Quinta do Lago / Laranjal Course

Now boasting three championship courses, along with a new Paul McGinley Golf Academy, Quinta do Lago’s reputation as Europe’s premier golf destination has never been stronger.

The newest of its three courses, Laranjal, was voted ‘Best Golf Course’ at the Portuguese Travel Awards (Publituris) in 2011 and the iconic South Course, eight-times host of the Portuguese Open, was included in Golf World Magazine’s ‘Top 100 Golf Courses in Europe’ in 2012.

It was here that Colin Montgomery captured the first of his 24 European Tour titles in 1989, setting a new course record with a final round of 63. Many more golfing legends have teed off since including Justin Rose, Ian Poulter, Padraig Harrington, Vijay Singh and Ernie Els.

As one of the most comprehensive golfing estates in the world, Quinta do Lago is the destination of choice for millions of players who travel from all five continents in search of the ultimate golf experience.

With two Tour Level Driving Ranges, the resort also attracts many top professional and amateur golfers who come here looking for first-class facilities and the finest conditions in which to improve their game.

For residents and regular visitors, Quinta do Lago has two of the most exclusive members clubs in Europe, CGCL and Laranjal. Both offer levels of personal service that are unrivalled in Southern Europe along with a truly unique golf club atmosphere.
