The Golf de Moliets is a remarkable golf course laid out in the pine
forests of Les Landes (for 13 holes) and along the coast (5 holes). A
typical Robert Trent Jones design, where the technical and strategic
challenges reflect an in-depth knowledge of golf. While the more proficient
golfer will find this a tough challenge, playing from the forward tees is
funnily enough, often more conducive to error. The famous jagged bunkers
are a remarkable form of defense for the greens, three of which are
virtually blind, and the putting surfaces are neatly but never excessively
contoured.
The Golf de Moliets, voted best of golf course in Aguitaine in 2005,
and is classed in the Top Ten French golf courses and figures in the top 25
European courses.
