Real Club de Golf Sotogrande

Andalucía, Spain

Sotogrande was designed by Robert Trent Jones. It was his first European course, and it is a credit that the par 72, 6,224-metre layout is still enthralling players more than 50 years after it first opened.

So much so we’ve booked to play there twice again on our next visit to Spain in October. Thoroughly recommend even if it’s a little expensive.

I've played it 3 times, last time was 5 years ago and I remember it to be amazing, but only remembered a couple of holes. Going through the round I understood why we had replayed it last time. What an amazing design! What a fun course to play; while challenging it's still forgiving.Amazing surroundi...

It only took me 10 years and 5 trips to Spain to finally be able to get the stars to align for a visit to Real Golf de Sotogrande.

Being a Robert Trent Jones Sr. fan, I mean what’s not to love about the likes of Peachtree and Valderrama, I was excited to finally see this course especially given the semi recent renovations (circa 2017).After a nice and subtle start the front 9 really digs in as if to say you better be warm by no...

I played Real Sotogrande on a golf tour that included Finca Cortesin and Valderrama.

In the weeks leading up to tour I was met with the same response from the friends I have on the South Coast of Spain, “the other two are special courses, but I’d want to be a member of Sotogrande”. Upon my return this is a statement I wholeheartedly agree with.First off, the clubhouse oozes class an...

I am a massive fan of this golf course.

I have played it twice now and the first time I didn’t realise how good it was, but, the second time, I realised what an amazing course it is. There was never any question about the experience of coming here. The clubhouse oozes tradition with famous golfer’s names jumping out at you on the competit...

With several friends praising Sotogrande as one of the best courses in Spain, it was great to finally tee off on this magnificent golf course.

Aware that the golf course is located in an area surrounded by houses, the first thing that struck me was how isolated the large part of the golf course was to the surroundings.Although condition is not something I prioritize when reviewing a golf course, it fascinated me what can be created if you ...

The mountains looked down in the distance, the palm trees stood as tall as in Beverly Hills and the turtle appeared to nod his head in appreciation before diving into the lake alongside the 18th.

To say that Real Club de Golf Sotogrande has a wow factor is probably the greatest understatement of our travels so far.Within 100 yards of the beach and set on one of the most exclusive tracts of land on the planet, R.C.G.S. is a sumptuous destination to play our wonderful game.From the moment we a...

There’s an understated elegance about Real Sotogrande that’s evident from the moment you arrive at the clubhouse.

Even the small scorecard you are given at the starter’s hut is rather plain and unfussy, providing the requisite information needed in terms of yardages, stoke indices and local rules, along with a club logo on the front – but there’s no photo, sponsorship logos or any other “clutter” that doesn’t n...

I came back to Real Sotogrande more than 6 years after my second visit as I had played it 2012 & 2013.

The course went on an entire renovation with some small redesigns on greens and they re did completely the short par 3 course which is one of the best features of the Club. The invite to play come by the GM and included playing 18 holes with spanish bomber Alvaro Quiros which was a great motivation....

This was my first time back to Sotogrande since the 2001 European Tour School.

From what I remember it was a fine course with fast undulating greens…..and that it was freezing! The view from the clubhouse down the first fairway whets the appetite with its open fairway this hole is a nice introduction to the course. I believe the strength in Sotogrande comes from hole 2 through...
