The curtain of the Umbrian hills opens, a real postcard image where these golf courses are worth traveling for.
Located in the center of Italy, Umbria looks a lot like Tuscany did before it became overrun with tourists. This enchanting region has miraculously remained under the radar and extremely well preserved.
With fewer tourists, its cities have remained more authentic and less pretentious. With shorter distances and less traffic, it's an easier region to navigate between cities by car.
The promise of just-harvested olive oil and truffles make charming little trattorias, an additional reason to visit the region, also considering that costs of both accommodations and restaurants tend to be more affordable.
Its peculiarity offers many advantages to discerning travelers interested in experiencing Italian art, history, culture and cuisine.
But let's talk about the best places to play golf in Umbria!

Antognolla Golf Course
The most spectacular golf course in the region is certainly Antognolla. Designed by the renowned designer Robert Trent Jones Junior, the eighteen-holes at feature long has cliff-lined fairways and undulating greens.
With its beautiful water hazards and large greens, the clever layout makes Antognolla an exciting and satisfying course for golfers of all abilities.
It is located in San Giovanni del Pantano, amidst Perugia and Umbertide, where the several undulating hills make the landscape always changing. La Boiola is the name of the restaurant within the golf course.
Here you will taste delicious dishes made with the very best of local products, including herbs, olives, fruit and vegetables grown on the estate itself. Superb ingredients and authentically rustic dishes as the best tradition of the region are known for. The restaurant delivers more than standard clubhouse food, which attracts diners from across the region.




Perugia Golf Course
Golf Club Perugia is located just 6 km from the historic center of the Etruscan city of Perugia and strategically located near art cities of great historical and cultural interest, such as Assisi, Gubbio, Todi, Spoleto and Cortona.
The gently undulating course is a par 72, the core of which dates back to the late 1950s.
The clubhouse is obtained from an old lime kiln dating back to 1921. The original imperious towers are maintained; these guard the path that typically evokes the English fields.


 

Lamborghini Golf Course
Conceived by Eng. Ferruccio Lamborghini, the nine holes course of the Golf Club Lamborghini, stretches over a beautiful, hilly landscape close to Lake Trasimeno and is placed inside the same property.
The golf course, located near lake Trasimeno and Panicale town, was originally constructed in a meandering fashion to intentionally cover a widely spread area of land. Recent changes in its design make the course much more challenging to today’s golfers, inviting experts alike to its greens. 




A.S.D. The Castello Golf Club
Located near Marsciano, the Castello Golf Club is one of the most complete facilities for teaching and practicing golf in Umbria. The field extends over 3 hectares of flat land. Currently, the structure allows players of all levels to be able to train on the long and short game, even at night thanks to the complete lighting of the field. It also welcomes members and guests in the name of cordiality and friendship, allowing to establish a familiar and inspiring atmosphere of pleasant chats between friends, as well as improvised challenges.
