Belle Mare Plage Golf Club (Legend course)

3-PLUS: Good course - several memorable features; worthy of 3½ stars.

Est. 1994

Belle Mare Plage (Legend): Located in close proximity to the Constance Belle Mare Plage resort, you'll find its Legend and Links championship golf courses. Both lay down a testing, technical challenge for your game.

Situated directly opposite the resort, the classical, parkland Legend course is the flatter and tighter of the two, a layout that has recently hosted the professionals of the European Seniors Tour. Here you will need your A-game to score well, with the "A" firmly based on accuracy.

Laid out in an ancient deer reserve (you may still see some deer), the course is relatively flat and uncontoured, with shallow bunkering around the subtly sloping greens. Tightish tree-lined holes and an abundance of water hazards will continually demand excellent course management and accurate shot-making. The 506-metre par-5 4th is the longest hole and arguably the tightest, with water flanking both the left and right of the fairway.

As you carefully pick your way round this layout, there is not too much to see beyond the course, although an attractive and varied array of tropical trees and bushes line the holes inside the perimeter. A course that will be appreciated by the straight-hitting technician, rather than the wayward big-hitter.

Pick of the holes: the undoubted highlight of the Legend comes at the fabulous par-3 17th, where the course suddenly opens out onto a large lagoon, a corner of which you must cross with your tee shot.

Marco Simone Golf & Country Club

Marco Simone Golf & Country Club: With a clubhouse that might befit a Roman Emperor, and a golf course to match, you can be sure of a memorable outing at Rome's most talked about golf facility.

Jim Fazio's original layout was much changed to create a modern Ryder Cup course ... now one of the Eternal City's (and Italy's) most revered.
