And it was recently reported that a selection of golfers from Sussex were victorious at a recent golf tournament hosted by La Manga Club.

The Argus noted that the Sussex under-18s team beat the local Murcian golfers 8-2 at the seaside resort. La Manga Club is located on the Mar Menor inland sea and features several golf courses including accommodation that offers vistas over the North course and other greens. The green fees on each of the courses are the same. Golf enthusiasts often choose to take a holiday in Spain, particularly in the region of Murcia, because of the number of golf courses on offer in the area.
