Golf Holidays in the Loire Valley
The Loire Valley epitomises the austerity and grandeur of old-fashioned France, with glorious verdant countryside, peppered with magnificent chateaux along the banks of the meandering river. Gastronomy and wine are buzz words in the Loire, but the golfing possibilities should certainly not be underestimated.
The rich soil of The Loire has seen it dubbed "The Garden of France", and the fertile ground has also spawned some of the country's finest golf – why not choose this tremendous region for your next French golf holiday?
The Western Loire is blessed with a fantastic coastline, along which are dotted some of France’s most popular resort towns; head to La Rochelle, Saint Jean De Monts, Pornic or particularly La Baule, whose terrific courses and hotels add a welcome edge to a beach holiday.
Further inland you may find fewer tourists, but you will find famous chateauxs, particularly at Blois, Chambord and Villandry, as well as the outstanding resort at Les Bordes, whose golf course has been ranked as the best in continental Europe.
