Golf Courses
1 round at Deauville Golf Course Overlooking Deauville’s bay, players putt under the windows of the Grand Hotel at Deauville Golf, an old and challenging course designed by Tom Simpson. A large variety of trees such as oak, elm, ash, apple trees (symbol of the Calvados country) surrounds the fairways, where remain some piece of wall of the Marquis de Lassay’s castle. Deauville is one of the most exclusive golf course in Normandy where many foreign golfers come from all over the world to enjoy golf, relax and… gambling at the famous casino nights at Deauville Hotel du Golf
1 round at Etretat Golf Course Situated at the top of Etretat’s cliffs and overlooking the worldwide known natural arches in the cliffs (Aiguille Creuse), this outstanding golf course is considered as one of the most spectacular in Europe. Like all the authentic links, Etretat Golf Course offers windy conditions and dreadful gorse surrounding some of the fairways requiring long and straight iron shots, which represent a tough challenge for the golfers. Even though you have reached the green, the difficulties remain with the up and down slopes and the flagsticks bending in the gusts
1 round at Omaha Beach golf course Situated close to the famous landing beaches, Omaha Golf Course is one of the best in the West of France and deserves its international label. Nine holes are close to the sea where the windy conditions prevail. The green of hole number 6 at the edge of the cliff overlooking the harbour is a treasure in itself. The other nine holes are set in the heart of the Norman bocage with its apple trees and dense bushes which make up one of the course main difficulties. History is present all along the course with each hole named after heroes from the Normandy landing on 6th of June 1944
1 round at Saint Julien Golf Course Saint-Julien is a delightful parkland course located in the heart of the Pays d’Auge, one of the greenest regions of France. Within 10 miles from the famous shopping city of Deauville, this hilly course offers some panoramic views on the Vallée d’Auge. Water hazards are along several holes and keeping the ball in play can be very challenging when the wind is blowing, which is often the case at Saint-Julien
1 round at Dinard golf course Dinard is the second oldest golf course in France with Biarritz (and after Pau). Set along the shore, this traditional links course designed by Willie Dunn in 1887 has conserved its Scottish design. Even though the course’s length appears short (par 68, 5700 yards), the wind coming from the ocean makes it much longer. Club selection at Dinard is a permanent question for players who have to know how to play any type of approach shots. On this exciting course offering spectacular views on the ocean and the Emerald coast, wisdom and accuracy are the key aspects of the game
1 round at Pleneuf golf course Pleneuf is a superb seaside golf course with breathtaking views on the sea from most of the holes. The fairways are pretty wide for the tee-shots, but when the wind blows (and it always blows), keeping the ball in play becomes the priority. The fast greens are well defended by numerous bunkers thoughtfully placed. A few holes are set along the beach especially the eleventh, an outstanding par 5 whose back-tee is placed on the hilliest part of the course and overlooks the whole coast.
