Circolo Golf Torino La Mandria

Circolo Golf Torino La Mandria stands as a pristine jewel of golfing excellence, rich in history and nestled in the sprawling beauty of Parco Regionale La Mandria. With origins tracing back to 1956, when the renowned British architect John Morrison laid the design for the initial 18 holes, this club has evolved spectacularly to host 36 holes across its majestic Blue and Yellow courses. Established amidst the relics of the Royal House of Savoy's hunting reserve, the club offers an escape into a serene expanse where the spirit of the game intertwines with the unspoiled splendor of nature, providing a haven for golf enthusiasts seeking a tranquil yet challenging experience. Each course, the Blue and the Yellow, curated by a lineage of expert architects including Morrison, Harris, Croze, and Cooke, presents its own set of challenges and delights. The Blue course, known for its classic parkland layout, tests skills with its creatively sculpted mounds, water hazards, and strategic bunkering, especially noted in the drama of the 13th hole. The Yellow course complements this with a harmonious blend of precision and nature, demanding tactful plays over ditches and around ancient trees. Not to forget, the charming 9-hole pitch and putt course offers a fun and engaging experience that caters to those honing their short game or enjoying the leisure of a relaxed round. Beyond the fairways and greens, Circolo Golf Torino La Mandria enchants with its clubhouse, a vintage masterpiece from the late 1950s designed by Attilio Biral. Within its walls, a lively bar and a distinguished restaurant operated by the Garino family offer delectable Italian cuisine in an ambiance that radiates warmth and luxury. Furthermore, the exclusive swimming pool area (accessible to guests of members) provides a sublime setting for relaxation after a day on the course. Whether it's the allure of playing on a course steeped in golfing heritage or the temptation of exquisite dining and leisure facilities, Circolo Golf Torino La Mandria promises an unmatched golfing pilgrimage amidst the picturesque landscapes of Piedmont, Italy.
