A good but challenging course for all handicaps. Very hilly with a few blind tee shots and long carries to a couple of elevated greens. Quick and slopey but very good greens. In excellent condition for the time of year. Very friendly and helpful staff. An excellent restaurant, linked to the Casa Velha and more informal. Fantastic views from the clubhouse and course.
Located high above the vibrant city of Funchal and set within the historic Palheiro Estate, Palheiro Golf is a spectacular golfing haven on the beautiful island of Madeira. The course provides a visual feast from the very first tee shot, with sweeping panoramas of the mountainous landscape, the vast Atlantic Ocean, and the city's bay below.
Just a short 10-minute drive from the capital, this picturesque par-72 championship course offers a compelling and memorable golf break for any player. It’s no surprise that Palheiro Golf has been recognised with prestigious accolades, including its clubhouse being named the "World's Best Panoramic Clubhouse".
