Less than an hour from Barcelona, 20 minutes
from the Costa Brava coastlines and 5 minutes
from Girona Airport, PGA Catalunya Resort makes
for the perfect Spanish golf getaway.
The history of PGA Catalunya, ranked 2nd in Spain, 3rd in Europe
and, most recently, ranked 88th in the world, is as extraordinary as
the naturally beautiful landscape from which its two golf courses
have been created.
The story begins in 1992 when PGA European Tour board member
and former tournament professional Ángel Gallardo was asked to
look at the possibility of developing a purpose-built golf course in
Spain. It was on this 300-hectare estate that Gallardo instantly saw
the potential for what he believed could be one of the greatest golf
courses in the world. With the help of European Tour golf legend
Neil Coles, the Stadium Course took shape.

When PGA Catalunya opened in 1999, it immediately hosted the
Sarazen World Open, won by Thomas Bjorn, and the Spanish Open
in 2000 and again in 2009. Colin Montgomerie, who competed in
the Spanish Open, told Gallardo that it was an outstanding golf
course – and numerous golf magazines agreed, immediately
ranking it among Top 10 Courses in Europe.
The Tour Course opened to acclaim in 2005 as an enjoyable,
generous golf course, ideal for resort play, and played co-host
several times to the European Tour’s Qualifying School Finals
alongside the Stadium Course.
As a PGA European Tour Course, a name synonymous with
the highest quality golf courses, professional services and
outstanding facilities, PGA Catalunya does not disappoint.
The Group currently comprises a pan-European network of
member venues, each offering a distinct challenge to golfers
while sharing the same dedication to customer satisfaction.
Discerning golfers everywhere can share the experience at
any one of these member venues.

A real masterpiece designed by Ryder Cup star
Neil Coles and Spanish golf legend Ángel Gallardo,
this spectacular, impressive course has been ranked
among the 10 Best European Golf Courses since
its opening date. Originally designed for high-level
competitions, the Stadium Course has several
different tee boxes and multiple pin positions for
the enjoyment of all types of amateur players.
Each hole provides a range of different sensations and the ideal
combination of lakes, bunkers, tee boxes and huge greens
encouraging player concentration throughout the game.
It provides a constant challenge for true golf lovers.
The superb natural landscape surrounding the course enhances
the experience commanding remarkable views at each turn.
A must-see is the signature 13th hole that offers a breathtaking
vista of the Montseny Massif.

Players who feel daunted by the level and precision
required by the Stadium Course are given a second
opportunity to demonstrate their talents on the
Tour Course. Set amongst lakes and pine trees,
the Tour Course is a shorter, yet equally enjoyable
Ángel Gallardo and Neil Coles creation designed to
challenge players of all levels.
Most holes on this course have wide fairways and bunkers placed
strategically around the greens, where less-than-perfect shots are
forgiven. Risk-taking players are also rewarded, especially on the
Par-5 holes. This unique course encourages players to use all their
skills and complete range of clubs.
The challenges are born through its status as the resident course
for the PGA European Tour Qualifying School.

PGA Catalunya Resort’s stunning clubhouse
unites simplicity, functionality and elegance. Opened
in 2008, the building was created by leading Catalan
architects Francisco and Damián Ribas. The building’s
ability to blend with and enhance its natural setting
and offer remarkable balcony vistas was fundamental
in its design.
The large member’s lounge with its bar and spectacular fireplace
provides a private space where members can relax in elegant
surroundings. With a designer-stocked Pro Shop, a well-reviewed
bistro and function rooms available to host events and social
occasions of up to 100 guests indoors, the clubhouse is the hub
of the resort.
