Cheap and Easy access to “Pitch & Put” around Sitges

Friday, March 21st, 2008

There are several good and very cheap Pitch & Put courses around Sitges. All easily reachable by car within 15 to 35 minutes. Great for the scenery and for improving your short game or just having a 2.5 hour very pleasant and picturesque walk!
Typical cost mid-week is around €10,50 to €14,00 green fees per person and hire of clubs is a standard 2,50 per person, if needed. A trolley (makes life somewhat easier but not essential) is a further €2,50.

The weekends tend to be busier and also littered with local competions, so possibly best avoided.

At some of the courses it is easy to combine a good reasonably priced 3 course lunch, around €10 per head, with the golf.

Staff at the courses are generally very welcoming and sympathetic to newcomers. There are some good professionals, driving ranges and putting practice greens. A bag of range balls is only €1!

Jon & Eddie at the Liberty can give further information or the local tourist office in Sitges can also help.
