Golf Holidays In Seville

This is the jewel in the crown when it comes to golf in Seville. Just a short hop from the centre of Andalucia’s capital city, Real Sevilla is a relatively new course (opened in 1991) but very much steeped in Spain’s golfing royalty.

Designed by legendary dual major winner José Maria Olazábal, the course has been the host venue for both the World Cup of Golf and the Spanish Open during its short lifetime. A course that’s tested the abilities of seasoned pros from Paul Casey and Luke Donald, to the best of the best on the European Tour.

From the moment you roll up to the first tee, you will understand why it retains such popularity.

With immaculate conditions to greet you, it’s a course that demands respect. Generally a flat track, it’s a course where accuracy and good thinking pay dividends. And a decent short game certainly wouldn’t go amiss either as you scramble to save shots. Find the fairways and you have a chance to hit the smallish greens and keep your card clicking along. But wayward drives beware.

This is a course that reflects the class, style and ingenuity of its creator. If you want to play like Ollie, play here.

Located just to the south of Seville city, Real Club Pineda offers golf among an array of other sports from tennis to croquet and equestrianism. Indeed, it was the latter for which the venue was first founded back in the 1940s.

The club is a refined club of a more traditional type. It’s very much a members’ club, but it’s welcoming to visitors and offers a pleasant off-course experience for food and drink in the recently renovated clubhouse.

The course itself is a relatively flat one, with very much a ‘course of two-halves’ vibe, largely down to the fact that it was originally a nine-hole course that has expanded to full size over the years. The older side of the course still retains echoes of past decades, while recent modernisations and the introduction of Bermuda fairways and bent grass greens lend it a more up-to-date feel.

As well maintained as you would expect from a private club, the course offers plenty of interest in its layout with a range of tees to suit most handicaps. And with some holes passing across the adjacent horse racing track, it’s certainly one of the more quirky courses to walk.

With its abundance of sporting facilities and a course of good quality, this is a recommended place to play when golfing down Sevilla way.

This is a welcoming treat for golfers of all handicaps looking for a pleasant and none too stressful day on the course. Frankly, from a relaxing golf holiday perspective, Zaudin ticks many boxes.

For one thing, it’s a really short and simple drive from the centre of Seville. So those who are basing themselves in the historic city can get out to the course in next to no time, and back to town read for all the evening’s activities on offer in this delightful city.

As for the golf itself, it’s simply a real holiday-style treat. A well-maintained course that’s relatively untaxing on foot, and blessed with plenty of scenery and greenery to retain interest. Wide fairways and receptive greens provide ample opportunity to keep your score respectable while offering enough to keep you regaling your round in the bar afterwards.

If you combine golf with a city break in Seville, chalk this one up to visit.

One of the great attractions about playing at Hato Verde is the natural surroundings in which it sits. A stunning backdrop for your golf, this new course, designed by former tour star Manuel Pinero beautifully blends the breath-taking natural habitat with a well-crafted design that comprises trickily placed bunkers, fairways of varying width and enough water to enjoy and be wary of.

As you’d want from a holiday golf course, there’s a challenge but enough to enjoy regardless of handicap, ability or current form. Sloping greens that reward well-placed approaches while sending others into three-putt territory, Hato Verde offers a great day for the group golfers out to enjoy a holiday Stableford.
