The Loire
Chateaux country … Stunning towns … Home to the best golf course in Europe...
The Loire Valley combines awesome scenery with historic chateaux and towns. Situated in the very heart of France and following much of the 634-mile long river, there’s rarely a crowd – on the roads or on the fairways!
With one every five miles, there is no better place for chateaux and the wine is world-class too. As expected, delicious food is a way of life but what’s news to most golfers is the quality of golf. Of the courses we offer, one is rated Joint No.1 in Europe, two have hosted PGA tournaments and another is home to France’s best Amateur team. The remaining courses satisfy even the most travelled golfer. Our green-fees are exceptional – it’s chateaux golf at B&B prices! The weather is another serious attraction as is the well-drained soil – golf is playable year round and the condition of the courses is to be envied.
For fine golf, sophisticated après-golf and hotels with a difference, there’s nothing nicer, meaning you can be transported to chateaux country in no time at all.
