Designers Peter Townsend and European Golf Design were blessed with a beautiful piece of virgin cork oak forest and have created a layout which would grace any European Tour event, with superb oversized greens and a length of 7,370 yards from the back Tees.
Narrow landing areas also play with the mind for long and straight hitters.
Ribagolfe Lakes has hosted the first stage of the European Tour Qualifying School since 2009.
