Play and Stay for Four at Les Bordes, France
Two nights and 36 holes
Les Bordes Estate is home to Les Bordes Golf Club, one of the world’s most acclaimed private facilities which features two championship courses and a par three course designed by world-renowned golf course architects. The elite courses are as unforgettable as they are challenging with lanes weaving between the forest, glimpses of red deer, pheasants, sweeping lakes, and natural clearings.
The estate’s original par-72 course is widely considered to be Robert Van Hagge’s masterpiece; it has been consistently ranked among the top three golf courses in Europe over the past 30 years. The Old Course carves a tree-lined, 7,044-yard (6,441 meters), par-72 course through the rolling Sologne forest, intertwined with a stunning complex of lakes that offer a uniquely serene setting.
Designed by acclaimed golf course architects Gil Hanse and Jim Wagner, the New Course opened in 2021 and was recently named among GOLF Magazine’s Top 100 Courses in the World. Inspired by classical heathland style, the 7,285-yard (6,661 meters) course represents Hanse’s first course in continental Europe and sits on sandy soils and gently rolling terrain. It plays firm and fast with wide playing corridors framed by heather and broom.
