Suggestions Please

Hi,

 Im looking to book a long weekend away in middle of September. There will be 5 of us going, two couples and my daughter(2yrs).

The main inspiration for going will be golf, but we will also need something for the ladies to do and also child safe areas. Obvioulsy decent weather.

Im thinking of a nice golf resort, preferably with a spa or similar close by and within walking distance to the local village for restuarants etc.

Happy to fly and want to remain in europe, ideally France, Spain or Portugal.

I would appreciate any suggestions or ideas that anyone may have or experiances of similart trips that they could share.

Many thanks

I have stayed here and it has everything, I can assure you. Five golf courses which you can play for free, a craft centre to keep the ladies occupied and in a beautiful settting. September will be good for the weather.

No problem, Oli, may I suggest the many good deals to be had in Northern France, great courses which are easy to get to with your own car.

A week-end to either Spain or Portugal is just not value for money IMO.

I have stayed at Le Manoir and The Westminster. Le Manoir is the cheaper option but the Westminster has a restaurant to die for.

Le Touquet is a seaside resort, so plenty to do.

La Mer is as difficult a course as you will find anywhere, a true links, but La Foret is a nice course also.

You could also stay at Hardelot which has two very good courses, The Dunes and The Pines and they are always doing deals.
