Villa d'Este Golf Club
Just 12 kilometres from the hotel, nestled in the tranquillity of the Montorfano area, the Villa d’Este Golf Club enchants with its timeless beauty.
Designed in 1926 by architect Peter Gannon and owned by the hotel until the late 1970s and then reacquired in 2024, the course lies 400 metres above sea level, surrounded by centuries-old chestnut, birch and pine trees.
A natural setting for an immersive golf experience
The setting recalls the green landscapes of Scotland, offering a fresh, hushed atmosphere even in the height of summer. Every game becomes an immersive, elegant and timeless experience. The Club House, gracefully overlooking the course and the little Montorfano lake, welcomes guests into an atmosphere of rare refinement—where time slows down and every glance is lost in beauty. A place where sport, nature and tradition come together to create unforgettable moments.
