This is a short nine hole
course which is visually very attractive coupled with a challenging
nature. It is ideal for practising with short irons
This is a short course with nine holes, all of them Par 3, designed by
David Thomas. His most famous project is the ‘Brabazon
Course’ at The Belfry, near Birmingham, England. That course
has had the honour of hosting the Ryder Cup no less than three times,
in 1985, 89 and 93. The world’s most important golfing event,
this is a biennial meeting of European and U.S. teams.
Many golfers will be surprised that a
course just 970 metres long could be so complete and challenging, a
real test for champions. In order to play this course to Par
(27), you will face a series of obstacles from the first right through
to the final hole. The distance and the difficulties posed by
these Par 3 holes varies, but number 11 is the longest at 161 metres.
The shortest is hole number 3, covering just 70 metres.
In addition, Vale de Milho, situated
near Carvoeiro, is visually a very attractive course, with waterfalls
and wonderful views over the sea.
So, if you want to enjoy yourself,
practice your short iron shots and, at the same time take in the
beautiful and relaxing landscape, then Vale de Milho will not
disappoint you.
