The Meliá Sancti Petri is located in the exclusive urbanisation of Novo Sancti Petri right on La Barrosa beach, which is roughly 12 kilometres long. A privileged enclave for travellers seeking a few days’ rest on one of the best beaches in Spain. Surrounded by stunning natural beauty, a paradise for golfers with five 18-hole golf courses less than 5 minutes away, a great choice of water sports, tennis, paddel and football, and within easy reach of the wine route, the bull-fighting route and day trips to the famous “White Villages”, Cadiz, Jerez, Seville and Gibraltar. Chiclana de la Frontera – or Chiclana as it’s known – is on the Bay of Cadiz in southern Spain. The place gets more than 3,000 hours of sunshine a year, yet somehow it’s stayed off the radar of most sun-seekers. The locals are in on the secret, though – they head to spotless La Barrosa beach every summer. And with standout cooking, superb wines and a Seve Ballesteros-designed golf course, there’s much more than just sand to keep them coming back to this area. A 10-minute drive from the beach is the historic centre of Chiclana. A typical Andalusian town, it’s got streets choc-full of classical towers, Baroque churches and Elizabethan houses. There’s a daily food market, top-notch restaurants, and a good quota of wine-filled bodegas, too.

GBPA Feel The Putt & Solgolf Vacations are pleased to be working with Jamie Donaldson European Senior Instructor at Aim Point Golf and his team, can bring you the following clinics, learn and improve with coaching and instruction from 2 world class experts in their field. What is AimPoint? Have you ever watched television coverage of the PGA Tour and seen that blue line pop up between the ball and the hole to show misconceptions. Just imagine how much your scores would improve if you got a couple of reads right in a round and rolled the putts in. What about five correct reads, or even nine? That would still only be half the holes in a round but I don’t know any golfer whose per formance wouldn’t improve beyond recognition if they saved nine shots. Exactly how the putt is going to break? Do you fi nd yourself thinking “I wish it was really that easy”? If you’re one of the majority of golfers nodding their head to that question you could be about to experience an epiphany because the same technology that draws that perfect line has been converted into a green reading technique that will help you hole more putts. If your green reading improves, so will your overall putting performance. “Bad reads can be the root cause of errors in the set up and putting stroke,” says Jamie Donaldson. “If you choose the wrong amount of break you have to aim incorrectly, vary ball speed and push or pull putts in order to make the putt; all of which we are all desperately trying to stop doing. They are also the factors we usually blame for our missed putts.” AimPoint is the brainchild of IT-based. AimPoint, and its creator Mark Sweeney. Mark shared his knowledge and fi ndings with me and together we converted the AimPoint technology into a technique which allows you to determine the amount of break to any pin location in around 20 seconds or less. It’s a system that’s been widely used on all Tours over the last four years – it has amassed multiple wins and propelled Stacy Lewis to the top of the women’s world rankings.”inventor Mark Sweeney and he’s teamed up with British coach Jamie Donaldson to create a system that takes all the guesswork out of the dark art of green reading and replaces it with cold, hard science that anyone can apply to make more accurate reads and improve your putting – whether you’re Tiger
