Italy, the other home<br />
of golfers<br />
"Golfing along Italian gulfs": What sounds like a song<br />
is a fantastic idea for an Italian holiday with hundreds<br />
of courses waiting for golf fans.<br />
VISIT<br />
With its mild climate and all year-round playability, Italy is a great destination<br />
to pick for a golf holiday. The nation boasts a tremendous array of luxury<br />
accommodation options and a golfing experience as good as its European<br />
neighbours, but its fairways aren’t anywhere near as busy. Following are just<br />
some ideas for enthustiasts and amateurs alike.<br />
BRAND CAR D<br />
EMILIA ROMAGNA<br />
ONE UNIQUE GREEN FEE FOR<br />
25 GOLF COURSES<br />
Emilia Romagna is a year-round golf destination, thanks to 23<br />
magnificent championship courses - 13 of them with 18 holes,<br />
two with 27 holes- located close to one another and ready to<br />
welcome guests 365 days a year.<br />
It is not only the combination of sunny days, manicured greens<br />
combined with historical cities, pristine landscapes, the<br />
maritime romance of the Adriatic and exciting gastronomy. A<br />
very special experience is Antico Borgo di Tabiano Castello in<br />
Salsomaggiore Terme near Parma. Golfers can play within the<br />
sight of an authentic medieval castle.<br />
Emilia-Romagna offers a special incentive for golf players:<br />
visitors need only pay one green fee for all of 25 of its fantastic<br />
courses, just 20 minutes away from each other by car. This<br />
means that in a whole month of holiday, a golfer can technically<br />
experience the wonderful challenge of a new course every day.<br />
A true paradise for golf enthusiasts<br />
FRIULI VENEZIA GIULIA<br />
SEVEN GOLF COURSES IN<br />
EXCEPTIONAL SURROUNDINGS<br />
Friuli Venezia Giulia has seven 18-hole golf courses, located not<br />
far from one another. This unparalleled choice makes it possible to<br />
combine, in a small area, a wide range of landscapes and an array of<br />
technical features.<br />
Close to the sea one can find Lignano Golf Club which blends-in<br />
perfectly with surrounding coastal pine woods. A key aspect of<br />
Grado Golf Club is also water: in this case a lagoon. TriesteGolf Club<br />
has a spectacular setting, high up on the Karst plateau overlooking<br />
the city. Hole seventeen offers a stunning view of the enchanting Gulf<br />
of Trieste. The Golf & Country Club Castello di Spessa is surrounded<br />
by the hills and vineyards of the Collio area around Gorizia, at the<br />
foot of a 13th century castle. Udine Golf Club’s eighteen holes are<br />
also set in undulating terrain at the base of the Alps, near two lakes.<br />
The Tarvisio Senza Confini Golf Club is also located in the midst of<br />
the Julian Alps. Last is Golf Club Pordenone, located at the foot of the<br />
Piancavallo mountains in a nature reserve.<br />
But above all, between a putt and a drive, visitors will have the<br />
opportunity to explore the wonderfully varied region of Friuli Venezia<br />
Giulia with its multi-faceted history<br />
The Riviera Golf Resort<br />
near Rimini<br />
