Portugal Golf & Fado - Quinta do Vale Golf Resort

www.teetimes.p...
Quinta do Vale Golf Course is a superb creation of Severiano Ballesteros, that opened in 2008 with the presence of its creator. Taking advantage of the natural valley the Spanish champion designed a three sixes course (6 Par 3, 6 Par 4, 6 Par 5). The front nine flow along the valley with many water obstacles and while the back nine gently go uphill to finish with a short par 4 inf front of the club house. The hole 10 is the signature hole with its famous bunker shaped in S, to remember the name of its creator. It is a course where an average player can play for a very good result, if he respects the course. Being aggressive without mastering the shots, will result in several difficulties, and probably some lost balls inside the water ponds. The 17 and 18 holes will stay in your mind. The north wind is often in play, as the valley makes a natural crossing channel from the hills to the riverside. A great golf course with beautifull views over the Guadiana river.
