Claux Amic
First opened in 1992, the course at Golf du Claux Amic was designed by Jean-Pascal Fourés and its one of a dozen golf projects the French architect has been involved in over the last couple of decades.
Located within an oak forest that was formerly used as a hunting ground, fairways sit at an altitude of around 600 metres above sea level, close to the small town of Grasse, the world’s perfume capital.
Narrow fairways dominate proceedings here and for those who veer from the designated playing corridors, there are literally tons of small rocks and stones strewn amongst the rough to hinder the search for stray golf balls.
The course reopened in 2012 following the construction of a modern clubhouse, the installation of a new golf academy and the remodeling of several holes, including the par four 1st, par three 3rd and par five 18th. A new hotel and associated apartments are scheduled to open for business in early 2016.
