Villa d'Este Golf Club
Just 14 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.
The Course
Set amidst gentle hills and the splendour of Lake Como, the 18-hole course is one of Europe’s most charming and technically demanding “par 69” layouts.
Each year, it hosts prestigious international competitions, attracting golf enthusiasts from all over the world.
La Terrazza al Golf
A New Chapter in the Club’s Culinary Story
With the opening of La Terrazza al Golf, the Golf Club Villa d’Este introduces a new dining destination, deeply rooted in the heritage and enduring excellence of Villa d’Este. Overlooking the 18th hole, the terrace commands sweeping views across the course and the surrounding landscape, offering a setting of remarkable charm and tranquillity. Leading this new culinary chapter is Chef Orazio Stella, whose philosophy is guided by a refined balance between tradition and innovation. His cuisine celebrates the integrity of each ingredient, enhancing the finest seasonal produce with precision, harmony, and understated creativity.
The vision is further elevated under the supervision of Villa d’Este’s Executive Chef, Andrea Guerini, ensuring seamless continuity with the Grand Hotel’s distinctive elegance and timeless style. The terrace thus becomes a place where sophistication and quality are expressed in every detail.
The experience unfolds in an atmosphere that gracefully combines culinary excellence with the spirit of the game. Each dish reflects both the richness of the territory and the Chef’s creative sensibility. Open to Members and to guests beyond the Club, for both lunch and dinner, the restaurant offers the opportunity to gather and savour convivial moments within an exceptional panoramic setting.
