LA CAÑADA GOLF CLUB

La Cañada Golf Club – Sotogrande’s Classic & Inclusive Golf Destination ⛳🌿

🍷 Why We Love It

La Cañada Golf Club is one of the most beloved and historic golf courses in Sotogrande — and the whole Costa del Sol. Founded in 1982 as a non‑profit association with a mission to promote golf to everyone, it proudly manages the first public golf course in Spain, welcoming players of all backgrounds and skill levels.

⛳ Course Highlights

• 18 Holes (Par 71): The course combines entertaining, not overly long fairways, fast greens, large wooded sections and spectacular Mediterranean views, making it perfect for golf lovers who also appreciate nature and scenery.
• Legendary Design Duo: The first nine holes were designed by British architect David Thomas and the second nine by American legend Robert Trent Jones Senior, giving the layout both strategic variety and classic quality.
• Great Practice Facilities: La Cañada boasts a 250‑metre driving range, two putting greens and an approach zone — ideal for warming up or focused training before your round.
• Accessible & Welcoming: Unlike some of the area’s private clubs, La Cañada is public and inclusive, with affordable green fees and a system that lets visitors plan their rounds easily — members and guests alike.

👶 Golf School & Community Spirit

• Renowned Golf School: The club has one of the most respected golf schools in Andalusia, with 300+ students and a long history of nurturing young talent.
• Adapted Golf Pioneer: La Cañada was an early adopter of adapted golf programmes, offering weekly coaching for more than 60 disabled golfers, making the sport truly accessible for all.
• Social Atmosphere: More than a course, La Cañada is a community hub where families, locals and visitors mix, play, share stories and enjoy the relaxed vibe that’s part of Sotogrande’s charm.

🍽️ Clubhouse & Surroundings

• Club Restaurant: The clubhouse restaurant serves quality Andalusian cuisine with panoramic views of the River Guadiaro and the Mediterranean, making it a perfect stop after your round.
• Scenic Location: Set in the heart of the Costa del Sol golf paradise, La Cañada’s terrain winds through Mediterranean vegetation and offers lovely sightlines across hills and sea.

📏 Access & Practical Info
