Set in Anzin-Saint-Aubin just outside Arras, Best Western Plus The Fairway hotel works well for golfers who want an easy-access base in northern France with the course on the doorstep and the city's historic centre within easy reach. The building itself is a rehabilitated piece of regional heritage, now running as a 4-star property with 58 rooms and suites, a serious spa and a strong on-site restaurant. The Pas-de-Calais backdrop adds real depth to the trip, with Arras's Flemish architecture and the region's First World War heritage sites all within a short drive.

Best Western Plus Le Fairway is a golf hotel that works for a wide range of travellers, from the society organiser who needs everything in one place to the couple who wants a proper short break with golf, spa time and good food all sorted. The course is on the doorstep, the spa is well above average for this type of property and the restaurant and bar give you everything you need for a solid evening after the round.

Who is this for?
Golfers who want more than just a bed near the first tee, and travellers looking for a proper retreat in northern France that combines quality hospitality with easy access to a good course and the wider Arras region.

Who is it best for?
Golf societies and groups who want a self-contained base with everything on-site, couples combining golf with spa time, and anyone who wants a hotel that has been put together with care rather than simply dropped beside a fairway.
