Son Servera

The second oldest golf course in Mallorca , Son Servera Golf Club was opened in 1967 and was designed by John Harris . This 18-hole 6,050m ( 6,616 yards ) par-72 parkland course has generous fairways and the rough is kept at a fair length which means the punishment isn ’ t too severe if you have an errant shot . That said , it is a challenging golf course and demands accuracy off the tee as most of the fairways are narrow and tree-lined , with water coming into play on six holes . In particular holes 3 to 7 , as they weave through Mallorcan Pines to test your skills . In fact , most of the course was like this until a shuge storm blew down more than 2000 pine trees , changing it ’ s shape to it ’ s current day layout . It also calls for the ability to read greens well as they are full of subtle undulations and are very fast at times . The opening hole can often decide how the rest of your round is going to go , playing to a blind green . Close to the sea and surrounded by mountains it is tucked away in a peaceful part of the island . After enjoying the signature ‘ Pine Trap ’ holes and taking in the stunning sea views , the newly renovated clubhouse is the perfect place to end your experience .
