Talamore Golf Resort
Old and young, groups and couples have discovered the secret of the pines. It’s the gentle breeze through the pine boughs, the mild climate, and a chance to stop and smell the roses, or magnolias, or wisteria. It’s the smiles exchanged between strangers. It’s live music and a relaxing beverage to enjoy in the evening. It’s a casual walk through the morning dew in a sleepy village or through horticultural gardens. Discover the secret of the pines for yourself.
