San Roque Golf
San Roque Golf (old course) forms one side of the golden triangle of the Costa del Sol Golf, along with the world famous courses at Sotogrande and Valderrama.
The 18 hole championship golf course was a result of a joint effort by British designer Dave Thomas and the Japanese owner Asahi Kanko in anticipation of it hosting major European Championship events and founded in 1990.
San Roque Golf Course has two distinct loops and is regarded as one of the finest in Spain. The first 9 holes set off into cork oaks that are a feature of the golf course and will eventually return you to the clubhouse. The second 9 are considered to be that little bit more open but you have to contend with some serious water hazards with meandering streams and ponds to negotiate. The course offers a mixture of short and long par 4's, par 5's which for the long hitters are reachable in two and excellent par 3's. San Roque Golf rewards the accurate golfer who can overcome the tight fairways and tiered undulating greens. It is a course that gives pleasure to all standards.
One thing you will find at San Roque Golf is the course is always presented in magnificent condition. The fairways are well dressed, the bunkers look a picture and the greens are usually immaculate. This is all part of the standards offered at the San Roque complex.
On arrival at San Roque Golf Course you will find ample parking and a magnificent clubhouse with bar and restaurant facilities and a large terrace area. The staff are always friendly and look after you superbly. The changing rooms are first class with well- equipped shower facilities. There is a well- stocked pro shop and large practice area that includes putting and pitching greens.
