Seve’s company, Trajectory, designed the Royal Óbidos course for Portuguese develop MSF TUR.IM. The course was constructed by Spanish-based contractor Garden & Golf, and is located outside the historic city of Óbidos, north of Lisbon.

The 65 hectare course and associated resort represent an investment of €200 million by the developers. Six holes overlook the Óbidos Lagoon, while twelve have views over the Atlantic.

Eduardo Johnston da Silva, the resort’s director of golf said: “The Royal Óbidos project is characterised by the concept of overall quality, which provides a totally customer-focused golf experience, from check-in until the nineteenth hole. The playability of the course provides a challenge to players of all levels, while the cold climate grasses used ensure a homogenous golf course 365 days a years.”

The development includes a five star hotel, with spa and conference rooms.
