Finca Cortesin | Marbella | Spain

Ultra-luxurious hotel (opened October 2008) offering a heavenly sanctuary, close to the UK, with one of the longest golf courses in Europe. But it is definitely not all about the golf. ‘Less is more’ is definitely the motto for this gem; fewer bedrooms equals more space in each room, fewer guests means the greatest service and attention to detail.

Perfect for… golf fanatics and those who appreciate the finer things in life
