Hardelot (Les Dunes)
Golf d'Hardelot (Les Dunes course): As the more recent of the two Hardelot courses, Les Dunes does not quite have the cachet or style of Tom Simpson's Les Pins layout (located just a kilometre away).
At just over 5,800 yards from the tips, and with six not overly long par-3s, you may be forgiven for thinking Les Dunes will not thoroughly examine your game. But there you'd be wrong. This often hilly and (at times) tightly tree-lined course will most assuredly test all aspects of your game.
The uphill par-4 opening hole provides a good example of what lies ahead on Les Dunes. Like many holes, it contains considerable elevation change, deep crinkly-edged bunkering and a testing approach to an elevated two-tier green. Driving accuracy is one of the essentials to good scoring here. So too the ability to weigh-up the elevation changes, and execute an adept short game should you miss the greens.
The quiet setting amongst mature pine trees, and a generally good level of greenkeeping ensures the popularity of Les Dunes with visiting golfers. Although many houses are seen immediately beyond the course boundary, they rarely detract from this ever-undulating and attractive layout. If the course had been built closer to modern-day championship length, it would certainly pose a bigger challenge to Les Pins for top honours in Hardelot.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance. Handicap required.

The Masters: The 88th Masters Tournament at Augusta National sees LIV golfer Jon Rahm defend his title against the world’s best. Pressing hard will be world No.1 and 2022 champion Scottie Scheffler and world No.2 Rory McIlroy (April 11-14).
Chevron Championship: the women’s major championship season gets underway for the second year at its new Carlton Woods home outside Houston, Texas. World No.2 Lilia Vu defends (April 18-21).
Nelly Korda: records a perfect start to 2024 with five wins out of her last five starts on the LPGA Tour. Winning the Chevron Championship also brought the second major championship win of her career.
Scottie Scheffler: narrowly missed out on matching Nelly Korda's five wins in five starts, when he placed second at the Houston Open. Either side of that, he won The Arnold Palmer, The Players, and then The Masters and The Heritage.
Marco Simone Golf & Country Club: With a clubhouse that might befit a Roman Emperor, and a golf course to match, you can be sure of a memorable outing at Rome's most talked about golf facility.
