Golf & Gourmet in Portugal

While the Algarve coastline is the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about a golfing holiday in Portugal, this slightly off-the-beaten-path itinerary takes you to the emerging star of Portuguese golf — the Lisbon coast. The Atlantic shoreline has several awe-inspiring courses such as Oitavos Dunes, Penha Longa, and Praia D'El Rey — all bound to keep you spellbound.

But before you hit Lisbon, you'll start at the UNESCO World Heritage city of Porto, famed for its many port wine lodges, higgledy-piggledy medieval town centre, and charismatic locals. Stay at The Yeatman (a luxury wine hotel with a 2-Michelin-star restaurant) and then move to the Ritz-Carlton Penha Longa in the Sintra hills — with Michelin-star dining, a Douro Valley cruise, and a fado show included.
