Alto is a good course. It’s not easy small greens and tight fairways. You have to try and work the ball both ways to be in the best position. It had rained a lot this week but the course held up very well.
The staff were friendly and welcoming.
We will of course be back.

Alto is a really tricky layout, small greens and you need to work the ball both ways off the tees. It plays tough and was the only course we played in 5 days where we received more shots than our handicaps. The service was good and welcoming.
The course was in good condition only let down by the fairways needing a bit of a cut and the greens had suffered with some disease which had been infilled with sand and we suffered a few unjust bobbles. We will be back.

We arrived at the course 45 minutes before our tee off, this should have been plenty of time to get prepared for our round. However, despite arriving early it took 30 minutes of those 45 to collect our buggies as staff were unsure if we could have them as other players had medical certificates.
The course was lovely and considering the recent wet weather it played well with some difficult tee positions.
It was nice to watch the last of our group from the club house bar. Very nice course and will play again next time.

Well presented course with good greens. Need to sort out booking buggies like Pestana manage mid season golf.

Pace of play by walkers and not allowing faster players to play through was bad. We struggled behind a foursome walking the back 9.
