The 18 hole golf course was designed by Fausto Nascimento and opened for play in 2006. While not on the major golf tours circuit, this course has played host to many local tournaments, including the Torneio de Golf Algarve.

Boasting a full range of facilities including a pro shop, bar, and restaurant serves traditional Portuguese and International cuisine, vegetarian and diabetic meals.

Where is Pestana Silves?

Situated at the foot of the Monchique mountain in the Algarve. Located in-between the popular towns of Lagos and Albufeira, the course is easy to reach. You can choose to base yourself in one of these places or use the Pestana Group's accommodation.

Thanks to being just an hour away from Faro Airport, the golf course is an international venue, and it’s possible to catch direct flights from many European cities and others around the world.

Take in the tremendous mountain views, palm trees and olive groves plus the surrounding cork and citrus farms, whilst on your stay.

You will be taken aback by some of the holes on Pestana Silves golf course, and there are surprises around every corner. This is not the most straightforward golf course you will play in Portugal, and those with a low handicap will find it a great challenge while those with a high handicap will enjoy the test of finishing under par.

The first hole sets the tone for the round, and you have water on both sides of the fairway which come into play from the tee for long ball strikers. Getting the ball on the tee's fairway is very important as the rough can be tough to escape. The course can give the feeling of being open thanks to some wide fairways, which tempts you to get out the driver but leave the fairway and trouble awaits.

Holes 5 and 13 live long in the memory, and the same lake comes into play on both. On the 5th hole, the water is to the left on the green approach whereas, on the 13th hole, the water forms a dogleg to the left and can prove tricky to avoid and leave a good angle to the green.

Pestana Silves is well looked after, and you are guaranteed right playing conditions all year round, making it a great choice as part of a Portugal golf holiday.
