Stretching along the coastline from Pas-de-Calais, and South towards Paris and the Loire, Normandy’s varied landscape and rich history make it fascinating to visit.
The region attracts flocks of tourists thanks to its historic coastline, the site of the wartime Normandy landings; be sure to also take in the military cemeteries and the countless D-Day monuments.
The resort towns of Trouville and Deauville offer superb nightlife and a buzzing atmosphere, especially during the summer months, while notable tourist attractions include the Mont Saint-Michel and the incredible tapestry at Bayeux. If you fancy a flutter, Deaville and Trouville are home to France’s most renowned casinos, and with a fine array of golf courses, resorts and attractions, a golf holiday in Normandy is no gamble.
For the travelling golfer, the region has much to offer; dotted along the coastline are idyllic cliff-top courses at Omaha Beach and Etretat.
The resort town of Deauville is home to one of Normandy’s top golf courses, Golf Barriere Deauville, designed in 1929 by Tom Simpson. While further inland Normandy also boasts luscious parkland layouts like Saint-Saens and Golf Du Champ De Bataille.
