Château de Taulane

About This Course

Château de Taulane represents one of golf's most spectacular hidden gems, a Gary Player-designed masterpiece perched at 1,000 meters altitude in the heart of the magnificent Gorges du Verdon. Far from the coastal bustle of the Riviera, this course offers absolute tranquility combined with breathtaking mountain scenery that ranks among the most dramatic in European golf. Gary Player's design takes full advantage of the extraordinary natural setting, with holes that frame stunning views of the surrounding peaks and valleys. At 6,300 meters, the course provides a serious championship test, though the mountain air means balls travel farther than at sea level. Strategic bunkering and carefully shaped greens create challenge without unfairness. The conditioning at Taulane is exceptional—immaculate fairways and greens that would be the envy of many more accessible venues. The isolation of the location means this course never feels crowded, offering a peaceful playing experience that allows full appreciation of the surroundings. The château itself provides elegant accommodation for those wishing to extend their stay, and the restaurant serves refined cuisine with local influences. The journey to reach Taulane takes you through some of the most spectacular scenery in Provence, making the trip itself part of the experience. This is truly a bucket-list course for any serious golfer visiting the South of France.
