Veneto was part of the Roman Empire until the 5th century AD. Later, after a feudal period, it was part of the Republic of Venice until 1797. For centuries, Venice ruled over one of the largest and richest maritime republics and trading empires in the world. After the Napoleonic Wars and the Congress of Vienna, the Republic was annexed by the Austrian Empire until it merged with the Kingdom of Italy in 1866 as a result of the Third Italian War of Independence. In addition to Italian, most inhabitants speak Venetian, which is divided into five varieties. The Veneto region, located in the north-east of Italy, is a highly sought-after destination due to its main tourist attraction: Venice. A golf holiday in the region is very easy, as there are international airports in Verona and Venice. Almost all golfers combine a visit to Venice with a round of golf. Golfing in Veneto is amazing because courses are built in a great scenic setting overlooking, for example, the Dolomites, Lake Garda and the Adriatic Sea. Veneto boasts many exciting, challenging courses, rich in tradition, all of which respect the peculiarities of golf. There are 28 golf clubs in the region, most of which offer a relaxed atmosphere. Special courses: Golf della Montecchia and Golf Club Ca’Amata. In addition, there is a variety of beautiful golf resorts in the area. In Veneto you can play golf all year round. From May to October conditions are excellent.

Hotel Terme Bristol Buja – Golf & Wellness in the heart of Abano Terme A golf holiday in Italy is not only about great courses, but also about a hotel that welcomes you as soon as you step off the fairway. This is exactly what makes the Hotel Terme Bristol Buja in Abano Terme so special: here, a passion for golf, thermal wellness and Italian dolce vita come together in perfect harmony. Golfing in style – training facilities right at the hotel What immediately convinced me as a golfer was that the hotel has its own small practice area with a putting green, bunker and even a short 3-hole pitch & putt. Ideal for taking a few swings before your round or practising your putting in the evening. What’s more, the location is excellent: some of the best golf courses in Veneto are just a few minutes’ drive away – Golf della Montecchia, Golf Club Padova and Golf Frassanelle. Each course has its own unique character: from traditional and classic to modern and strategically challenging. Regeneration after your round – thermal baths, pools & spa Anyone who has played 18 holes knows how valuable regeneration is. The hotel scores with several thermal pools (indoor and outdoor), massage jets, underwater loungers and a comprehensive spa area. Whether it’s muscle relaxation in thermal water, a sports massage or a fango treatment – you will immediately feel your body winding down and recharging its batteries. Cuisine that gives golfers energy The cuisine is also a highlight. Start your day with a hearty breakfast ranging from fresh pastries and regional products to healthy options. In the evening, you can look forward to varied menus – light enough to ensure you are fresh on the course the next day, but with enough Italian flavour to give you that holiday feeling on your palate. Atmosphere & service The Terme Bristol Buja is located in a large park with lots of greenery – perfect for finding peace and quiet between rounds. The rooms are modern, comfortable and tailored to different needs. The service is particularly impressive: the staff are golf enthusiasts, organise green fees and transfers, and also take care of your equipment. Why the hotel is ideal for golfers Own practice facility directly at the hotel Short distances to the most beautiful golf courses in the Euganean Hills Extensive wellness and spa facilities for true relaxation Cuisine that combines enjoyment and lightness Service focused on golfers’ needs 👉 Conclusion: The Hotel Terme Bristol Buja is not just a wellness hotel with a golf option – it is a true retreat for golfers who want to combine perfect rounds on challenging courses with regeneration and the Italian way of life.

Golf Club Montecchia
Golf club page
03.08. — green fee per player: Green Fee 18 Holes (10:00)
The 27 holes of the Montecchia Golf Club wind beneath the 16th century castle belonging to Counts Emo Capodilista, in a course which is peppered with water hazards and which will not allow for distractions. The project bears the signature of English architect Tom Macauley in total compliance with the Anglo-Saxon school, giving proper importance to issues regarding the environment and the landscape. The gentle undulations of the holes fit in perfectly with the context of the typical lowlands interrupted by the ridges of the nearby Euganean Hills. The three courses, White, Red, and Yellow, feature many bodies of water and several tracts of uncultivated land with the aim of preserving nature. Hole 6 on the White course, a par 4 of 392 meters, offers the greatest difficulties due to the presence of a lake whose shoreline skirts the fairway along its left side, narrowing to where a bunker on the right and, worse yet, the out-of-bounds loom. Water accompanies the player on many other holes, at times timidly, at others more intrusively as with Hole 2 on the Red course, a par 3 of 172 meters where you must fly over the lake to reach the split-level green. Stopping by the clubhouse is an unavoidable pleasure. Created from the old rooms used for drying tobacco and the granary, it houses two excellent restaurants – ABC on the ground floor, the more informal of the two, and the Montecchia on the first floor, run by Erminio Alajmo, who boasts a Michelin star, and which are valid reasons enough to visit the club. Technical details Course: 18+9 holes, Par 72/36, 6078/3011 meters Architect: Tom Macauley Topography: flat and open, quite recent vegetation. Distinctive features: The course has not come to maturity yet, and the young trees reveal it. The difficulties of the course can be overpassed by those who control very well the drives. Pro’s comments A level course with large and welcoming greens that are always maintained excellently. Both professionals (stops on the European Challenge Tour have been played here several times) and players with high handicaps will be greatly satisfied with the Golf Club della Montecchia. All players regardless must pay great attention to Holes 11 and 17 on the championship course: two Par 3s with frontal water and well defended greens. Play them cautiously; a tiny error will cost you dearly.
