of pine and jacaranda trees there is lots of character, especially with raised
greens providing delightful targets. Two of the holes play right beside the
Mediterranean, adding to the course’s appeal.
Font del Llop, Alicante
This is a sparkling new golf resort, opened in 2010. It was designed by the
Stirling&Martin team who introduced 18 very different greens, with their own
distinct personalities. Located in the heart of the Costa Blanca, the resort offers
luxury across the board, but it is the golf course that lures many. Set in a steepsided valley the course also boasts a small river which runs through the course
and comes in to play from time to time. There are five tees so it appeals to
golfers of all abilities.
Sherry Golf Jerez, Cadiz
A languid pace, generous, undulating fairways and greens, and bunkering and
water features all add to the relaxed rhythm of Stirling&Martin’s design. It
follows an American style without too many harsh slopes, so the course is
accessible to all golfers. Located just 10 minutes from Jerez Airport (and 50
minutes from Seville) there is an additional nine hole par three course. The vast
and impressive clubhouse offers a welcome way to end a round of golf.
The Global Golf Company lives up to its name, operating private and resort
operations in Spain and Morocco, while also designing golf courses through
Stirling&Martin in a further seven countries (Argentina, Cuba, Russia, Dominican
Republic, Ukraine, Poland and Romania). This has given Global Golf the
opportunity to develop the strategies and talent which allow clients to excel in
the competitive world of golf and club operations.
There’s little doubt that the Global Golf Company is at the forefront of Spanish
golf and their association with any club should always be seen as a stamp of
approval.
