In 2015 the “Weekender” feature has seen us travel
across the UK taking in cities including Cardiff,
Brighton and Bristol. As the year has moved on and the
temperatures have dropped we ventured to the slightly
warmer climates of France & Belgium but stuck to our
guns of finding good golf to play on that short haul
weekend platform.
As we put pen to paper we look out the window and see
the heavy fog rolling across the fields outside our offices
and the rain setting in, its mid-November and golf on
the local courses is looking doubtful this week.
With all this in mind we thought we’d look at a “Winter
Warmer Weekender” piece for this issue, but where to
go?…. Portugal.

The flight time to the capital Lisbon is a shade over
2 hours, we know that once you add in transfers and
travel time to the airports it’s a bit longer than that but if
you catch an early morning flight you can be teeing it up
before midday at one of the many magnificent courses
the Lisboa region has to offer.
Riba Golfe.
Just how good are you? Well if you want to find out if
you would make the grade at Q School then just head
30 mins east out of the city across the iconic Vasco da
Gama Bridge to Riba Golfe, the qualifying venue for the
European Tour.
