Like several of the courses on the NCG Top 100 European Golf Resorts list, Bogogno is the proud home to two 18-hole courses - the Conte Course and the Bonora Course. Both play as Par 72s, and have their own challenges. The Conte is more of a links design, while the Bonora is the parkland challenge.

The Conte Course is a Par 72 championship course which has a links-style design to it. With wide open spaces, large lakes and wild rough away from the fairway, the Conte sure has a bite to it.

That bite also comes in the form of the course sitting at more than 7,050 yards from the championship tees, but the views of the Monte Rosa massif might just ease the pain. The course has been used as a Q School venue on the DP World Tour, as well as hosting the Vagliano and Junior Vagliano Trophies in 2017.

The Bonora Course is the second course at Bogogno, but it is no easy ride. It is a touch longer than the Conte Course, at 7,100 yards from the tips, but plays as a parkland design instead of the links feel you get with the Conte Course. 

The course was designed to include the hilly area of the region, which is surrounded by streams and woods, for a proper parkland feel. There are two par-5s in the opening three holes, with the hardest hole on the course then coming at 4. A tough start to a round on the Bonora.

The Bogogno Golf Academy has been a part of the Bogogno Golf Resort since the start of the millennium. The Academy itself is the home to an incredible driving range and short game area, and also provides tuition for golfers who are looking to improve.

The driving range has 60 tees in total, with 48 on one side and 12 on the opposite end. 40 of those, including the 12 on the opposite side, are grass tees, with a further 20 matted tees, eight of which are covered.

The Bogogno Golf Academy also has a double training green, with a variety of different targets. That allows for a range of pitches, chips and bunker shots to be practised. Located right opposite the clubhouse, the training area consists of 36 holes, with all types of slope angles, arranged so that they can all be played at once.

In terms of tuition, the five-man team of Fabian Barrio, Carlo Zaretti, Andrea Ferrario, Simone Truchet and Agustin Bardas are on hand to provide tuition and coaching. Lessons can be given in Italian, Spanish, English and French, to accommodate a range of golfers visiting the resort.

The accommodation offering at the Bogogno Golf Resort comes in the form of an eco-friendly hotel. Built using recycled materials and with a low environmental impact, the hotel opened in 2014. 

The hotel has 80 rooms which come in a range of forms. There are Comfort Rooms, which are the standard at the Bogogno Hotel. Deluxe and Premium Rooms are the next level above, while the hotel is also the proud home to nine Suites.

Deluxe and Premium Rooms, along with Suites at Bogogno, all come with their own private patio or balcony, while all of these rooms look directly onto either the finishing hole of the Bonora Course or the hotel’s swimming pool.

The Spa opened in 2014 as well, as a part of the hotel structure. This spacious and relaxing part of the resort is divided into two areas for guests to relax - the Wellness Programs area and the Massages and Treatments area. 

In the wellness section of the spa, there are plenty of options to help guests relax and rejuvenate themselves. There is a steam bath, Finnish sauna, vitarium bio sauna, mountain shower, crushed ice fountain, infrared sauna and more.

There are also a range of massages and treatments on offer from FC Rehab and Wellness, which is the Spa’s trusted partner. From sports massages, to wellness treatments, the team can provide all sorts of massages to help guests recover and de-stress.
