Bel Ombre - Golf du Chateau

This spectacular international championship golf course is set in over one hundred acres amidst a natural tropical environment that is truly exceptional with the stone Chateau at Bel Ombre and its formal gardens at its centre. The course is landscaped to take full advantage of the undulations in the terrain and enjoys some fine coastal views, full use is made of the two rivers that meander and wind their way through and across the area. The result is a course that has achieved excellence with challenges for both low and high handicapped players who can truly test their abilities in ideal conditions creating an unforgettable golfing experience. Accept the challenge and be rewarded is often the byword of the golf course architect, but nowhere is this maxim more appropriate than at Golf du Chateau as water comes into play on a number of the holes, presenting the soft or risky option to the player, depending on the line chosen and his mental tenacity. Test your nerve on the par 4 seventeenth which has an elevated green where your approach shot needs to be accurate to avoid the ignominy of your ball rolling back towards you ending up in the rough.

At the end of the round relax in the bar or restaurant and enjoy a well earned refreshing drink and snack.

The well stocked professional shop offers full equipment and golf cart rental, although those who wish may walk the course. Other facilities include a driving range, a chipping green and a practise putting area. Please note the dress code is normal golf attire only.
