Le Chateau De Taulane

Château de Taulane is an 18th-century Provençal escape tucked into the hills near the Verdon, combining a characterful château stay with golf that's well worth the trip. The on-site course was designed by South African legend Gary Player, the first layout he created in France, and it makes the most of the setting with forest views, lakes and plenty of elevation.

If you're travelling with a mixed group, you're covered. There's a heated indoor pool, sauna, hammam and jacuzzi for recovery days, plus tennis and scenic walking routes right from the doorstep. Head a little further out and the Verdon Gorge opens up rafting, climbing and big-view adventures for non-golfers who want more than a poolside break.

Food is a key part of the stay. The Marquise de Lisle restaurant leans into Provençal flavours with a refined touch, and the fireside bar is made for a post-round nightcap. The terrace is ideal for lunch or an aperitif, with mountain views that shift with the light.

The venue also works nicely as a base if you want to play further afield, as the course is part of the Côte d'Azur Golf Pass. Speak to our team and we'll help you build the right mix of rounds, nights and tee times across the region.

Who is this for?
Golfers looking for a Player-designed course in a historic setting, couples wanting a mix of golf and gastronomy, and groups who value access to multiple courses via the Côte d'Azur Golf Pass.

Who is it best for?
Golfers who enjoy strategic, elevation-based layouts and anyone seeking a refined escape in the Provençal countryside with outstanding food and easy access to outdoor pursuits. Ideal for three to five nights if you want to play on-site plus one or two pass courses nearby.

Le Chateau De Taulane

Exquisitely carved into the mature woodland of the hilly landscape inland from the famous Mediterranean coastline, the course offers amazing views, as well as a stern test of golf. From the championship tee markers, Chateau de Taulane can be stretched to 6,824 yards, and although the immaculate fairways are relatively wide, wayward striking will see you quickly come to grief.

The stunning landscape provides a beautifully secluded round in the foothills, and the great versatility makes Chateau de Taulane an appropriate challenge for all, from the average golfing tourist to the highly skilled player. Chateau de Taulane is without doubt one of the premier courses in the South East region, and certainly merits the drive in from the coast during your golf holiday.

The long dog-leg 18th is a great climax to the hole - beware of the lake that guards the front-right of the green, it can be a card-wrecker!

Accommodation at Le Chateau De Taulane

Set across the original château, converted stables and tasteful outbuildings, the 45 bedrooms at Château de Taulane blend 18th-century charm with modern comfort. Each room is decorated in classic Provençal style, with warm tones, quality fabrics and enough space to feel like a private retreat rather than a standard hotel room. The estate's layout means many rooms overlook either the golf course or the surrounding forests and lakes, with views that shift with the seasons.

For golfers, the setup works well. The course wraps around the property, so access is immediate, and the practice facilities are on-site. After a round, the heated indoor pool, sauna, hammam and jacuzzi provide solid recovery options, while the fitness suite is well equipped for those who want to maintain their routine. Tennis courts and outdoor pursuits such as 4x4 off-road driving and hiking are also available, making the estate suitable for mixed groups or non-golfers who want more than a poolside break.

The Marquise de Lisle is the estate's dining centrepiece, where the head chef takes southern French ingredients and applies a refined, modern approach. Expect dishes that showcase the region, local produce and bold, clean flavours. You'll find plenty of local bottles alongside classics that pair well with Provençal cooking. Service throughout the estate is attentive, with staff who understand the rhythm of a golf-focused stay.

The bar, with its open fireplace, is a comfortable spot for an evening drink, while the terrace offers mountain views and a more relaxed setting for lunch or an aperitif. Bring your camera for the terrace at sunset, it's a view worth capturing.

Château de Taulane suits golfers who want a base that combines a Player-designed course with access to the wider Côte d'Azur Golf Pass network, plus the kind of food, setting and facilities that make it easy to settle in for several nights. It's a strong choice for couples, small groups and anyone who values a historic property with genuine character and a location that opens up the best of Provence. Great for a long weekend if you want golf and good food without the faff.
