Circolo Golf Villa d'Este
Circolo Golf Villa d'Este
Circolo Golf Villa d'Este is one of Italy's oldest and most prestigious golf clubs — a parkland course opened in 1926 on the moraine hills above Lake Como, designed to complement the legendary Villa d'Este hotel on the lake. The course winds through ancient chestnut and birch forests with views of the Brianza hills and, on clear days, the snow-capped Alps.
The course is shorter by modern standards, but its natural beauty, historic character, and association with the legendary Villa d'Este hotel make it one of Italy's most sought-after tee times. The opening and closing holes beside the club's historic facilities are among the most evocative in Italian golf.
Course Highlights
Nearly a century of golf history in one of Europe's most beautiful lake districts — a genuine classic course.
Ancient chestnut and birch trees create a cathedral canopy on the mid-round holes — cool, quiet, and extraordinarily beautiful.
Designed to complement the legendary Villa d'Este hotel — a round here followed by dinner on the lake terrace is unforgettable.
On clear days, the Alps are visible from elevated positions — a backdrop that transforms ordinary shots into memorable moments.
