The Golf Superbly organised event in a lovely location with really high standard golf courses. Thank you 4 Simplyhealth Professionals Golf Conference The Stadium Course Designed by Ryder Cup star Neil Coles MBE and former Spanish winner Ángel Gallardo, this spectacular course has consistently been ranked among the ten best golf courses in Europe since it opened in 1999. Conceived as a venue for world-class tournament golf, The Stadium Course has twice hosted The Spanish Open, winning plaudits from some of the world s best players. Dramatic elevated tee shots are a feature of the course, with tree-lined holes cutting a path through pine forest to large, undulating greens protected by lakes and bunkers. Recently upgraded and lengthened to 7,333yds from the championship tees, this par-72 course is one of the most exhilarating experiences in European golf, with different tees and multiple pin positions for all discerning golfers. The signature 13th hole commands wonderful views of the Pyrenees dominating Montseny Massif. The Tour Course While the Stadium Course throws down a serious golfing challenge, the Tour Course offers players an opportunity to enjoy a friendlier par-72 layout, set amid lakes and pine trees. Opened in 2005, this slightly shorter and more forgiving course is another Ángel Gallardo and Neil Coles creation, and a perfect complement to the demanding Stadium Course. While the picturesque front nine meanders through pine forest with strategically placed bunkers, the back nine opens out onto rolling golf holes that ride the contours of the estate and its lakes. Risk-taking players are rewarded here, especially on the par-five holes, where there is space to open the shoulders from the tees and attack the greens. Popular with members and visiting golfers, this beautifully conditioned course has co-hosted European Tour Qualifying School Final Stage since 2008, so a high quality experience is assured.
