20 minutes drive from Lisbon

Designed by the renowned golf architect, William "Rocky" Roquemore, author of several projects in Portugal, the Belas Golf Course, in Lisbon, is set in the mountains between Belas and Queluz, Portugal. It has been perfectly integrated in Charles Franzman's master-plan for the Country Club's residential development of houses spread over the hills, with views over the Belas golf course and the valleys, and fairways sheltered from the wind.

Two contrasting landscapes

Belas golf course is a Championship Golf Course. The layout is extraordinary, with several fairways and greens set in deep valleys, and it affords unforgettable panoramic scenery to golfers and visitors. The Belas Golf Course, near Lisbon, is divided into two very different sections: the first crosses a naturally preserved landscape; the second runs by some houses that are part of the development, and has been improved by the planting of one thousand trees, mainly pine.

Inspired by the Masters

At Belas Golf Course, there are two holes notable for their beauty and their challenging qualities: the 2nd hole, a Par 5 called Augusta, was built in homage to the 13th hole of the famous golf course where the Masters tournament takes place; hole Nr. 18, a memorable Par 4 finisher, was christened "The Big Hole", because of the second stroke players must make some 180 metres from the green, which is well protected by a lake.

First sustainable golf course in Portugal

Belas Clube de Campo, near Lisbon, Portugal, has received several certifications regarding sustainability, highlighting its excellent efforts with respect to the environment (QEMS, EN NP ISO 14001, European “Committed to Green” Programme).
