Riviera Golf de Barbossi
Mandelieu-La-Napoule, Alpes-Maritimes
About This Course
Riviera Golf de Barbossi offers a truly unique experience on the French Riviera, combining championship golf with contemporary art in a stunning natural setting. Designed by the legendary Robert Trent Jones Sr., this course is perched on the heights above Cannes Bay, providing spectacular views of the red Estérel mountains and the estate's own vineyards. What sets Barbossi apart is its remarkable sculpture collection. As you play the 18 holes, you encounter significant works of contemporary art strategically placed throughout the course. This fusion of golf and culture creates an experience unlike any other on the Côte d'Azur. The course itself is a classic Trent Jones design, featuring strategic bunkering, undulating greens, and holes that offer multiple paths to the pin depending on your skill and risk tolerance. At 5,736 meters, it provides a fair but engaging test that rewards precise iron play and careful course management. The elevated position offers cooling breezes and dramatic light throughout the day, while the Mediterranean vegetation including umbrella pines and cork oaks frames each hole beautifully. The clubhouse restaurant serves excellent local cuisine with vineyard views, completing an experience that engages all the senses.
