Vilamoura Old - a Dom Pedro Golf Collection Golf Course, Algarve

Home » Vilamoura Old Course – Dom Pedro Golf Collection

Overview

The Old Course, Vilamoura is part of the Dom Pedro Golf Collection

One of the oldest golf courses in the Algarve and the first to open in the famous Vilamoura golf region, the Grand Dame of Portuguese golf is simply a classic. Book your tee time and take in the atmosphere amongst rolling the pines for the highlight of your golf trip to Portugal.

Situated in the heart of Vilamoura a mere 20 minute drive from Faro airport, this Frank Pennink designed parkland style layout is one of the oldest in the region and renowned all over the golfing world.

Often described as the Grande Dame of Algarve courses, it meanders throughout impressive pine trees – the principal hazard – over gently undulating natural terrain. Although it opened in 1969, the course was completely renovated and modernised 27 years later although no major changes were made to the magnificent layout.

In addition to raising the Vilamoura Old Course to new heights of quality, an attractive new clubhouse and adjacent putting green were also built at that time. As with all Vilamoura courses, environmental protection practices are strictly adhered to by means of detailed management systems in line with guidelines established by ISO 14001 standards, Green Globe and Committed to Green programmes.

This is one of the courses in Portugal that will always stay in the memory of visiting golfers.
