Palm Springs and golf go together like peanut butter and jelly. With year-round sunshine, sensational mountain and desert views and a laidback lifestyle, few other golfing destinations can even come close. Of course, keen golfers already know this – the tricky bit is finding the right place to stay. Well, try this funky mid-century home out for size. Set between the 13th and 14th holes of the Palm Desert Country Club (redesigned by maestro Gary Bickler in 2006), this spectacular home is worthy of becoming any discerning golfer's ultimate Palm Springs oasis. Built in 1972, the inside of this rad pad adopts a contemporary twist on mid-century style. In the living room, there are low slung pendants, grey sofas jazzed up with turquoise cushions and funky watercolour artwork on the walls. The bedrooms are all playfully styled, with flamingo print bedding and luxurious faux fur throws. There's an abundance of light in most rooms thanks to generous windows and sliding glass doors, and we love how you can walk straight from the master bedroom into the bubbling jacuzzi. The glittering swimming pool is the ideal spot to stretch out and cool down, and at nightfall, we can't think of anywhere... better to be than sitting next to the flickering fire pit while nursing a tumbler of whisky.

Home truths
This home is all on one level with one small step to enter
You can park up to three cars at this home, one in the garage and two on the driveway
As the garden is located right next to the golf course, it has limited privacy
Unfortunately, this property isn't suitable for children under 12-years-old
The jacuzzi plunge pool isn't fenced off from the rear doors of the house, so if you're staying have children or pets, you may want to keep the back doors locked
This is a friendly, residential area, so your host asks that you please keep noise levels to a minimum and don't play music outside between 10pm and 10am
There are cameras fitted on the grounds of the property for extra security
