Description

The oldest golf course in Italy overlooks Lake Como near the lakeside town of Menaggio. This is Menaggio and Cadenabbia Golf Club and the club’s Scottish roots are still well in evidence from the classic clubhouse which would not be out of place next to places like Muirfield, Merion, and Oakmont, especially the incredible locker room and showers which have to be the most powerful in Europe! The course itself is a time capsule, with little change over well more than a century of golf. Menaggio and Cadenabbia features old-fashioned narrow fairways, some fantastic uphill par 3s, smooth undulating greens, and a manageable length that still challenges good players but makes for a most enjoyable experience for all golfers. The scenery at Menaggio, as the club is more widely known, is off the charts. One could hardly imagine better mountain golf scenery whether Switzerland, the Canadian Rockies, or New Zealand. From the view of Lake Como with the rocky peaks of the Italian Alps beyond, to the majestic first hole and its magnificent downhill tee shot framed by the mountains, to historic buildings that dot the landscape, it is a quintessential Italian setting.
