Real Sotogrande Golf
Real Sotogrande Golf course is a gem of a golf course on the Spanish Costa del Sol that was constructed more than 50 years ago, and it still provides a real test to even the best golfers.
Opened in 1964, the golf course was designed by Robert Trent Jones. It was his first European golf course.It is par 72, 6,224-metre layout Sotogrande is a private members' club, which maintains an air of calm and restrained sophistication, whilst at the same time providing a warm welcome to visitors. The clubhouse is well designed and elegant, the food and drink excellent and well presented, and the changing rooms.
There are many strategically placed bunkers and water hazards. The fairways are wide lined by wonderful cork, eucalyptus, pine, oak and palm trees, making par very difficult for the golfer be able to relax. The greens are fast and true.
The golf course underwent a massive upgrade in 2015-16 which was completed by Roger Rulewich and David Fleury in two stages to allow members the use of one nine at all times. Putting surfaces had grown by up to 40% of their original size over time so green shapes were fully recovered, with sub air systems installed to ensure their optimum performance. Fairways and tees were also reconstructed, using 41,000 kilometres of drainage, 71,000 tonnes of sand and 37 hectares of Bermuda grass.

We enjoyed the course ,unfortunately they are doing a lot of work on the path ways ,which detracts from the experience,but also appreciate that it needs to be done .

The greeting upon arrival was fantastic, we were very impressed with the practice facilities and clubhouse. The course was in near perfect condition and if anything a little too penal for me and the other 3 players. My wife and I played whilst our teenage daughter followed in the buggy. We were partnered with two young lads, one a scratch golfer, the other off 6. I play off 4 handicap, and my wife off 20, we all struggled with the challenge, especially the putting! A caddy to read the greens would have been a good addition... The two lads were being collected by their parents who we met just of the 18th green. We agreed to go for a drink afterwards and this is where it went really bad!
We were not allowed to sit in the bar as our daughter despite having been with us all day was not a paying player, neither were the two boys parents. The 4 playing / paying guests were welcome but not the parents or children! Such a crazy rule and to be honest spoilt what was a great day.
We appreciate rules are rules but the bar was empty and we just felt this policy was something the club needs to review.

The weather was terrible. We had to stop our round mid way due to thunders. Unfortunately, we weren't offered a partial refund for playing only 10 holes due to weather conditions. I would expect a better handling from a high-end golf course.
