Espiche Golf Course
Espiche golf course is located within a nature reserve and just five minutes from Lagos, Espiche Clubhouse & Golf is an eco-resort which has been perfectly integrated into the surrounding natural environment and offers a unique and authentic experience in the western Algarve.
Preservation, conservation and innovation of resource management are at the heart of Espiche Golf & Clubhouse. The 18 hole, par 72 golf course was designed to integrate effortlessly into the surrounding Algarve countryside and the indigenous flora and fauna of the area have been preserved, in keeping with the company ethos of nature preservation and conservation. This commitment to maintaining natural resources is one that we believe will allow Espiche Clubhouse & Golf to continuously contribute to a sustainable future.
The Espiche Golf Clubhouse, which is also home to the Gecko restaurant, has been awarded internationally for its architecture, design and environmental efficiency, in reference to both the choice of materials used for the building and in its resource management. The exceptional location of the Clubhouse, situated on top of a hill overlooking the resort, offers breathtaking views across the golf course and the nature reserve. The views, coupled with the exceptional quality of the food available, makes the Clubhouse a reference for both lovers of golf and those who value the tranquility and beauty of nature itself.

It was a pleasure to play at Espiche today. The course is in fine condition, the people. are
and as an extra present the expected rain did not arrive when we put on the course.
Certainly we will play Espiche again, during the rest of our stay in the Algarve.

Very challenging course, definitely better suited to low handicappers, but worth playing.

As we had to miss our original tee time due to illness, we expected to lose our round of golf. We were contacted via yourselves from Espiche to offer us to rebook without any extra cost. This was an unexpected and brilliant surprise.. When we played our round , the course was in a great condition considering the lack of rainfall and all the staff were very helpful. I will certainly play here again.

Jason Pierce

Bring lots of balls! Course was in good condition, although greens were a little sandy in places but generally rolled well. Course is very tight in places and if you are wide don’t even bother looking for your ball. Course is high up in the hills so exposed and very windy
Kim Bennett
2019-05-11
Absolutely superb golf course. Challenging in places but a fair test. It was also in excellent condition. The Club house is amazing and we were able to get a very pleasant breakfast. It was a little less busy than the Pestana courses courses we are playing for the rest of the week, which was good. Will return and would highly recommend.
Dr. Markus Feidicker
2019-04-14
nice golf course, but need a lot of balls since almost every ball not on fairway is lost due to bushes. Fairways very hard, so balls jumping all over the place. Nice clubhouse. Friendly personnel.
Vortmann

Top and challenging Course, unfriendly employess at the clubhouse, practice areas to far away -, Price For Token at the driving area unacceptable
Bill Young

Espiche is a fantastic golf course in great condition for January. Staff are friendly and make visitors very welcome.
Ian Brotherston
2018-12-04
A hidden gem. A thinking golfers course. It is wider than it looks but as it was so firm and there was little to no rough shots that were off line did find toruble. The greens are large, sloping and fast so do not get the wrong side of the hole. The course is in a relatively remote spot and in a beautiful spot. At the time of year we played (late November) it was also outstanding value for money.
Kevin Ephgrave
2018-10-26
Course played well. Always a test to remember which side of the fairway to hit given some of the undulations in play. Greens were good. Clubhouse and food/service still great. Overall the group enjoyed the day.
Alan Robinson
2018-09-09
Excellent course it's a challenge. Probably the best greens I've played all year. You have got to be straight. Club house is beautiful and food excellent.

Bernd Bachmann

Espiche has developed in recent years from an insider tip to a beautifully situated and well maintained golf course with a beautiful clubhouse. Very good price and performance ratio.
terry cotton
2017-04-07
Beautiful location and a lovely golf course in a wild and natural setting. Spectacular display of wild flowers. Very difficult due to the dense scrub lining all the fairways. Greens, however, were very poor compared to other venues played that week.
Smit
2017-03-06
Golf course looks very nice. Unfortunately a very dry and hard ground. The drives will go very far and the will end up in the rough or worse almost every tee shot. Also the good ones. :)
You are better of keeping the distance of your tee shot under the 200 meters. When you miss the fairway you will loose your ball. Next to the holes is very harsh terrain.
I might return to this course due to the challange and the friendly people and good service.
Tim Triglone

Lovely layout but very unfair at times.
Juha Tonttila

Too much waiting on the tee boxes
Graham Lucas
2020-03-06
Enjoyed this course, interesting hole variety and countryside views, but lost many balls as there is not much rough beside fairways and scrub is dense
Henk Van Derlit

We had an enjoyable round of golf today at Espiche.
The course is challanging, not always fair, but the greens are in good shape
Brian Trenbirth
2020-02-13
The course was in good condition but not quite as good as the last time we played in September. Although the greens did not look good they putted well and were fast. As usual the clubhouse facilities and food were excellent.
David McKee
2020-02-09
A tough course that makes you think about your next shot. The clubhouse was nice, and the views were superb!

Parcours joué le 06/02/20, Le parcours est dans un très bon état, les fairways sont propres et roulants. Les greens sont complexes par leurs taille, leurs différents de niveaux, L’entretien et la qualité "sable" des bunkers est exceptionnel. Ce parcours est vallonné, Piégeur ou la moindre erreur se paye cash. Le personnel, "accueil, club housse, starter, Marshall" est excellent , souriant et professionnel. Enfin un parcours qui n'est pas pollué par l’immobilier environnante. Le TOP.

This course was by far the best and most challenging we played in Portugal it was our 5th and last course. Palmares ran it close but this was more enjoyable. Everything was in pristine condition from tee to green. Staff were courteous and a pleasure to deal with. Will definitely play here again.

Friedly staff, relaxed setting; driving range a bit off-track; nice golf course, reasonably demanding but a bit on the very dry side; beautiful club house, superb terrace, nicest fish&chips - a must-try - no joke!
James Ridgway

Wonderful course, wonderful club house.
Robert Wood
2019-05-24
A tough, beautiful course, worth the effort to drive 10k inland. I am a good 8 handicapper and in the wind (which I guess is most days given it is close to a wind farm), it is a real test of accuracy. My wife loved it too
Pascal Plichta
2019-05-10
Tres bon acceuil. Terrain vallonné. Possible de le faire sans buggy. Fairways pas très larges.il faut être precis.
Chris Rudling

Great course, played three rounds in good condition, have to be straight off the tee as you could lose balls, will definitely be back to play it again.
Good club house, excellent service and food.

WINKELMANN Brigitte

The course was very dry and for this reason difficult to play (Balls bounced in every direction). Interessting layout; but the holes were obviously several days on the same place. Good value for 148 Euro incl. Buggy.

Phil Sharpe
2018-07-01
Always a tough golf course as it’s so narrow but one that is in absolutely great condition. An excellent clubhouse with stunning views and very friendly and helpful staff.
Would love it if the clubhouse restaurant brought back their old breakfast menu, the current one is far more limited for those that want to eat there before teeing off in the morning.

Really interesting and challenging course, very windy, in good condition. And not crowded.
Stephen Curley
2018-06-28
Fantastic clubhouse, staff & food. However the course, whilst in great condition, is unfair. The course needs some redesign to ensure that good shots are not punished
David Elcock
2018-06-24
Beautiful setting but in a strong wind the tightness of the course was demoralising
Gareth Toms
2018-06-18
Very nice golf course, a tough challenge and take a good number of golf balls
gerard kelly
2018-06-10
This is not a long course but has a high degree of difficulty.
Beautifully maintained without the use of any fertiliser. In a conservation area so chemical use prohibited. This means fairways do not have the rich green of course which use fertilisers and weed control agents.
I had read about the difficult rating of the course in advance so as my party of 7 are all mid teen handicaps we played scramble format for our 3 rounds. Really enjoyable. However I know it would have been dry challenging to play single stroke format. Beautiful clubhouse and brilliant staff.

Parcours magnifique et très bon accueil! Un parcours avec de nombreux trous à l'aveugle donc il faut un petit stock de balles. Très belle expérience ????
David Burton
2018-05-03
I like the course, quite tight in places but a good challenge and vegetation wild plants in colour in Spring made the course very attractive scenically.
Good, modern clubhouse centrally located on high point so there are good views of the course.
Darren Gatward
2018-05-01
Course is too severe / unfair in windy conditions, with firm sloping fairways the ball easily rolled into bushes that frame every hole with very narrow fairways on most holes. I lost 2 balls after hitting them down the middle of the fairway, while the 2 guys I played with who were 20+ handicappers must have lost more than 30 balls between them in one round. I won’t be be returning to this course again.
Stuart Armstrong
2018-04-27
The clubhouse and facilities are first class. Unfortunately the course is too hilly and off the fairway is dense bush making it almost impossible to find balls. We suffered from several lost balls as people around us did making our round 5 hours 30 minutes which is excessive for us. We will Unfortunately not choose this course again.
colin armitage
2018-04-16
Difficult golf course with only limited room for error. Not long but demands accuracy and even good shots can finish in unexpected places. It needs some control rough grass areas on the edge of fairways to limit the number of decent shots going into the rubbish - ball lost, expensive round. However it is set in a lovely spot in the countryside and a has pleasant clubhouse to return to. Staff polite as can be. Would definitely play again.
Tania Segers

Klaus Krausen
2018-03-20
Nice course in rural area. Almost no housing estates in surroundings. Friendly personal. Modern club facilities.
The course requires precise centered long play. Otherwise shrubs and bushes close along the fairways are fast
using up one's ball reserves.
H. Seifert
2018-03-14
All holes without any rough, balls run while hitting a fairway simply in the scrub, under this conditions combined with wind unfair course with little fun, friendly and helpfully staff and very good service in the club restaurant

Petrusch

The fairway was Brown and extremely fast. No ball stayed, precisely diven shots left the Palace. The roughs wäre dense. You need many balls.
Thomas Wicker
2018-03-05
A bit too far away from Vilamoura , but nice course, some blind holes, if you are not straight the ball is gone, greens were in bad conditions, better to use carts
Barry Summerfield
2018-02-01
Reception was prompt and efficient. The starter was very helpful. The course is quite tough and it is very easy to lose balls if you stray off the fairway.. The course was in good condition.

For the money I think this is the best course on the Western Algarve. A real challenge with plenty of different holes. The staff are really friendly - not like some of the "corporate" courses. Great day out.

Michael Hardman
2017-10-21
Course and greens in great condition. Not a course we would wish to play again as the fairways are too narrow with thick bushes catching anything but the straightest shots. In my view the fairways need widening and bushes removing. Until this is done and bushes removed from behind greens will not be a course for holiday golf or higher handicaps. Clubhouse and views great
Mark Barnish
2017-10-20
Had overbooked the golf course on the day (including a coach party of approx 40) so very slow, obtaining buggies we had booked was chaotic and staff seemed a bit overwhelmed

a quite difficult course as it is tight and unforgiving , it was windy when we played which made it even more difficult , if anyone is thinking of playing , use an iron of the tee for some holes or you will lose your ball.the course was in good condition and the green were fast .Buggies were available and they had a refreshment buggy .

Jeff Bull
2017-04-18
The best clubhouse in the Algarve. The greens were dreadful. The group of us actually thought the wrong grass had been planted with flower heads on some greens. Too many blind holes which made it extremely difficult for people who have never played it before. It was voted the worst of our four courses.
Chris Deakin
2017-03-06
Great golf course/club house with fantastic service although the course desperately needs some water or secondary rough so you don't spend all your time looking for your tee shots that have run through the fairway.
Overall experience very good.

Easy to find, excellent facilities. The reception staff were very helpful and friendly as were the starter and buggy operators. The drinks cart man was terrific and made sure he met up with us every 3/4 holes.
The course itself is very well kept and the greens well maintained.

Great for a quiet and fast round as it was very quiet. A true test for all levels.

Very disappointed as only able to offer us baguettes when we fished our round of golf

Difficult course to play and enjoy because of the fast fairways, slopes, lack of first cut of rough and proximity of the unplayable areas. May be more enjoyable the second time round and as the course matures. Best part of the day was the meal in the clubhouse after the golf.

The whole experience - from booking through to the transfers and golf - went very smoothly. The TeeTimes team were very helpful and I would certainly recommend their service.

Not very good would not recommend narrow fairways can be coped with but vegetation right up edge which balls run into and cannot be found very frustrating.

Terrible golf course. All players lost at least 10 balls, due to bad design. Will never play this course again

Lovely course...great staff. Deadly rough so need to hit straight every shot.

Nice course layout, nice holes, but no room besides the fairway. it is either fairway or a lost ball
will not play that course again

Espiche which we found not only difficult but unfair - not an enjoyable experience. And would be very reluctant to play the course again regardless of price.

Espiche Golf is a brand new course just North of Lagos. To get there you have to drive past Lagos and through the village of Espiche.
At the moment you will find there is only the course and a kind of check-in point, although a clubhouse is in the plans.
The 18 hole par 72 golf course is located on a hill and offers splendid views across Monchique mountains and is surrounded by the Algarve beautiful countryside. The holes have quite an interesting layout but perhaps due to the fact that it is still a very young course, with a limited investment, you go from fairway straight into the rough, which makes the ball search difficult. The course misses a generous 1st and 2nd cuts to prevent that from happening.
The course has quite a few blind holes, which is a bit of a disadvantage for those who tend to hit long drives because you simply have no clue of where the ball is going to land. The fact that it's almost always windy also doesn't help.
The greens vary a lot in shapes and sizes and are quite slopy, which make them very interesting, however they are also quite irregular because of the choice of grass, which in this particular case, doesn't grow in the winter. The good news is that the dry season is almost here and so there is a chance that this is a temporary situation.
This first group of golfers were with the Chez Carlos Golf Society and overall everyone thoroughly enjoyed it. It's not a championship course but it does provide a very pleasant experience, particularly with such a beautiful landscape of wild flowers as your backdrop. As Walter Hagen once said, 'never hurry, never worry, and always remember to smell the flowers along the way'.
