Nestled in lush green surroundings, four golf courses spread across Lozère, Margeride, the Lot Valley and the Cévennes offer the chance to combine the enjoyment of the game with the beauty of nature.
The 18-hole Gorges du Tarn golf course
With its 18 holes and a 5,452-metre course set among strolling, wooded countryside over which vultures soar, the Gorges du Tarn golf course, near La Canourgue, ranks amongst the very best. Designed by architect Chris Pittman, the narrowness of its fairways and the quality of its greens ensure it is a technically challenging course. On site, golfers can make use of a driving range with fifteen mats for practice, individual lessons (available for pairs, trios or groups of four), courses, and golf trolley hire… The clubhouse, housed in a former farmhouse, features a shop, changing rooms, a bar and restaurant, and a menu of local specialities.
The majesty of Langogne Golf Course
Overlooking the vast expanses of Lake Naussac, the Gévaudan Golf Course lies adjacent to the Domaine de Barres, which has been converted into a four-star hotel. At an altitude of over 1,000 metres, this nine-hole course, stretching over 2,700 metres, is a perfect match for the vast expanses of the Margeride. In a setting that fosters peace and tranquillity, its immense greens and wide fairways offer a wide variety of challenges and thrilling experiences. For those wishing to improve their game, a range of courses is available from a qualified instructor.
Golf for all at La Garde-Guérin
Just one kilometre from La Garde-Guérin, a medieval village listed as one of the ‘Most Beautiful Villages in France’, this golf course charms visitors with its rustic and unique character. As Michel André, the chairman, explains, ‘The course has been run as a not-for-profit organisation since 1986. Open and maintained all year round, this golf course aims to be accessible to everyone. With its nine holes spanning 1,864 metres, the course combines enchanting scenery with technical challenges. All our visitors are captivated by the beauty of the site and the quality of the welcome, which is simple and friendly.”
