A quick reminder, lest we forget, that although we have one of Europe’s most prestigious courses right on our doorstep, the Murcia region of Spain is blessed with many other fine Golf courses. Here is a quick sampler of thirteen of the best in our area!
Stuart Thomas of Calida International Properties, has added his “star ratings” and some commentary below the tables! Stuart is a keen golfer, and a regular face on all the areas courses. I am sure you might have some comments on his remarks…we would love to hear them!
