3 nights at the Albergo dell Agenzia with breakfast and 1 green fee (GC La Margherita)

There are two golf complexes thirty kilometers south of the center of Turin which are distinct yet complementary, for a total of 36 holes in all: the Golf Club I Girasoli and the Golf Club La Margherita. The latter regularly hosts national level competitions and championships. Designed by Marco Croze and Giorgio Ferraris, the 18-hole course, a par 72, it is the complex’s pride and joy. Continuous improvements and constant maintenance have taken it to such a high level of excellence that several editions of the Alps Tour, a third-tier professional circuit, have been hosted there and it was included among the 30 best clubs in Italy. The course demands good technique, but is enjoyable to play even for golfers with high handicaps, as long as they find the right motivation to improve their levels. 20 cozy guestrooms are available inside the complex. The position is ideal as it can be easily and quickly reached, due to its convenient location close to the Carmagnola exit on the Turin-Savona motorway. Technical Details Course : 18 holes, Par 72, 5840 meters Architect : Marco Croze & Giorgio Ferraris Topography : a little hilly, large fairways, a lot of water obstacles Special features : very varied course, which represents a real challenge at all game levels Pro’s Comments Don’t miss this 18-hole course. Just difficult enough with small and steeply sloping greens, the Margherita leaves no room for lapses in concentration. On the first nine holes, allow me to mention Hole 5, a long par 5 with a water hazard on the first shot and greens that slope steeply toward the fairway. Hole 7, a par 4 with a peninsula green with frontal water where it is very important to place the first shot. On the second nine, the very long Hole 16 par 5 with an out of bounds on the right and water on the left on the second and third shots, and Hole 18 par 4 which is great fun and gives powerful players the opportunity to decide whether to risk passing over a water hazard located 230 meters from the tee so as to have a comfortable approach shot to the pin. You must try it.
