This course opened in 1976 and was designed by Pepe Gancedo masterpiece and is recognised as one of the most beautiful and well established courses on the Costa del Golf.
The Spanish Open ws held here in 1977. And although it is not a long course it is a test of skills for players of all levels with the Tee shot here being of prime importance. Wild drives
will loose you balls in the trees and woods, the rough, bunkers and water hazards are all very much in play at all times. Don't be fooled by the short 80 metre lenght third hole,
distance here should not be confused with the word easy, Seve Ballesteros scored a 7 here !!.
Torrequebrada was reputed to have been one of Bing Crosby,s favourite courses, Miguel Angel Jimenez practiced hitting many a ball here at the old practice range where his father worked, his brother is there most days teaching.
Although a lot of development has taken place around the course which inevitably has taken away some of the views, this course still
manages to retain its intimacy amongst the thousands of established trees which align and border every hole.
