Barlassina Country Club
Surrounded by the lush vegetation of the Groane Park, it is easily reached from both Como and Milan.
The Barlassina Country Club is an exclusive destination for golfers seeking peace and quiet, just 25 minutes from the centre of Milan.
The course, which is situated in Groane Park, was designed by architect John Morrison and subsequently changed to its current 72-par design by John D. Harris and Marco Croze. The course is varied and the slightly undulating ground is impressive and enjoyable to play on. The rough is competitive, but not excessively so, allowing all players to easily recover. The new guest house has 10 completely renovated rooms overlooking the golf course.
