Play golf in Italy in the Lake Garda area and you'll visit Golf Club Villafranca. It was opened in the early part of the 1990’s and is situated in Villafranca close to the town of Sommacampagna near the southern tip of Lake Garda. Set in a quiet area of outstanding beauty the course winds its way through soft rolling and undulating terrain at the foot of the Custoza hill a popular wine growing region and which was once the site of an historical battlefield. Not that you should treat your golf in Italy as a battle!

The lush green surroundings hide it from the hustle and bustle of the surrounding city life and main autostradas.

The course was designed by its president, Ferruccio Corrado Bertolini and with its par of 68 and length of 5193 metres it provides a stern but interesting test for any golfer on their golf in Italy trip, even though it is relatively short in length. Villafranca is a delight to play on your golf in Italy trip, and an easy walk as it is relatively flat but don’t let that fool you as there are plenty of trees to hinder the wayward shot.

When the course was first opened only 9 holes were built another 9 holes was then soon added and there are plans to build a further 9 holes which once opened will make this possibly the most important course for you to play golf in Italy, in the Veronese district.

The course is great for a trip to play golf in Italy as you can play all year round due to its mild climate and is a treat for any visiting golfer. There are great practice facilities at the club for the golfer who wishes to work on their game while here to play golf in Italy and there is a fabulous restaurant in the clubhouse which is a beautiful old red brick building with a very comfortable and relaxed atmosphere. The staff are friendly and accommodating which will add to the enjoyment of your day spent at this wonderfully traditional Italian golf club during your trip to play golf in Italy.
