  • Description

    18 holes, Par 71 - 5,535 m

Throughout four years Domaine de Manville slowly and surely took shape and the golf course itself came into being, ceaselessly reworked and refined.

Literally embedded in the rocky setting of Les Baux, the golf course does not seek to be an English green or an oasis. It is part of the landscape, eco-responsible and respectful of the natural resources. Plantings emphasize local species and the atmosphere is fragrant with pine, oak and olive trees. Provence and the Mediterranean influences accompany the changing seasons and color the fairways.

Domaine de Manville was once devoted to agriculture, with sheepfolds and traditional outbuildings defining its existence. And today still, Manville’s heart beats to the drum of daily country life, attentive to the ripening tomatoes, the grape harvest and the olive gathering, the transhumance of the sheep and other signs of the changing seasons.
