Mallorca

T Golf feels more like a classic European parkland than a sun-baked resort course. Great golf, but slow play took the edge off my round.

Son Servera, Mallorca's second-oldest course, sits quietly in the hills of the north-east: pine corridors, open farmland and a real members' club atmosphere.

Club de Golf Alcanada, just outside Port d'Alcúdia, pairs a Robert Trent Jones Jr. design with a lighthouse view on almost every hole. October is the time to play it.
