Tuscany, Italy, August 2020: Italy’s Argentario Golf Resort & Spa, set in extensive grounds adjacent to a nature reserve (www.argentarioresort.com), is offering four and seven-night golf packages, ‘Let’s Swing’ for seasoned golfers and the ‘Golf Experience’ for absolute beginners this autumn from Euros 740 per person.
The five-star hotel in the heart of the unspoilt Maremma is the perfect place to hone your skills or take up the game for the first time as at this time of year you will be assured of some late Tuscan sun and warm, balmy weather creating ideal conditions for golf and lots of space in which to social distance with ease around the 77-hectare Resort.
The championship golf course and extensive, natural surroundings of Argentario
In addition to a championship golf course, designated as the PGA National Italy last year, and excellent practice facilities that include Trackman technology, Argentario provides guests with all the requirements for a truly relaxing holiday; a spa and wellness centre, a range of other outdoor facilities such as padel, tennis and mini football, two restaurants offering delicious local cuisine and well-appointed accommodation, all with private decked terraces.
Moreover as we head into the mid-season in September and October, the package costs have been reduced to reflect this, offering excellent value for money whilst special midweek stays are also available at a discount.
The eco-friendly par 71, 6,218 metre golf course with its panoramic views over the Orbetello Lagoon and the Tyrrhenian Sea takes in natural Mediterranean vegetation such as cork-oaks over the front nine whereas the back nine weaves in and out of ancient olive groves. Numerous water hazards and often-breezy conditions make the course a testy challenge whilst at the same time adding interest and personality.
The newly-established Club House at Argentario boasts a host of driving bays, a practice putting green and chipping area whilst the expansive wooden deck overlooking the 9th green is the perfect spot on which to enjoy some post-golf refreshments against a stunning backdrop.
The 2,700 m² spa, now open in accordance with regional Covid guidelines, provides an area for some rest and relaxation, allowing guests to enjoy the swimming pools (one indoor and one outdoor) and to exercise in the gym.
After a revitalizing cocktail in The Aper Bar, guests can then indulge in some exquisite fine dining accompanied by local wines in the Dama Dama Restaurant or try out the healthy Mediterranean cuisine at the Club House Restaurant which are both overseen by local head chef, Emiliano Lombardelli.
The Resort’s stay-and-play four-night packages start from Euros 910 per person for seasoned players and Euros 740 per person total beginners, whilst seven-nights cost from Euros 1,518 per person and Euros 1,228 per person respectively.
Moreover if a partner or family member is not into golf, there are non-golfer rates available.
