GD BEST COURSES BY COUNTRY 18.png

A five star golf course located near St Emilion and designed by one of the best architects in the world, Tom Doak. This exceptional course unfolds in a valley fringed by centenary oak trees, framed by vineyards and located just 6 miles from the village of Saint Emilion. A new experience in France that combines the “art de vivre à la française” with the British way of playing golf.

The panoramic view over the course from the club-house is a thrill for any golfer. No artificial earth movement was created, holes follow one another in the most natural and free flowing way; such is Tom Doak’s talent for the routing plan.

TOM DOAK 

Renaissance Golf Design

 

A worldwide reputation as the “Maestro of golf design” Tom Doak is first and foremost a passionate of golf architecture. From Pacific Dunes in Oregon to Cape Kidnappers in New Zealand or Barnbougle Dunes in Tasmania, Tom Doak can be defined as a minimalist that respects the site he is given, optimizing its qualities without ever distorting its true character. An expert in golf design, he is also the most renowned writer when it comes to evaluating golf courses.

“My goal is to make the most out of this magnificent site without ever changing its inherent beauty.”

MAGNIFICIENT NATURAL BEAUTY

ideally located to soak up the sun

forms the backdrop to the Domaine

 

The high ground of the Domaine dominates vast expanses of woodland, meadows and vines. In the distance, the château of the philosopher Montaigne rises above the tree canopy. A landscape of sheer magic.

In the heart of the Domain stands the 19th-century ruins of the Château de Goffre with its outbuildings, stables and barn.

 

The historic buildings, the magnificent trees, the gentle rolling land, the views of Gardegan village and of the nearby vineyards create a feeling that this is a special place. 

 

Few places in the world will combine so many opportunities for pleasure, in the noblest sense of the word!

A FEW MILES AWAY FROM SAINT-EMILION 

a Unesco world heritage site

Anyone who visits the medieval town of Saint-Emilion instantly falls for its charms. Its splendid stone buildings, its quaint cobbled streets, its monolithic church - unique in Europe - and its mouth-watering restaurants.

 

The town exudes a beguiling, timeless elegance. In Saint-Emilion, vine and wine are bywords for heritage, civilization, craft, passion, and exceptional stature. in 1999, Unesco places the whole jurisdiction on the World Heritage List - a distinction that pays tribute to the quality of this extraordinary landscape.

MEETING FINE WINES 

and its exceptional vintages adored worldwide

Saint Emilion seems to emerge from a sea of vines - hundreds of acres tended as meticulously as the gardens of Versailles Palace, and home to sublime ageing cellars whose mere mention excites the imagination of discerning gourmets.
