Spectacular place, peaceful, and with excellent service. We had brothy rice with scallops, octopus, and clams—it was absolutely delicious. The prawns “al pil pil” and the anchovies with olive caviar were also outstanding.

Definitely a place to return to!

On December 30th, we had dinner at El Torrente, a Mediterranean restaurant located within the Desert Springs Golf Resort. The setting was absolutely stunning, with breathtaking views of the golf course and the beautiful architecture of the restaurant creating a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The ambiance perfectly complemented the exceptional quality of the food and the attentive service we received.

Every detail reflected a commitment to excellence, making it a truly memorable experience. El Torrente is undoubtedly a restaurant we will return to, and we are especially looking forward to experiencing it again during the summer months.

El Torrente Restaurant at the beautiful Desert Springs Golf Resort really left us speechless. We’ve never eaten so well anywhere in Spain! No matter what you choose, you’ll experience the highest level of taste: perfect aromas, excellent quality dishes, and a presentation that will take you to a culinary paradise. The wine is so special that even Dionysus would envy it.

The setting is breathtaking and surrounded by nature, and the staff attends to each guest with professional care. Thank you for this wonderful experience; we’ll be back soon!

A simply magical place. This place is radiant. We had lunch inside the restaurant, although it was very pleasant outside. Both indoors and outdoors are beautiful, except for the fact that inside it has air conditioning… the food is truly exquisite. We had fun. Remember to bring extra sides because they aren’t included with the dishes, not even French fries, mashed potatoes, or salad. We can’t wait to return.

The staff is smiling and very helpful. The dishes were served fairly quickly. I recommend this place 200%.

Hi Simon,

On behalf of the European Tour Group, I would just like to express my sincere thanks to everyone at Desert Springs for hosting the Qualifying School again this year. There is no doubt that the week was a great success and built on all that has been achieved over recent years. The general condition of the course was better than ever and provided the best playing surfaces I have ever seen at the resort. It was also very “clean” in the desert areas which made it a lot neater and a lot more equitable for the players. Ricardo and his team deserve our congratulations of all their efforts to deliver such a good course.

Having a good week of weather clearly helped – until Sunday when the storm came along to throw a spanner in the works! It’s such a pity that this hit the area but given the catastrophic conditions seen across some parts of Spain, Desert Springs probably got away lightly. Thankfully, we were able to conclude the tournament the following morning.

It was fantastic that we were able to complete our new agreement prior to this year’s tournament and we are delighted to be able continue our association with Desert Springs for a further three years. I’m glad that we had the opportunity to raise a glass to our ongoing collaboration and the future success of the Q School at Desert Springs.

Whilst the dates are in the new agreement, for the record I can confirm that the tournament will be in the same week next year with the following schedule:

Day Round
Tuesday 28th October Practice
Wednesday 29th October Practice
Thursday 30th October Round 1
Friday 31st October Round 2
Saturday 1st November Round 3
Sunday 2nd November Round 4
Monday 3rd November Reserved in case of curtailment to play

 

Thank you for all your support and to your whole team for making us so welcome at Desert Springs. We look forward to returning in 2025!

Many thanks

Regards

Mike Stewart
