It's got PEACOCKS! regular and pure white. Also, there's a pond with boats you can rent, and waterfowl of all kinds- swans, ducks etc. It's just lovely!

A great golf course a hour North of Lisboa. The course is new (opened 2017) and designed by Cynthia…read moreDye. At the moment, the course is semi-private. The public can schedule tee time on-line but there is an option to purchase membership. Perhaps the owners will eventually limit public tee times as the course increases in popularity. The course is great and I foresee if becoming one of the top golf destinations in Europe. At the moment, there are no standing structures on the course to spoil your views of the ocean and surroundings (except for club house and lavatories hidden on the course). The developer is planning to build a community around the course, so I'm not sure of the impact to views. Lisboa marked the end of two weeks golfing in Sotogrande and Algarve. Since I would be in Lisboa I made arrangements to stay near West Cliffs and booked a tee time. Though only a hour from Lisboa, I would recommend making accommodations near the course. It is possible to drive from/to Lisboa to play West Cliffs but it can be exhausting (portion of the drive is on rural roads). The facilities are new and simple but the course made the trip worth the drive. Service is professional but basic. Players have an option of walking, buggy, or board. Most of the players walk which can slow down your round if you are not walking. For most of the holes you have a view of the ocean but I'm afraid once construction of homes pick up the course will loose some of its charm. Cynthia Dye did an amazing job designing each hole. Most of the holes requires a player to account for wind. Overall, a great course to play for single as well as mid handicappers. Of my two weeks playing golf in Southern Iberia, this is one of my favorite courses. It reminds me a lot of Cabot Links. Pros: Stunning views of ocean and landscape Great holes Not a lot of players Cons: Long walk between some greens and tee box Long round if behind slow players Access from highway not easy

Went here with the large group I was traveling with and were able to be seated right away…read more After perusing the menu, I decided to go with the omelette with goat cheese and mint. The omelette was actually very good and was a nice combination of flavors. We also had several servings of fries, which were also tasty. Not a bad place to grab a cheap bite for lunch and the service is friendly to boot.
