Latest Update

Tim has sent me some pictures taken in late October. He is also President of his block and has sent a copy of his email to his "constituents" which has interesting information which Tim is happy to share with us:

I have just returned from a weeks holiday at our apartment and thought I would drop you a quick update

Attached are some photos from the roof of our block, taken with a mobile phone so apologies if the quality is not so good.

In summary

• The golf course is great and very playable and interesting for all handicap levels
• The pro shop is now open for all day, I believe to 7pm (initially it was closing at 130pm)
• Be careful when booking, do not trust the Mar Menor II service as their is currently no link to the system on Las Terrazas, the number I was given by Dave (the Mgr) I believe is a mobile no. 638672797 or pop over to the pro shop and book direct.
• Pro shop only currently sells golf balls, so come prepared, but you can hire buggies and trolleys.
• Marshalls now policing the course, keeping good play speed, reminding no buggies to drive down middle of fairway and distributing water..
• It still seems possible to get your first round as a Resident 'free' - take a utility bill with you or face a big argument with staff, a key with plot number does not seem to be enough!!
• Work continues on the main islands, brick work now going in on the front apartments, the town centre is also very busy with work completed on the exterior floor tiling, and the actual 'supermarket' now with air conditioning plumbing in place.
• Strong rumour is that 'supermarket' could be open in 2 months, the amount of work being done would support this, however believe it when it opens is my motto!
• Work elsewhere seems to have slowed since the summer, it appears that some buildings will just be left as skeletons until more sales happen, understandable but ugly.
• People are moving in to the revised Phase 2 apartments, they look really good.
• The gardens / green areas all look very healthy and now a pleasure to stroll around or cycle!
• Lots of positive in local newspapers that the 'Paramount' development WILL go ahead around Condado and not Fuento Alamo, time will tell but will be positive for us all if plans firm up.
• During my travels, the Murcia to Mazzaron highway was closed for a section due to developments for Corvera airport, lots of official signs and lots of people working!

Overall, I feel things are looking up, and a very positive feel despite it still being very quiet considering the national school holidays (UK wise)

The emphasis on some of Tim's points are mine as I feel these could potentially be major items of potential interest.

Tim has renumbered the holes to show the current layout of the course which is reflected in the scorecard below.
