Penina Championship Description

The Penina Championship Golf Course is the grandfather of all courses in the Algarve and a permanent living memory to its architect and active promoter, Sir Henry Cotton. It was originally paddy fields for rice growing that has been converted into a flat challenging course and especially for the stronger player. Something short of half a million shrubs and trees were planted in the conversion. As the fairways are flat Henry Cotton introduced strategically placed water hazards to catch the unwary long hitter.

Remembering 1970

In 19769,70,71 I played Penina with my father he passed away this year aged 94 and I wanted to play one more time the championship course, well I was surprised at just how rundown the golf course has become , sorry for this but I still felt the old magic .

The resort is very tired and much neglect on the course. The basis of the course is lovely but it needs some care and attention. The range balls were absolutely shocking and the practice area hadn’t been cared for as much as you’d hope.
Decent design, almost everything else poor

The bones of the course design are really quite good once you get through the boring opening stretch of up and down holes, the back 9 has some interesting holes The condition is rather poor however and not worth the green fee, I had read this on other reviews and felt I had to check it out for myself. I made the mistake so you don’t have to, go to one of the Pestana courses or better yet Palmares, this is not worth the money! It was surprising it could be in such poor condition given the quantity of workers on the course with 2 stroke engines blaring on every hole and racing around in buggies! Delusions of grandeur also come to mind, at half way 2 cans of beers cost €10, I’m not sure you could pay more anywhere in Portugal, a strange place stuck in the 80’s with 2040 prices

Course was no more than average. It was overpriced and the facilities were slightly dated. Greens however were very good
