Golf Courses

• Fregate golf course

  

  A very fine design by Ronald Fream, taking advantage of the magnificent countryside and Mediterranean coastline. From the first to last, every hole is good and you won’t want the round to stop. Do take time to actually look at each hole before teeing off as many require a sensible rather than …

• Opio Valbonne golf course

  

  One of the oldest layouts in the south and laid out over 220 hectares of undulating woodland, this is a lovely track with the benefit of an on-site hotel.

• Nimes Vacquerolles golf course

• Pont Royal golf course

  

  This is a very fine test of golf where Seve’s trademarks of huge bunkers, well-placed trees and water hazards fit in beautifully with the natural ravines and undulations. Pont Royal is a tough proposition to overcome and Stableford rather than Medal should be encouraged. Playing here is about …

• Sainte Maxime golf course

• Grand Avignon golf course

  

  This course makes for a fine day – wide, well-maintained fairways lead to smallish and very true greens but first you have to avoid the various copses and small but cleverly-placed bunkers. To add to your enjoyment, our green fee includes buggies. A great-value golf course ideally located for …

• Montpellier Juvignac golf course

  

  This is pleasant “target-golf”. Laid out over rugged terrain complete with a ravine and cunningly-placed trees, there are many impressive holes but none are fearfully difficult. Most golfers should post a good score and also enjoy the old-style Mediterranean design. Very nice. Hilly in …

• Marseille La Salette - On Request golf course
