We might have just found the best value golf resort in Europe.

It’s no secret that the game is becoming more expensive, fueled by a post-pandemic boom driving the costs of equipment, membership and green fees through the roof.

So, if ever there was a time to grab yourself a steal, it’s now.

And the answer to your prayers lies at Praia D’El Rey Resort on Lisbon’s Silver Coast.

The golf hotspot of Portugal is the perfect counter to rising prices and is home to two world-class golf courses ranked in Europe’s top 30.

Combine that with the stunning Marriott Hotel to make it one of Europe’s top ten golf resorts.

Here is the best part, though. What if we were to tell you that you can play three rounds of golf as part of a four-night stay at the five-star hotel from circa £380?

It sounds too good to be true, but we’re not kidding – green fees alone start from just £55 per person.

The championship course at Praia D’El Rey is the centrepiece of the resort and can be found only 50 minutes from cosmopolitan Lisbon.

It’s set along the pristine shores where you’ll find miles of golden beaches under the sun.

Designed by the renowned American golf architect Cabell B.Robinson, it provides a complete golf challenge courtesy of deep bunkers, sloping greens and sandy dunes.

Meanwhile, West Cliffs – pictured below – is an outstanding seaside links course that rolls over varying landscape and natural terrain.

Across 18 holes, it overlooks the ocean from a privileged and exclusive location.

Just an hour north of the capital city but West Cliffs is miles away from the pace of Lisbon, offering the chance to relax and explore one of Portugal’s best kept secrets.
