Course Information.

Only opened in late 1994 the National has took no time in establishing itself as one of the best courses in Europe.
Designed by David Feherty, the course has received great acclaim; in the year 2000 Golf World Magazine voted it 42nd best course in mainland Europe, rising to 39th the year after. The German magazine Die Welt declared it the 9th best course on the European Mediterranean coast in 2000. More recently Golf Journal voted it 14th best in Europe in 2003.

The National is the first club in Turkey to be developed with guidance and in accordance with the standards determined by European PGA and is open to members and limited day visitors. Although a relatively new course as far as golf courses go, the National is now the most established and respected course in the area with the reputation of being a very tough course from the back tees.

The course itself winds through pine and eucalyptus forests, with the impressive, snow capped Taurus Mountains as a backdrop. The course also makes use of many lakes and will test the ability of any golfer.

For those who don't fancy taking it on just yet there is a 9 hole executive course which is more suited to the higher handicapper. Don't be lulled into a false sense of security though as water comes into play on several of the tee shots and the fairways are lined by dense woodland - if you go in you may not get out in one.

For sharpening the game there is an extensive teaching academy with driving range, chipping and putting greens and a practice bunker - all manned by a team of PGA pro's who will help you sort your swing out.
