7 nights at Relais Sant'Uffizio with breakfast and 3 green fees (2x GC Margara & 1x GC Cherasco)

Founded in 1972 by Dr. Glauco Lolli Ghetti, today the Margara Golf Club is a renowned golf club both nationally and internationally. With two 18-hole championship courses, every year it welcomes tourists and professional golfers from all over the world. The oldest course, “Glauco Lolli Ghetti”, named after its founder, has a Parkland-type structure: it is surrounded by trees that are now imposing, has wide fairways that extend over the rolling hills of Monferrato and greens that put even the most experienced players to the test. The more recent “La Guazzetta” course, completed in 2006, is also 18 holes and has a more modern, links-style character, with wide bunkers that design the slopes and covers important distances. Margara has hosted 22 European Challenge Tours, 1 Italian Ladies Open and every year is the scene of several Italian National Championships. Technical Details Course : 18+18 holes, par 72/72, 6048/6176 meters Architect : Topography: Sometimes hilly landscape with some woods, sometimes flat Distinctive features: It has a varied topography that requires a good strategy from the player who must continually adapt his play to the landscape. Pro’s comments The two Margara courses have a great virtue. If you don’t face them from the furthest tees, they are entertaining and stimulating for all playing levels. The Glauco Lolli Ghetti 18-hole course hosted tournaments on the European Challenge Tour for 17 years and all the professionals have always given very positive reviews of the course. The amen corner (Holes 15, 16, 17,18) must be faced with great attention and respect: 4 very delicate holes that can ruin your score in no time. La Guazzetta is very long but also very wide except for Holes 10 and 11 where erring to the right is absolutely forbidden. A forest thick with water hazards is waiting there to receive your sliced shots. So be careful!!!!!

“Your putting green in the heart of the Langhe”, as the slogan of this dynamic and welcoming club goes, opened in 1982 where the Tanaro river meets the Stura. A marvelous position from a naturalistic (and enogastronomic!) perspective, but which risked compromising the club’s very existence due to the two floods in the mid-90s that almost destroyed the course. Having brilliantly overcome these difficulties also thanks to the able director, Corrado Graglia, the Golf Club Cherasco today is a landmark for golfers in search of a stimulating yet not too severe challenge, and those who also appreciate fine cuisine and wines. Indeed, the club is located in the Langhe hills, where the enogastronomic tradition is supreme: the best bottles of Barolo, Barbaresco, Nebbiolo, Dolcetto and Barbera here are accompanied by outstanding white truffles, hazelnuts, snails, exquisite cheese and the traditional recipes in which the local trattorias (and the clubhouse restaurant) vie with one another to win over palates. Designed in 1979 by architect Marco Croze, the 18 holes extend on two levels, one on flat land and the other in the hills, embraced by a picturesque park dotted with many ponds and thousands of trees, some of which are centuries-old, others planted more recently: pines, maples, hornbeams, and oaks create a diversified and demanding course that is, nonetheless, suitable for all types of players. Technical Details Course : 18 holes, Par 72, 6050 meters Architect : Marco Croze Topography : partly flat, partly hilly, a lot of water Special features : straight drives are an advantage, as the fairways are partly narrow Pro’s Comments Some of the holes at Cherasco are truly beautiful: one of these is Hole 13, the most complicated of the course: a long par 4 where the first shot must be well placed, then the second must be made towards a small split-level green with a frontal water hazard; for higher handicaps, I recommend that you play for a bogey and don’t make the mistake of aiming for the green from far away with the second stroke. Then in autumn, arrivals at the clubhouse are a celebration for the palate and the sense of smell, as clearly indicated in the previous lines.
