The
courses are open all year round but the main season runs from
October to April when the weather is cooler and accommodation
and travel prices are cheaper.
Thousands
flock to the regions courses to enjoy the ideal conditions and
the stylish settings that combine to produce a lifestyle that
finds its ultimate expression in the golf clubs of the Costa
del Sol.
The
region's reputation was acknowledged recently by the decision
to hold the Golf World Cup 2004 in Seville.
There
is a more relaxed approach to the game than in Britain. Spanish
clubs tend not to be bound by the same strict sartorial straightjacket.
Although
wearing jeans and a t-shirt is unlikely to be met with enthusiastic
approval, there is certainly less clubhouse scrutiny than you'll
find in many British establishments.
People
enjoy playing golf, but it is the accompanying services and
facilities, social life of the clubhouses and the surroundings
that help create the unique lifestyle that makes the Costa del
Sol so desired by golfers.
Driver
and desire willing, whatever direction you decide to take on
the Costa del Sol, there is a world of prime golf just waiting
to be conquered.
Who
knows, maybe next time it will be you waving goodbye to the
damp British fairways? |
