~~~~ Golf ~~~~

Golf, although I have never played it I can see the attraction. Being outside with friends making fun of each others bad shots, hooking and slicing, giving each other tips on how to improve your game and theirs, maybe a small wager on the side then off to the 19th hole, the bar for those of you like me that have not played golf before.

Although we have no golf facility here at Les Royautes, we do have golf links nearby. One is in Nevers, about 45 minutes from us, and is the municipal golf course “ Golf du Nivernais”. It’s an 18 hole, Par 71 course. They have a driving range with 10 covered tees, for some practice maybe, before you go on the course. It also has a 5 hole course for lessons, instruction for all standards of players, a pro shop and an on site restaurant.

The green fee is about 30€ a round. They don’t have a web site but I have it on good authority, “ it’s a very nice set up”. We have leaflets here and I would be pleased to send you one if you wish, or you could phone them direct on 00 33 (0)38 65 81 830 It’s open everyday

The other course is an hour and a half away in Sancerre. Hey, good golf and good wine in the same place what more can you ask for? Golf du Sancerrois is also a 18 hole, par 71, 5820m course. Set in the rolling slopes of the Loire Valley with the back drop of the Sancerre hill.

Facilities include

6 hole practice course
800m2 putting green
Pitching green and bunkers
Driving range with 10 covered tees
Club house, changing room, toilets,
showers, pro-shop, restaurant/bar
and seminar facilities.
