I’ve enjoyed reading the most daunting hole thread and pleased to see a few members have mentioned the 4th on the Europa course at La Cala. It was such a strange hole to play and one you definitely won’t forget... it got me thinking about the strangest course I have ever played whilst staying at the Center Parcs in Nottingham.
Me and a pal wanted to get our fix in and decided to check out TeeOffTimes which didn’t throw up a lot of options - we went for the course with the earliest tee time so we weren’t ditching the family for too long and never knew it was on the grounds of a racecourse until we saw the signs (following our satnav)
In short... it was bonkers, the front 9 is played inside the track which you have to cross to start your round and just feels so strange. I really don’t know how they can co-exist as surely you can’t have a comp on during Saturday race day ? at times you are teeing off alongside the inner side of the track. although it’s not a long course (as you would expect) it is weird how midway through the front 9 you almost forget you are on a horse Island.
Anyway - it would be good to hear what Is the strangest / quirkiest course you have ever played?
