mediterranean Sea and the Andalusian hills.
The championship layout consists of expansive fairways leading to large undulating greens accompanied by multiple water hazards, La Reserva's quality is considered to be on a par with its neighbour Valderrama and is a must-play for any golfer visiting Southern Spain.
