Holidays in Quinto do Lago, on Portugal’s sunny Algarve coast, present an upmarket resort that is especially popular with visitors who enjoy a round or two of golf. With four 18-hole courses, golfers are in their element among the lush green fairways of Quinta do Lago. Holidays in this exclusive resort are enjoyed predominantly by British and Irish holidaymakers, and many of the villas in the two classy ‘Four Seasons’ resorts are owed by ex-pats. As well as golf, a Quinta do Lago holiday offers all kinds of other activities to keep you on your toes including squash, horse-riding, clay pigeon shooting and a tennis centre. Quinta do Lago is right on the doorstep of a picturesque nature park and has a nice sandy beach backed by sandstone cliffs.
