What Golf Bogliaco does

Golf Bogliaco S.r.l. operates an 18-hole PAR 70 golf resort on the western shore of Lake Garda in Toscolano Maderno, Italy, founded in 1912 as the third-oldest golf course in Italy. The core product is an English-style parkland course of 5,235m (men) / 4,625m (women), expanded from 9 to 18 holes in June 2004, supported by a Club House, driving range with teaching hall, and a Golf Academy outfitted with Flightscope X3 Fusion launch monitors, 3D Biofeedback K-Vest motion capture, Swing Catalyst, Flightscope E6 simulator, and the Capto putting system. Adjacent real estate includes a 10-room Lodge (Bogey/Par/Birdie/Condor room types), vacation apartments (Foursome, Louisiana, Stableford Plus), a public restaurant, and a Pro Shop.

The business runs a direct-to-consumer, multi-segment model: green fees (€48–€97 depending on season/9 vs 18 holes), Gold and Silver annual memberships (€1,350–€1,600), Lodge and apartment stays, individual and group lessons (€35–€100), beginner and certification programs (Platzreife, Zielhandicap), equipment rental (carts, trolleys, bags), packages (Stay, Play & Taste; Green Fee Non Stop; Stay & Clinic; Stay & Clinic Pro Edition), and a year-round tournament calendar with 30+ events including the Terme di Sirmione–sponsored Golf & Health Trophy circuit. Distribution is direct through the company's own website, VerticalBooking reservation engine, on-site golf reception, and Apollo mobile app for driving range tokens; multi-language content in Italian, English, and German targets Italian, British, and German tourist demand. The company has been a single-member subsidiary of Terme di Sirmione S.p.A. since May 2017, under whose direction it operates as part of a broader Lake Garda tourism portfolio.
