Alright guys...

I'm off on a Stag weekend on the 20th June to Albufeira, leaving on the Friday (@ stupid O'Clock), returning Monday (@ sensible O'Clock).

Now I'm assuming come Sunday morning after 2 days and nights on the sauce, I'll find at least 4 of the 20 odd going who would like a good game of golf on one of the courses close by...

I've no plans to take my clubs with me, so will have to hire, but I'll offset that against not paying £25 Carriage on the plane. 

so... fire away with your recommendations guys... affordable courses (use £30 as a marker) are the order of the days!

Cheers,

Tim check out

www.algarvegolf.net for courses it will also advise prices, then you can e-mail the club for tee times.

One caution you may want to consider, booking via the hotel your staying at could work out considerably cheaper.

you can call me if you wish I will pm my Mob number.

Cheers Wayne,

I wasn't being totally lazy, google had thrown that site up... have you been out there?  would you recommend one or warn me away from others?

I sort of narrowed it down to either one of the 3 courses in/around Albufeira or at a stretch one of the 6 at Vilamoura or the 10 at Portimao!

Great choice, but a lot to make a decision! so I'm hoping peopel will say 'yep go there...' or 'no don't go there...'

Can't wait.

After a quick 30 minute flick through that site...

Salgados is looking the likely destination...

Anyone played there?

 Have a good weekend guys - play well and keep safe..

Yes, Tim, I have played Salgados, not the best by a long way but affordable, although for the same money I would much prefer Morgado (North of Portimao).
