Javier Arana is revered among course architecture buffs and this is another fine example of his work - albeit only half the course.

Ulzama, which is located 11 miles north of Pamplona and 90 minutes' drive from Bilbao, was founded in the mid 60s.

It is a tree-lined parkland whose appeal is largely down to the design flourishes around the greens and the use of the often funky terrain by Arana.

The well-crafted holes are always in good condition too.

Arana laid out nine holes here in 1965 and a further nine were added at the end of the 1980s to make it one of Spain's best courses.

The original holes form the back nine and are widely regarded as the tougher of the halves, with the beech and oak trees requiring solid hitting and the greens a precise touch.
