Golfing in Burgundy

Burgundy has a lot to offer golfing enthusiasts even though its potential is still too little known. Judge for yourself : there are about twenty easy-to-get-to, infinitely varied golf courses (including ten 18-hole courses) spread over the four departments of Burgundy.

All this in less than two hours by motorway or TGV from the major agglomerations of Paris, Lyon or Geneva where crowded courses or quite simply the stress of city life can make it difficult to fit in a round of golf.

The contrast with Burgundy could hardly be greater. Here, where people make a virtue of taking their time, where serenity and conviviality are the order of the day, the golfer is in his element.

A tiger or a rabbit, an occasional player or a hopeless addict, you’ll find Burgundy makes a perfect setting in which to indulge your favorite sport. What’s more you’re never far from a tempting wine cellar or restaurant, or from one of the countless gems of architecture for which the region is famous.

Whether you are planning to stay for a few days or a weekend, or would just like to break your journey, why not treat yourself to a round of golf in Burgundy – a new and infinitely appealing way to discover and enjoy the region !
