Designed in 1992 by Peter Thompson, Barcelona Valley Golf Club, Valley Course is one of the busiest courses in Pattaya. It is a beautiful course with a varied layout incorporating lots of elevation changes, mature trees and wonderful countryside views. On a quiet day it is magnificent but it can get very overcrowded in peak season with a huge influx of Japanese and Tawainese golfers. The Barcelona Valley Golf Club, Valley Course complex also incorporates a large clubhouse with 3 different restaurants. The German restaurant is especially good, especially for those who like ice cold beer after their round.  A housing estate, condominium, and small golf resort overlook the course.
