- Closest Continental resort by car climbs four places to 16th
- La Mer, France’s No.1 links, ranked sixth best resort course in Europe
- Special Top 100 golf breaks offers for spring 2021
(Le Touquet, France – 27 October, 2020) Le Touquet Golf Resort's successful, multi-million euro transformation has been recognised in Golf World's new Top 100 Golf Resorts in Continental Europe rankings.
Featuring the classic, restored La Mer course, France’s No.1 links, a new, contemporary design clubhouse and the beautifully refurbished, boutique-style Le Manoir Hôtel, Le Touquet Golf Resort has climbed four places to No.16 in the influential list.
Laurent Boissonnas, CEO of Le Touquet Golf Resort, said: “A century after Le Touquet was Europe's most fashionable resort in the 'Roaring Twenties', offering the best of links golf, wide open beaches and chic French hospitality, we are preparing for a new era of golf travel.
“With more golfers looking to drive and stay from spring 2021, Le Touquet is the closest Continental golf resort to the UK, and we look forward to welcoming back our British guests to a destination officially confirmed as one of the finest in Europe.”
Le Touquet Golf Resort is marking its new ranking with a choice of special offer golf breaks for spring 2021, with prices starting at €190 per person. (Full details below).
Just 43 miles from Calais along the A16, Le Touquet Golf Resort is easily accessible by car from the UK.
La Mer course received industry-wide praise for its recent restoration, which included the recovery of four Harry Colt and Charles 'Hugh' Alison original holes lost to the dunes during World War II.
The superb layout is included at number six in Golf World’s best European resort courses, and golfers also have the scenic La Forêt course as well as the beautiful nine-hole Le Manoir at their disposal during a golf break.
Le Touquet Golf Resort’s transformation has also included the building of a stunning contemporary clubhouse, designed taking inspiration from the vast beaches and dunes which characterise France’s north-east coast, and the complete refurbishment of Le Manoir Hôtel into a modern boutique with individually styled rooms, suites and bungalows.
Golfers looking to take advantage of the offers should call +33 (0)3 21 06 28 00 and quote ‘Top 100’.
