Golf Course
About the Course
This is a truly magnificent course, which is routed thoughtfully across gently rolling terrain and through mature pine and eucalyptus trees. The snow-capped Taurus Mountains provide a provocative backdrop especially as the course is bathed in hot sunshine for the vast majority of the year.
The 18 hole Championship Course, designed by Ryder Cup Player David Feherty and Seniors Tour Player David Jones, has played host to the PGA European Turkish Seniors Open in 1996 and 1997.
Handicap Certificate
Any golfer wishing to play on the Championship Course must have a handicap certificate. It is therefore advisable to bring your certificate or a copy of it with you. The club reserves the right to prevent anyone who cannot provide proof of their handicap from playing on the Championship Course. The maximum handicaps are 36 for men and 36 for ladies.
