| |
A 17th century beautiful Country Relais in the heart of the Chianti countryside, the Golf Relais has an ideal position bordering the famous Firenze Golf Club, the oldest golf course in Tuscany, established in 1934. It is also on the Chianti route just 7 km from Florence city centre, and surrounded by beautiful vineyards. A splendid swimming pool is available for all guests. The suites are on the first floor of the old palazzo which has been tastefully restored. Special care was given to the finishing touches. All rooms and suites are large and air-conditioned and have been finely restored with Tuscan antiques to welcome the guests. En suite bathroom with bath and shower in all rooms.
A bus shuttle is available to take you to the the city centre of Florence and back if you don't want to drive. We can also recommend visiting the many historic old villages and tasting the Chianti wine in the many private cellars. (You're welcome to attend a vineyard tour and wine tasting during your stay). At night, after a day of golf, you will be sipping a glass of wine in the veranda of the park.

Le Pavoniere |
|
|
|
| |
|
|
Le Pavoniere golf club was designed by Arnold Palmer and inaugurated in September 1986. Built on land so dear to Lorenzo de Medici, among fields and water pools developed during the Renaissance period, the club house is situated within a magnificent eighteenth century villa. The 18 hole course is demanding and the club organizes "green weeks" consisting of golf clinics, golf competitions and cultural and gastronomic excursions. A round of golf can be combined with the pleasure of an unforgettable visit to Florence and Prato.

If you look at the scorecard you might think at first that this is an easy course because its length is "only" 5,741 meters. But watch out! Difficulties on golf courses are not just measured in metres. The Firenze Golf Course is a natural course designed and built in 1934 in the Chianti hills and it exploits the natural characteristics of the Tuscan landscape: the cypress and olive trees, the undulations that follow the magnificent scenery, the small greens which are often well-defended. These are the obstacles that the golfer comes up against on a course which is part and parcel of Italian golfing history and severely tests players of all levels.

The Montecatini golf course is set in the splendid surroundings of the Tuscan hills; the course has really highlighted the natural beauty of the place without damaging it. The course has managed to integrate the natural obstacles (lakes, streams, woods, ditches) with the natural undulations already there, creating an amazing course. The numerous dog-legs need an exact understanding by the player and they are particularly suitable for those who like a clear view of the whole course. The greens have the same features as the course, and are just as tricky.

The 18 hole par 72 course was designed by Baldovino Dassù and Alvise Rossi Fioravanti and built to USGA standards. Opened for play in 1995, it was immediately recognized by the popular Italian magazine "Il Mondo del Golf" as the best new golf course in Italy, and it has been building an international reputation as one of the finest in Italy. It was recently selected by "Condè Nast Traveller" for its "Hot List" as "The best Golf Club", ahead of the likes of the K Club in Ireland and the Greenbrier in the USA. The course is 6.397 metres long, 5091 from the Ladies Tees, and 6519 meters or 7139 yards from the Championship Tees. Poggio dei Medici has also been the home of the Ladies Italian Open from 1999 to 2003.
