One
of the classic Italian courses, designed by Cotton & Harris and
built in 1959, the golf club is situated on splendid rolling countryside
with marvellous sweeping panoramic views across the surrounding hills
and plains. Its layout is constantly being up-dated and in recent years,
it has played host to the Italian Amateur Championships many times as
well as to a great number of top level professional competitions. The
smart and elegant clubhouse blends in well with the surrounding
countryside and is the ideal place to sample the refined cuisine of the
club restaurant, which has been named amongst the top ten club
restaurants in Italy on more than one occasion. In addition, the club
boasts an attractive outdoor swimming pool and a well-equipped
children’s corner. In 2000, Peter Alliss made some changes to the
course.
Comment read on the Peugeot’s Guide
For
centuries, Bologna has been one of the top cities for students and
although not one of Italy’s leading tourist destinations, there is no
shortage of significant landmarks and museums. It is also one of the
country’s top areas for food and drink.
If we add to this the region’s industrial activity and that of the
neighbouring city of Modena, then the scarcity of golf courses might
come as something of a surprise.
Opened some fifty years ago, this course was laid out by C.K. Cotton and
John Harris over rolling terrain at the foot of the Apennines. Its
overall shape is reminiscent of British inland courses, with greens well
protected by bunkers and nothing particularly original about the layout
as a whole. Your certainly wouldn’t come here just for the thrills of
striking visual beauty, but the moderation in the layout of hazards
makes this a pleasant course for almost every player. Only the very best
might rue the absence of a tougher challenge
