| Patrizia's comment: |
Spectacular course! Not recommended for high hcp players. Very challenging, like snooker, always having to place your ball for the next shot. Just know that you may need 2 or 3 times the amount of balls you usually need on a golf course!!! The buggies are necessary and always included in the price. | | |
