| During
your next golf holiday play on the always peaceful courses of the
Limousin. There are nine different golf courses within the region,
among which the prestigious ‘Golf de la Porcelaine’ (included
in the top thousand European golf courses according to the Peugeot
Golf Guide)
The
courses have been laid out in the beautiful scenery of the Limousin, the
green heart of France. Here you can still play golf at leisure: there
are no starting times, with the exception of a few competition days.
A
good opportunity to try the game the French way: the first nine holes in
the morning, followed by an extensive lunch at the clubhouse and the
remaining nine holes in the afternoon.
And
of course a personal welcome, an excellent dinner, and a first-rate room
await you at the l’Abbey du Palais. Check our golf
arrangements.
The golf courses
Less
than 5 minutes from l’Abbey du Palais you will find a short
(1.205 m.) but challenging nine-holes par 28 course Golf de Bourganeuf. ‘This
course is an absolute must because of the adventure, a very nice
start for the bigger challenges on La Porcelaine.’
According to Cesare Kruisheer with Equipe Golf Publishing House.
At
five minutes from the centre of Limoges the municipal 18 hole golf
course of Limoges Saint-Lazare is located. An attractive,
professional course of 6.22m with wide fairways. Characteristic
features: par 72, slope 120-124.
Much
difference in height and a splendid view await you at Golf Naturel Du
Chammet on the plateau de Millevaches. Charachteristic features: 9
holes, par 35, slope 113.
And
of course you will tee off at the prestigious course Golf de La
Porcelaine, 10 holes, par 72, slope 135.
Elegance
magazine
writes in an article about our golf arrangements (March addition 2004):
‘Challenging
course, laid out with many dog legs and a multitude of obstacles, such
as artfully placed bunkers and wicked water parties. Designing this golf
course the architect has made optimal use of the beautiful hilly scenery;
which has given an excellent result.’
And
if you don’t mind a 1,5 and 2 hours’ drive you can add another 4
following courses: Golf de Saint-Junien (18 holes), Golf de
Neuvic d’Ussel (2x 9 holes), Golf de Brive (18 holes) and Golf
de Coiraux (18 holes).

atmosphere and good food, we have made up two attractive arrangements.
