0 S N Carrer del Pirineu2 courses, "Links" & "Forest", 20 min from house
Glen's view:
I would recommend Emporda Forest course, it's close, the holes are varied and interesting and the course is well maintained. The pine trees make for a picturesque setting, offer shade in hot weather but require some controlled directional hitting at times. The clubhouse has been recently refurbished, has a nice atmosphere and a restaurant/cafe overlooking the course which is good for coffee & croisants before golf and drinks or lunch after. I have not played the links course, which has no trees, but quite a bit of water to deal with I believe.

Slightly less expensive than Emporda, 20 min from house.
Glen's view:
Pals course is similar to Emporda Forest but many of the fairways are very narrow and lined with Pine trees so some holes require a fairly high degree of accuracy off the tee. I am a 16 H/C and enjoy this challenge but higher handicappers may find this frustrating unless you can hit straight. Water comes into play on 2 holes. Green fees are lower than other courses and there are discounts at off-peak times and for seniors. Hire clubs in 2023 were brand new Calloways. As well as buggies, they have single person scooters if you are a 3-ball and want to ride rather than walk.

Glen's view:
Golf d'Aro is nestled away in the hills and has some great views from much of the course The hotel is more traditional/rustic but has a nice atmosphere. It is cooler up in the hills than down by the coast so it is a good location in hot weather.
There is a very good restaurant within 10 minutes from the golf club - Can Roquet . com
