Finca Cortesin

Today we played at the very beautiful Finca Cortesin golf course in Marbella. Most challenging so far - 100 bunkers but I only got in 2! Fairways were long and sloping and a numer of tees required you to hit over scrubbery.  The service was wonderful - fresh fruit and water delivered half way round and our preordered lunch ready when we finished.

Surrounding countryside is bare and mountainous contrasting with the lush fairways. Lost 2 balls in scrub but enjoyed the challenge.

Check out the driving range! Club house very luxurious as seems to be the norm.  Clubs here have nomination fees of 100,000€ and more with yearly fees starting at 10,000€.  Golf membership is for people with deep pockets.
