Potrerillo De Larreta

El Potrerillo de Larreta golf course, imposing and spectacular due to its privileged natural environment, is considered one of the best in South America and is praised by professional players who visit it.

The architect Ignacio Zuberbuhler Larreta, Enrique Larreta''s grandson, inherited these lands and in 1995, together with his children, began with a family project of a Resort and a Country Club, counting within this project an 18-hole golf course that runs through streams and hills, designed for all levels of players. The course was initially laid out by Angel Reartes in conjunction with the Zuberbuhlers, who then continued with the construction and were advised on the design of the greens by Arch. Marcos Capdepont, who stayed in the house to make the drawings while the building was being built. court. Tifway 419 meadows were implanted on the fairways, with excellent sprinkler irrigation for this purpose, the greens are of the USGA type standard and agrostis L93 grass.

In 2014 the spacious Club House was inaugurated, designed by the architects Ignacio Zuberbuhler Larreta and Claudia Mestre, maintaining the colonial style imposed by Enrique Larreta. It is a characteristic of the El Potrerillo de Larreta golf course, the stream that comes into play in 5 of the first 9 holes, giving it a very noticeable difficulty. The second nine holes, in them another stream surrounds them, also in five holes it comes into play, the second nine being more complicated by its yardage.Another notable detail of the course is that from the beginning it was tried to maintain the natural landscape, hence, although there were, the great movements of the ground are not noticeable.In almost all the holes there are 4 and 5 different starting tees, in this way we manage to equal the level of play and without this advantage, it would be almost impossible for high handicap players to enjoy this competitive court. The course is par 72 and 7,163 yds.
