AROEIRA's 18-hole, 6,750-yard course has been acclaimed by international golf writers as among the best in Europe - a test of skill and source of enjoyment that draws out every club in the bag to meet the challenge of long and lush fairways set within undulating forests of umbrella pines, big greens moulded around extensive lakes. In addition, AROEIRA boasts what must be one of the best practice grounds in Portugal, of the same turf as the course - the hybrid "Tifton 419" brought from Georgia - which provides among the best fairways in golf. AROEIRA, also enjoys a fine restaurant that is a source of attraction to golfers and non-golfers alike. AROEIRA is Portugal's best-kept secret. It is a paradise within easy reach of the centre of the capital, and tourists who present the form attached, duly completed, are welcomed as visitors. Aroeira 2 |
Twenty minutes from the centre of Lisbon in a rich pine forest verging on the white sands of the Atlantic
coast is AROEIRA, the Lisbon Country Club's new 900-acre golf estate which, together with its fine stables, luxurious
private beach installations and tennis courts, is surely the most attractive development of its kind in Portugal.|

The Montado Golf Club with 107 ha area, is situated near the magnificent Castle of Palmela, a 5 min.
car trip from Setúbal and 35 from Lisbon. In creating this golf complex, our aim has been to make a course
where top championships could be played and would also give maximum enjoyment to club players of all abilities.
Technically exciting and with flexible playing options for many holes, there is a stimulating mixture of rolling
terrain combined with magnificent woodland. More advanced players will find the course offering them tremendous
challenge for heroic play - but be warned! The penalties will be high if the gambles do not succeed. Conservative
players taking a softer option may also find that their second shots provide more challenge than they had antecipated...
you will decide how you wish to play the holes. This 18 hole golf course par 720 has a Club House with restaurant
and all confort for members and clients of the Montado Golf Club.
Remote and wildly beautiful, set on the edge of a nature reserve, with the glistening sea and white
sand constantly in view and with the sea breezes gently whispering in the tops of the pine trees, it is difficult
to imagine a more relaxing and perfect place to play golf. The clubhouse has been skilfully constructed in rustic
style among the pine trees. It is as comfortable and welcoming as the Potuguese staff and has an excellent bar
and restaurant. Accommodation is available one mile from the course in well-appointed hotels whose modern appearance
is rather out of place in such an out-of-the-way setting. But the amenities and quality of service are first class.
When Bobby Jones stated the case for fine golf courses, he was talking forty years before Tróia was conceived,
yet he may well have been describing the reality of Tróia today. Quite simply it presents golfers of varying
abilities with the opportunity to gain rewards for their own level of skills, presents exciting possibilities and
demands exacting performance for the best results. All this in the most perfect setting.
