Pine Cliffs Golf Course
Course Information and Presentation
The spectacular cliffs of Algarve, a breathtaking view of the Atlantic Ocean, a 9-hole golf course with the 9th hole affectionately called the "Devil's Parlour"—all these are elements of the Pine Cliffs Golf Course, which is just a stone's throw away from the Sheraton Algarve Hotel. The Pine Cliffs was built in a pine woodland edging the cliffs of Algarve. It was opened in 1990, and was designed by Martin Hawtree, from Hawtree & Son of England (also the designers of the Cerregueira course).
The "Devil's Parlour" is a hole located over a cliff with a 200-foot drop. Its Par 3 ninth is the signature hole, as it is 140 metres over the deep chasm. Par 4 is no less challenging, because the golfer's drive must go through a narrow gap between pine trees. But what makes Pine Cliffs a golf course worth going on a "pilgrimage" for is the challenge it poses to its players: nine holes, 2274 metres in length, and the famed 9th hole—the one over the ravine. Add to that the tempting beaches of Algarve and the fact that the Sheraton Algarve Hotel is a 5-star hotel. With all these amenities and features, a golfer would not want to miss playing this amazing Algarve golf course.
Another "attraction" to the Pine Cliffs golf course is that its president is the British Formula One motor racing star Nigel Mansell.
