18 hole Bretesche golf course

 

A golf hotel in Brittany in outstanding natural surroundings

Sheltered by an ancient forest, the 18 hole Bretesche golf course can, deservedly claim to rank among the most beautiful of France, or even of the world, according to Robert Sidorwsky, in his work « Golf : 365 Courses around the World». The circuit, drawn by Henri Cotton almost 40 years ago, graciously fits into the landscape majestically overlooked by the castle towers and ramparts. To whet your appetite for exploit, a magnificent par 72 of 6 080m. Radiant green fairways, mown in a grid pattern, bordered by the most beautiful varieties of trees, set the tone. The hydrangeas and rhododendrons rhythm your start, while the velvet greens reply. Here, even beginners can hope to be ranked. A compact 9 hole course, designed in similar spirit to the 18 hole course, welcomes them to practise in all tranquility.
