Club de Golf Barcelona, known locally as Masia Bach, sits in the hills of Sant Esteve Sesrovires, 30 minutes west of Barcelona in the foothills of the Montserrat mountain. Founded in 1989, it is one of the most ambitious golf developments in the Barcelona area, combining a championship 18-hole course, a 9-hole executive course, and the 5-star Dolce by Wyndham Barcelona resort hotel in a single estate.
The championship course was designed by Jose Maria Olazabal, the Spanish golfer widely considered one of the greatest European players of his generation. Olazabal is a two-time Masters champion (1994, 1999), a European Ryder Cup winning captain, and the designer of several of the most respected modern courses in Spain. His Masia Bach layout is described by the club as 'spectacular and technically demanding,' with dramatic elevation changes, strategic water features, and panoramic views across the Llobregat valley towards Barcelona and the Mediterranean.
The course has hosted multiple European Challenge Tour events and regularly features in the Top 100 Resorts in Spain rankings. It holds Biosphere certification for its environmental management, and the on-site Barcelona Golf Academy is one of the leading training centres in the region.
Beyond golf, the Dolce by Wyndham Barcelona resort offers 5-star accommodation, multiple restaurants, a spa, and conference facilities. The estate is 30 minutes from Barcelona city centre and 20 minutes from Sant Cugat, making it an ideal base for visitors who want to combine championship golf with proximity to the city. It also sits at the edge of the Penedes wine region, with Codorniu, Juve & Camps, and Torres all within 15 minutes - combining a morning round with a wine estate visit is a classic day out.
