The Real Club de Golf Sotogrande is considered one of the masterpieces of Robert Trent Jones, who chose this course as one of his five favorites among the more than 500 he designed around the world, as stated in his book “GOLF MAGNIFICENT CHALLENGE” published in 1988.

The quality of the course is well reflected in the winners it has had over the years, among others, Severiano Ballesteros, José María Olazábal, Roberto de Vicenzo, Sergio García, Padraig Harrington or Rory McIlroy.

Inaugurated in 1964, Sotogrande was Trent Jones’ first course in Europe and treasures all his design philosophy, which consisted in making courses perfectly integrated in the natural environment, which would be a great challenge for the best players, but affordable and fun for everyone.

Nothing better describes the course at Real Club de Golf Sotogrande, an exciting course for players of any level that preserves all the natural beauty of the estate where it was built just 150 meters from the Mediterranean Sea.

The par 72, 6,492-meter course features long tees, wide fairways, and elevated, subtly shaped and fast greens that contain the greatest difficulty of the course. Of the hundred or so bunkers on the course, 69 are located around the greens, which requires maximum precision from the player when attacking the flags. The variety of the holes is another of the characteristics of Sotogrande, variety not only in shapes and distances, but also in vegetation: the mixture of cork oaks, pines, palm trees and other species, give the course a great personality and beauty.
