Golf du Médoc is one of the most renowned golfing destinations in France, thanks to its two internationally renowned championship courses, laid out over the famous terrain of the wine-producing area around Bordeaux. Many famous names have graced the courses; Retief Goosen triumphed at the 1999 French Open, while notable visitors to both courses include Ballesteros, Crenshaw, Olazabal, Garcia, Woosnam, Montgomerie and more.
Chateaux Course
The Chateaux Course is a demanding par-71 stretch, which, when played from the championship markers, reaches 6,907 yards. American designer Bill Corre took much of his influence from the UK and Ireland's links courses, and as such the fairways at the Chateaux are lined with gorse, heather and broom. The stunning course is often affected by the stern Atlantic breezes, making it a formidable proposition, but one that will certainly be enjoyable.
Vignes Course
The 6,802 yard Vignes is Golf du Médoc's second course, but it is certainly not inferior. Designed by Canadian Rod Whitman, the Vignes is distinctly different in character than the Chateaux, as it carves through the towering pines, with more of a parkland accent. The par-5s are particularly challenging, and Whitman's most notable legacy is his strategic placement of telling bunkers, which will only be safely negotiated by the most prudent player.

The newly opened Golf du Médoc Hotel is a luxury destination, providing extremely comfortable accommodation, set in a relaxed and unfussy environment.
Natural tones and simple elegance are the predominant influences on the hotel's style, where you will find 79 spacious bedrooms. Every guest room benefits from satellite television, en-suite bathroom, safe deposit box, internet access and the best modern facilities.
High class amenities at the hotel are perfectly complemented by the excellent service and attention that all guests will receive, and with the opportunity to experience the fascinating wine-producing region around Bordeaux, it is no surprise the Golf du Médoc Hotel and Spa has in its short existence already become one of the most popular golf holiday resorts in France.
The hotel has its own indoor swimming pool, but the most attractive feature is undoubtedly the spa complex. In addition to the sauna and steam rooms, you can treat yourself to a massage or reflexology treatment, while there are specially designed therapies tailored for both men and women.
The South-Western city of Bordeaux is just a short drive from the resort, and is a hot spot for wine aficionados. Among the most famous vineyards are Chateau Latour, Chateau Rothschild and Chateau Margaux, and sampling the local produce is an integral part of a visit. Dubbed the ‘City of Art and History', Bordeaux has some terrific examples of 18th century architecture, and its old quarter has been designated a World Heritage Site by UNESCO. Highlights include the Place De La Bourse, and the Basilica of Saint-Seurin, the most ancient church in the city.
If you're game's not up to scratch, the golf complex has a range with 16 covered bays and up to 40 uncovered grass bays that are the perfect place to pound some balls.
Le Table du Médoc is the hotel's culinary highlight; the elegant dining room has a refined menu that is supported by the finest vintages from the Médoc region.
With views over both courses, the Clubhouse is the place for a relaxed meal or a well-earned drink, while the Salon Bar Bibliothèque is a great meeting point at the hotel.
