Faldo commented: "Topographically speaking, this naturally sandy, pine-clad site has leant itself well to a very intriguing design. There is a ridge that runs like a spine through the middle of the site, allowing for three or four meters of elevation change and this feature has been incorporated into all three of our nine-hole layouts. I've been on site to finesse the layout and to work on some additional strategic elements to the design. I want to ensure that this is a golf course that encourages a thoughtful approach, with a fair system of penalties and rewards. Above all though, I hope that visitors will appreciate these wonderful surroundings and experience a golf course that is as uniquely challenging as it is endlessly enjoyable."
With demand for new courses constantly on the increase in this rapidly emerging new golfing destination, Faldo Design's addition will certainly help to add an air of distinction to the area. As well as Faldo's 27-hole course and a state-of-the art practice and game improvement facility, the Cornelia Golf Resort will also feature its own premium tier c. 300 bedroom-hotel and a number of associated luxury golf villas.
Can Girgin General Manager of Cornelia De Luxe Resort commented: "We are delighted with the work that has been carried out by Faldo Design and are confident that this course has the potential to become a real talking point in this part of Europe
Cornelia03
. Nick Faldo is one of the game's most respected strategists and this will surely be reflected in the quality of the golfing experience at the Cornelia Golf Resort.
