Palheiro Golf Course is situated some 10 km east of Funchal with magnificent views overlooking the town and bay. The 18-hole par 72 course was designed by Cabell Robinson in 1993 and is skillfully set in the estate and parkland of the Quinta do Palheiro. Remarkable for its Bermuda fairways, fast greens and the presence of many spectacular mature trees, the course is a worthy challenge for all handicap levels. Palheiro Golf Course Clubhouse has a unique open plan design, which is both spacious and welcoming and has one of the best views on the island. It sits high above the bay of Funchal and has panoramic views over the mountains and Atlantic Ocean; views which can be enjoyed from the veranda whilst sipping a post round drink
