December 26, 2009 by Timeshare & Fractional Property Magazine, News & Reviews · Leave a Comment
The golfer’s love affair with France is growing faster than you can swing your 9-iron – and in the Provence-Alpes-Côte d’Azur region, the sport is playing an increasingly active role in tourism, attracting more and more visitors from
abroad. With all types of courses in a variety of natural settings on offer, Angela West discovers a picturesque golfing Mecca.
- Golf de Sainte Maxime in the foothills of the Maures
Bursting at the bunkers with historic and championship courses, France is a golfer’s paradise. The country’s golf infrastructure’s been developing rapidly for over 20 years, and with beautifully landscaped, 21st-century courses in stunning locations, it’s internationally recognized as a world-class golf location. Luxury clubhouses and immaculately-manicured courses entice even the most discerning golfer to their greens and along with pro-shops, bars and restaurants, on-site facilities range from driving ranges and golfing academies to luxury hotels and spas.
Boasting over 300 days of sunshine a year, the south beckons with its favorable golfing climate and diverse landscapes, from inland rolling hills capped with vineyards, farmlands and forests to stunning coastal areas dotted with quaint, traditional French villages.
Along with the outstanding natural beauty, the colorful culture, renowned hospitality of the south, wealth of accommodation, superb facilities and delectable gastronomy are all part of the appeal.
