What the club says: Saint-Saëns is a 6,572 yard, par 71 course carved through a 200-acre estate next to the Eawy forest, reputed to be one of the most beautiful beech groves in France. Its charm lies in a blend of beauty and diversity, making it a good testing golf course. There are three distinct sections: the valley (crossed by the river "la Varenne"), the forest (narrow fairways and enclosed greens surrounded by trees) and the high plateau (hilly, bunkers, wind). The clubhouse is installed in the 19th century castle.

Great Course & Great Hosts
We are booked to go back for a 4th time in July; the course is a great challenge for most club golfers and we have always found the hotel owners and staff realy relaxed and friendly. When we went last year we found that the food had definitely improved significantly, in particluar the evening meal, you wont find a full English brerakfast but then neither would you really want it if you're going out to play 18 holes. All in all a great venue and only an hour from Le Havre which makes it perfect for those of us that catch the ferry from Portsmouth.Reviewer Rating

Really good value for money. Went on a 3 day 3 round short break with my wife. The staff are excellent and very helpful, although the standard of the food was not as good as I expected, being that the course is in France. The course itself is tricky in places, very well looked after and a good test. I was surprised how wet the course was in places even though there had been weeks of sun before hand, so I suspect the course would be closed a lot in Winter and Spring.
