The 18-hole course is 6616 metres / 7235 yards long and is the most demanding of the two courses. The bunkers and greens enable players to experience the true playing conditions of a championship course. Le Chateau course stands out for its spectacular water features. Each year in September Le Chateau Course hosts the ‘French Riviera Masters’, the only Senior European Tour championship in France. The course is ranked N°14 in Continental Europe by Golf World. Its lovely hilly spaces are accessible to golfers with a handicap/index under 35.
Most of the year at Terre Blanche enjoys bright sunny days and mild to warm climates, which means golf is enjoyed year-round. The course appears simple with wide open fairways and large greens, but deceptive placement of bunkers and subtle undulating hills will challenge golfers of every calibre. The isolation of the resort from any major airport or the bustling seaside hive on the Mediterranean creates a tranquillity in the valley where Terre Blanche’s Les Chateau golf course lies. It is recommended to play twice Le Chateau, with a single round on Dave Thomas’ other design, Le Riou Course to mix it up. To mix up the hilly surrounds and wide fairways, a fair amount of water obstructs various holes on the course, which adds to the dilemma of a sub-par scorecard. With a top-10 position in France’s best golf courses, Les Chateau at Terre Blanche truly amazes and excites golfers of every ability.
