Terre Blanche Golf Club
A Dave Thomas design in the Provençal hills above Cannes — one of southern France's most complete resort golf experiences.
Course overview
Terre Blanche Golf Club opened in 2004 as the flagship amenity of the five-star Terre Blanche Hotel Spa Golf Resort near Tourrettes in the Var. The Le Château course was designed by Dave Thomas and stretches to 6,616 metres through undulating Provençal landscape of cork oaks, lavender, and umbrella pines. Wide fairways give way to large, tiered greens, and panoramic views of the Esterel massif accompany golfers throughout the round.
