Real Club De Golf Sotogrande

This is testament to the quality of the layout conceived by Robert Trent Jones Senior, who also penned the plans for Valderrama just along the road. Sotogrande is very much a private members' club, but the limited number of visitors to advance down the hallowed first fairway are made extremely welcome.

Trent Jones used his considerable imagination and guile to create a test that would stand up to the attack of the most talented players, utilising the majestic pine, cork, oak and eucalyptus trees that populate the landscape in particular. The designer also positioned his bunkers and water hazards deftly around the greens, most of which are elevated, demanding unerring accuracy to threaten the pin.

Though not especially long by today's gargantuan standards Sotogrande is a subtle test that is still relevant for the professional game; the demand for creativity and imagination were deemed enough to host the final stages of European Tour between 1998 and 2001.

The course remains a gem within what is already a rich golfing area, and is without doubt one of the most desirable courses to experience anywhere in Europe.

Everything you would want from a top class private members club. Worth every penny.

Greens were very hard to adjust to. Fast with subtle borrows. A great course by any measure, but out of the 4 our least favourite as it has less visual impact.

A lovely course. Fairly flat and nicely set up. Lacked the welcome and quality of La Reserva and San Roque but well worth playing.

Excellent golf course. Unfortunately the greens had been sanded recently and so were not in great condition. Our timings were probably unfortunate. The Caddy Master's staff were fantastic, cleaning the clubs, putting them in the coach etc.
