How to get there:

You need to get onto the A15/A7/AP7 heading towards Torremolinos/Malaga. 

At Torremolinos the road splits in two (junction km225) – you need to be in one of the left hand lanes and follow the signs for Malaga/Cartama (the signs also say Seville, Cordoba, Almeria).  You are then on a 4 lane highway.  Go through Tunel De Churriana. 

Stay on this road until you get to junction km232 which is A357 signposted Malaga (Oeste) & Cartama. 

Stay left and follow signs for A357 Cartama the road goes up and round, stay left until you get to exit 62 - A7054 Campanillas.  Take this exit – you will see big derelict house up on the hill. 

At the T junction go right there is a signpost for Campo De Golf. 

At the roundabout take 1^st Exit which is signposted Antiguo Camino De Cartama and Campo de Golf.  You then just stay on this road for about 2kms – past big warehouses and then you get to a part where you have the railway line running alongside the road to your left – keep going.  You go under the railway line and a little way after that the road goes from a proper road to more of a tarmac track with no road markings.  Just keep going and the golf course appears on your left hand side – entrance is ahead with a STOP barrier.  You need to drive right up to the barrier to get it to lift!

Inaugurated in 1990 and only 7 kms from Malaga airport this course can be a little difficult to find but is well worth the drive. A truly Spanish style club the front nine is a little like an English parkland course but with tropical vegetation. The back nine are a little more hilly with elevated greens and water hazards. Guadalhorce is very popular with the visiting and resident golfer.
