Dolce Campo Real sits on land once used by the Portuguese royal family as a hunting reserve, in the rolling hills near Turcifal, on the edge of the protected Socorro and Archeira mountains. Donald Steel laid out the course in 2005, around forty minutes from Lisbon and twenty from the west coast beaches, working the terrain rather than against it.
The round opens and closes with par fives, and water comes into play early. The front nine sets the sterner test: the 6th, stroke index one, is a blind uphill tee shot that rewards local knowledge over power. The 5th offers the best reward for boldness, a reachable dogleg-left par five with panoramic views back over the resort and mountains, while the 17th, overlooking vineyards and the clubhouse, is the round's most photogenic moment. The course hosted the Ladies European Tour's Ladies Open of Portugal in 2010 and the ISPS Handa Portugal Ladies Open in 2011, drawing some of the strongest fields in women's golf to these fairways.
Facilities include a driving range, a golf academy with resident professionals and a dedicated junior programme, a locker room, and a clubhouse restaurant and snack bar. Green fees here are notably kinder than at many of its Lisbon-region neighbours. Book Dolce Campo Real through Tee Times and add a well-priced, tour-tested round to your Lisbon golf break.

Green are healing nicely since they punched them. Putts rolling much better from a week ago.

Bunkers need sand. Some are like concrete.

The course is not the same standard as Praia Del Rei or West Cliffs but is more than playable and good value compared to the other courses in the region. The front 9 is more challenging and you do need to know the course to plot your way around as there are a number of blind shots required. Very pretty course winding through the Portuguese countryside.

Extremely helpful woman at check in. Unfortunately, they had no control over the rain and wind ????. The course was in good shape.

Interesting layout with some great holes. Unfortunately we found the fairways muddy and overall the course looked a bit unloved. It needs investment.

Tough golf course and definitely not designed for walking.
