Golf in Madrid
When
you are booking a round of golf in Madrid you will find it is not
quite as easy as walking into your local clubhouse and saying "book
me in for the same time next week". The courses here tend to
get busy and booked in advance, so it is best if you can organise
your game(s) before you arrive. The quick guide below should make
this easier for you:
Telephone the chosen club and say "Hola, soy ingles. Hay algien ahi que habla ingles?" (you have just asked for someone who speaks English and normally someone will come on the line). You are then in business to make a reservation in the normal way.
