Posted by Tim Cotroneo on Monday, July 11, 2022 · Leave a Comment

The international golf world is embracing Italy’s only private 18 hole golf club. The Club at Castiglion del Bosco, Tuscany, is reserved exclusively for Members and Resident Guests of Rosewood Castiglion del Bosco.

The golf course is one of the finest private courses in Europe and the only Continental European design of Champion golfer Tom Weiskopf. The former British Open winner drew his design inspiration from ‘Rows of mature Cypress trees, dramatic elevation changes and natural water hazards.’ The course’s 13th hole is 685 yards, making it the longest Par 5 in Europe.

Weiskopf’s Tuscan masterpiece is exquisitely blended into the soft curves and contours of the estate’s rolling hills and valleys with panoramic views across the Val d’Orcia, a UNESCO protected landscape.
