| Quinta do Lago South was designed by William Mitchell, this 6,900 yard par 72 championship course, set in undulating hills and pine forest, has hosted the Portuguese Open seven times and is a truly magnificent course.
It has been ideally designed to test the low handicap golfer but it can also be enjoyed by the handicap golfer with the variety of tees. The long layout is suited by the long hitter but correct placement of shots is needed to score well. Strategic bunkering, occasional water hazards and big, contoured greens will test your game to the maximum.
The signature hole is the stunning par 3 15th with a long carry over a large lake to a well-guarded green set amongst pine trees. The 8th, 10th and 18th are outstanding par 4s on this scenic course which is an enjoyable experience for golfers of all standards. The golf course was rated 6th best in Portugal by Golf Digest Magazine (USA) in April 2005.
