Torrequebrada Golf Course

Torrequebrada is reputed to have been one of the favourite courses of Bing Crosby, and we admit he must have had quite good taste. Situated just out of Benamadena it is well located if you staying in the Fuengirola to Torremolinos area and looking to add a top quality course in to your itinerary without travelling to far.

Although not overly long the course is a tough test of golf at all levels - it has previously hosted the Spanish Open.

A large amount of real estate development has spoilt its views over the past few years but this is made up for by the variety of trees and shrubs on the course. The greens and generally quality of the course has shown a big improvement with the new management over the last couple of years. The management has also changed its direction and is now very customer friendly.

golf courses Very few of the holes let you just drive without thinking - although the fairways are quite forgiving, the course is complicated by a number of dog legs, elevated tees, ravines and water hazards. Most of the holes are quite fair except for maybe the 2nd that has a big tree in front of the elevated green penalising any good tee shot.

Our favourite holes are the long par 5 12th from the back tees and if we're driving well the elevated par 4 5th with a good drive you can cut the corner - though nearly every hole has something. .Another challenging hole is the par 4 15th with an iron off the tee for position then 150m ( 165 yards) all carry to the green.

For nearest to the pin try the very short 3rd hole to give everybody a chance - don't be put off that Seve Ballasteros scored a 7 here. For the longest drive the long par 5 12th.

The changing rooms are excellent and the club has a nice bar terrace over looking the 18th green. There is also a bar on the 11th tee and a drinks buggy.

golf courses Definitely one of our favourites at the end of the round if you have a good score card you will come back.
