golf valley, as this part of the Costa Del Sol has become known, offers many well-known courses; most of which have championship status. The apartment is situated on the La Quinta Golf & Country Club which is recognised as being one of the most prestigious courses in the area.

another 20 courses are less than half-an-hour away from the apartment, or more still along the coastline between Malaga and Sotogrande. You will be spoilt for choice whatever your ability and handicap.

la quinta offers the Championship 27-hole Golf Course (made up of 3-interconnecting courses) for the experienced golfer; and a Golf Academy for the starter or improving golfer. Details can be found at www.laquintagolf.com or 0034 952 762 390.
