Around D.C. & Baltimore
The most notable course in Washington, D.C. is the Congressional Country Club, home to multiple U.S. Open championships and a sanctuary to U.S. Presidents, Senators, Congressman, top government officials, wealth creators, oil barons and other members of Washington's elite. On our golf trip across Baltimore and Washington DC we also visited a fabulous Stay & Play golf resort, The Golf Club at Lansdowne, home to two 18-holes championship courses created by world-renowned course designers Robert Trent Jones and Greg Norman.

Golf Son Gual is home to a course frequently rated the No.1 layout on the holiday island of Mallorca. Opening for play in 2007, this Thomas Himmel design combines the openness of a links-style layout with the stylish bunkering and not infrequent water hazards more typically associated with parkland courses.
Son Gual is located just a few kilometres from Palma (Mallorca). Palma's Old City shows clear influences from the city's Arab past.
