Golf at La Torre

Details

Last Updated: 05 April 2018

For those looking for a game of golf, the La Torre Golf WhatsApp group, formed in 2017, now has over 100 members. Open to anyone spending time at La Torre, the aim is to allow members to post when they are available for a game and for other members to be able to contact them. If you are interested in joining the group please complete the form by clicking here. 

In addition, as of April 2018 La Torre now has its very own Golf Society. It is for both residents and non-residents and open to golfers of all levels of experience and capability. The society aims to be inclusive and appeal to a broad spectrum of people. The society will also cater for those golfers who are not full-time residents and visiting the area a number of times throughout the year. If you are interested in joining or require any further details please e-mail at This email address is being protected from spambots.

Pubic Transport for La Torre

Details

Last Updated: 22 February 2018

You will be aware that no public transport currently serves La Torre Golf Resort. A petition has been started to try and persuade the two local bus companies Lycar and Latbus to divert existing services so they serve La Torre.

The petition reads:

There are a total of over 6,700 properties on La Torre Golf Resort, El Valle Golf Resort, Hacienda Riquelme Golf Resort and Las Terrazas de la Torre Golf Resort. At present, there are no bus stops outside any of these four resorts. 

For each of the owners who have signed on the Padrón, Central Government allocates funding to the local council for better public services. Yet we are not seeing the benefit of this extra funding, with regard to public transport. I am calling on the management of Lycar and Latbus bus companies to provide these resorts with better public transport, for which we are already indirectly contributing.

We are not suggesting that buses run through the resorts, nor that new bus services are created, but that the existing bus services make a short diversion and stop outside the gates.

Better public transport will enhance the area and not only benefit the owners at the resorts but also local businesses. And of course, more passengers using the buses can only be good for the bus companies.

We encourage all owners, residents and visitors to La Torre to sign the petition by clicking HERE
