Peralada is one of the most well-rounded resorts on the NCG Top 100 European Golf Resorts list, with a stunning golf course, world class spa and wellness centre, a castle and museum, casino, plenty of restaurants, and much more, giving something for all the family to enjoy during a stay.

Located in the northeastern corner of Spain, and just a half hour drive from the border with France, Peralada is in the Costa Brava, providing a gorgeous climate almost year round, which lends itself to winter golf. The golf course itself is glorious, and provides a stern test for golfers of all abilities. With a range of tees on offer to suit all levels, and the occasional water hazard here and there, Golf Club Peralada is a great place to play golf. 

The club also has its own Golf School, with a 9-hole Pitch & Putt and a driving range at the heart of it. The Pitch & Putt has holes ranging from 50 to 120 yards, and is the perfect place for beginners to learn the fundamentals of the game and the nuances that golf offers. The driving range offers several covered bays for play through all conditions, while there is also an approach green to allow golfers to practise their short game.

There is still plenty to do for those that are not into golf, though. The Hotel Peralada has several incredible activities behind its doors, including guided tours of the Castle of Peralada and the Carmel Convent. There is also a museum and library as part of the tour, while the gastronomy, casino and winery inside the Castle also provide magical evenings.

The Peralada Wine Spa is one of the most unique spas in the region, as the wine tradition is in use at the spa, based on wine therapy and the healing properties of the grape. A range of treatments are available with high quality skincare products, to help guests relax and unwind during a stay.

There literally is something for everyone at Peralada, from stunning golf, to incredible architecture and activities. It really is a place for the whole family.

Golf Club Peralada is blessed with its location. Nestled between the Costa Brava and the Pyrenees Mountains, Peralada blends into the natural surroundings, and it is a stern test of even the very best golfers. 

Several of the holes at Golf Club Peralada have water in play, with the first sighting of that coming on the tee shot at the 5th hole. The Par-71 lay-out features four tees on each hole to provide different lengths to suit golfers. At its longest, the course plays at more than 6,600 yards long.

8 and 9 is really where the water starts getting into your eyeline, though. The 9th is a short par-3, protected by a lake to both the back and the right of the green. There is also a bunker short of the green, making club selection absolutely vital. 

The course finishes with a stunning par-3. The 18th measures at more than 230 yards from the back tees, while both the red, blue and yellow tees are actually on islands in the lake itself. A par to finish and you’ll certainly be a happy golfer. 

Golf Club Peralada is also the home to the Peralada Golf School. There is a full-size two-level driving range, with the bottom half of the range being covered. Three putting greens as well as an approach green and practice bunker for short game skills are also a part of the club, to allow golfers to hone their short game abilities.

Not only that, but Golf Club Peralada also plays host to a 9-hole Pitch & Putt course, with holes ranging from 50 to 120 yards. Relatively flat, with no water hazards and a few bunkers dotted around the greens, the Pitch & Putt is the perfect place for golfers to practise their approach shots, and for beginners to start to learn the game and the nuances of short approaches, chipping and putting.

The Golf School is the home to professionals Paul Brown and Txomin Hospital, who both featured on the DP World Tour and European Challenge Tour during their careers. The pair are on hand to provide tuition, from short game lessons, to breaking down the fundamentals of the game for beginners. There are also kids classes to help children get into the beautiful game.
