Calanova Golf Article

Calanova Golf Course, La Cala is perfectly positioned in the hills of La Cala and is a noteworthy addition to the handful of courses making up the La Cala/Mijas areas new ´Golf Valley´.

There are half a dozen courses and two luxury hotels in this 5,600 acre green zone, with six more courses to come. It is a golf haven that will soon have the highest concentration of golf courses anywhere on the Costa del Sol, an ideal location just a short drive from Malaga airport, ten minutes from Marbella and next to La Cala village which was once a small fishing village and though it retains much of its Spanish character, it is now a busy holiday destination.

Calanova´s 18 holes were designed by Aymerich Golf Managemant, Europe´s leading golf course development and management company.

Aymerich has made the most of Calanova´s natural surroundings and has come up with a course that medium and low handicap players will find is a pleasure, yet challenging, to play. Strategically placed bunkers and lakes populate the course and it´s hard to believe this green and tranquil sanctuary is just five minutes from the busy village of La Cala.

Calanova Golf Course is a diverse 72 par course, with par4 holes from 225 to 405 metres; their are six holes with doglegs to the left, five with doglegs to the right and seven straight holes four of them sloping downhill.

Aymerich Golf Management seems to have designed a course that is very well integrated in the natural surroundings and offers some degree of risk. But weekwnd golfers take note, there are no tortuous holes, the sort that make you want to call it a day and head straight for the clubhouse for a drink!
