Golf Holidays in Southern France

The South of France has maintained a glamorous reputation, featuring world famous cities such as Monaco, Cannes and Nice to name a few, whilst being renowned for its natural beauty as emphasized by Provence and the French Riviera; the area’s golf courses have certainly reflected that high class and natural beauty throughout. Home to an array of challenging courses, Terre Blanche Hotel Spa Golf Resort is the lead candidate. This luxury golf resort features two superb Dave Thomas designed 18-hole courses which are consistently ranked in the top ranked courses in France and continental Europe. The pinnacle of French luxury, service and golf, Terre Blanche is a must feature on your Southern France golf itinerary.

Furthermore, the region is host to the only Seve Ballesteros in France, Golf International Pont Royal, a beautiful course nestled in the Provence which has been integrated into its majestic natural surroundings. The course has replicated a typical Ballesteros design, incorporating a number of tricky and technical holes between lakes and pine forests. Golf Saint Donat and Golf de Cannes Mougins are two excellent courses which are certainly worth challenging when you visit this stunning region of France.
