1A castle golf in France!

The new Scottish manager Denis has already made a difference! If you take the extremely hot and dry summer as a basis, we found that the place has a 3 in maintenance condition. Only green 1 was over, the rest of the greens were not too fast but neat. The fairways are currently burned out everywhere in France, you can not blame the place / club.
A car is recommended on the very hilly and partly extensive terrain. The design and layout is good and spectacular in parts around the chateau! I've played some impressive chateau courses in the castle park all over Europe, but it's never been so often right up against the castle wall...! Lanes 1 - 11 and 17 & 18 are some absolutely spectacular! We played the course as a sundowner with €39 plus €10 (1/2Car). Anyone who loves parkland golf and chateaux shouldn't miss this course, which we believe is on a new path in course maintenance!

Basically a nice place, unfortunately a catastrophic state of maintenance.

We played the course in August and had a long journey. Unfortunately, this was not worth it in any way. The layout, especially of the front 9, is really nice and would be fun if it were playable. In my more than 20 years of playing practice, I cannot remember having played such a dry and unkempt course at this level... Since it is very hilly and sloping, it is purely a matter of luck where the ball hits and then bounces. Even the most beautiful layout is of no use if chance dominates the game. The back 9 are rather unspectacular, but were just as dry. Of course, you don't expect a five-star level in the Schlosshotel. So the rooms were okay for the price. The breakfast is extremely modest. Dinner was just bland and uninspired. The green fee is cheap at € 50, but still too expensive in view of the maintenance condition. You can tell everywhere that there are no capacities or resources available to hold what is basically a nice place in the necessary form... It's a pity, actually.

Great space layout with limited space maintenance

The layout of the square and the view of the castle from different directions is very nice. But you realize that you have limited resources to maintain the place. By the end of 2018, the fairways of the hot summer were completely burned and rock hard. That makes it difficult and sometimes unpredictable on many inclines. On the other hand, you can also do as an amateur times on a sloping hole a 300m tee. The greens were ok, but not perfect. If you are ready to accept the condition, it is still a great place; but maybe something for spring, when the fairways are still green and softer. The directly adjacent castle hotel is good and makes it logistically easy.
