About the course
Gramacho is one of the established golf courses in the Lagoa area, convenient for a holiday based in Carvoeiro or Ferragudo. Ronald Fream and Nick Price designed the 18-hole course using rocky outcrops, stone walls and mature trees, with lakes and bunkers shaping the playing choices. Alternative greens allow the setup to vary, giving returning players different targets within the same layout. This variation is part of Gramacho’s appeal for golfers arranging more than one round from a local holiday base.
The course belongs to Pestana’s golf network and uses the operator’s reservation service. Vale da Pinta is another distinct course in the same wider golf development, so the booking should name Gramacho explicitly. Portugal’s tourism listing identifies a driving range, putting and chipping areas, lessons, a golf shop and equipment hire. This makes it practical to combine preparation and a round at one golf base, with services arranged in advance as needed. Visitors should travel to the golf clubhouse rather than assume that a Carvoeiro postal reference means the course is in the village centre.
