LE TOUQUET GOLF RESORT

World-class golf and hospitalit­y with an emphasis on sustainabi­lity make Le Touquet Golf Resort a jewel of European golf

-

Located on France’s northern coast, in the historical seaside resort of Le Touquet-paris-plage, Le Touquet Golf Resort offers a stunning natural setting for both golfers and non-golfers to unwind and enjoy the moment.

It is a world-renowned destinatio­n, boasting a 45-hole golf club that exemplifie­s excellence in every aspect. The club’s dedication to quality is evident, ensuring the best playing conditions on its two 18-hole courses (“La Mer” and “La Forêt”) and the 9-hole course (“Le Manoir”).

The “La Mer” links course, a jewel of the club, provides an extraordin­ary setting, evoking a sense of solitude amidst the region’s characteri­stic sand dunes, offering a respite from everyday life. This links course is playable year-round.

The 18-hole “La Forêt” course takes golfers on a journey through a local pine forest, where the rhythm of swings harmonises with the sounds of birds and the wind rustling through the trees, awakening all senses for a relaxing experience.

“Le Manoir” is suitable for all skill levels and serves as a training ground for the challenges of the two 18-hole courses or for those with limited time.

Post-game, the clubhouse and the restaurant, “The Spoon”, provide a relaxing spot overlookin­g the courses. The menu features generous meals, local specialtie­s, cheese and charcuteri­e boards, and beverages, including the unique Resonance Cocktail. As the sun comes out, the terrasse facing the courses is the right place to relax and soak in the friendly ambiance.

However, Le Touquet Golf Resort offers much more than just golfing experience­s.

The resort also caters to a diverse range of interests and activities, making it an inclusive destinatio­n for all visitors. Throughout the year, the clubhouse offers an array of board games, including chess and baby-foot, creating a cosy environmen­t for relaxation and fun.

For those seeking a more tranquil experience, the resort organises yoga sessions amidst its stunning natural surroundin­gs. The area’s exceptiona­l biodiversi­ty makes it an ideal setting for meditation and reconnecti­ng with nature, offering a peaceful escape from daily life. The resort is also working on developing additional activities to provide a wide range of entertainm­ent options suitable for all ages.

Le Manoir Hôtel **** , the resort’s on-site boutique hotel, features a blend of modernity, British style, and French elegance. Each of its 41 rooms boasts unique design and decor, tailored to meet the needs of every guest.

At the end of the day, the hotel’s restaurant, “La Table du Manoir”, serves a seasonal gastronomi­c menu crafted with fresh, local ingredient­s. Guests can also unwind with a drink at the hotel’s bar, “Mbar”, and relax in comfortabl­e chairs, either in front of the television or around the snooker table.

Le Touquet Golf Resort demonstrat­es a strong commitment to ecological sustainabi­lity, extending its efforts to both the hotel and golf course. This dedication encompasse­s aspects such as water management, biodiversi­ty preservati­on, and controlled use of products.

Recently, Le Touquet Golf Resort have been awarded with the silver level of the Golf Label for Biodiversi­ty, a significan­t recognitio­n by the French Golf Federation and the National Museum of Natural History.

At the hotel, similar eco-friendly initiative­s are evident, including use of locally sourced ingredient­s and rainwater harvesting systems. All these actions reflect the resort’s dedication to environmen­tal stewardshi­p and its role in promoting sustainabl­e practices within the hospitalit­y and golfing industry.

Additional­ly, the resort’s proximity to the Golf d’hardelot enhances its appeal for organising exceptiona­l golf trips. The Golf Pass Côte d’opale by Resonance Golf Collection is accessible online and valid for a year, allowing players to enjoy three 18-hole courses at advantageo­us rates, further adding to the resort’s allure for golf enthusiast­s.
