Golf de la Porcelaine

Hole 2 at Golf de la Porcelaine sets the tone early: a downhill tee shot to an island green that leaves no margin for error. The course, designed by Jean Garaïalde, plays 6,042 meters over 18 holes to a par of 72 in Panazol, Nouvelle-Aquitaine, France. The layout moves through forests and a valley setting, with streams, water features, bunkers, and varied relief shaping most holes. Hole 8 is a par 5 with out-of-bounds running along the right fairway toward a small road, and hole 18 is a short par 5 with water on the right and bunkers leading back to a view of the clubhouse. The course holds the Golf pour la Biodiversité label awarded in 2023 by the Fédération Française de Golf. Practice facilities include a driving range 300 meters deep with covered bays, an 18-hole putting green, and a dedicated short-game and bunker zone. A Junior Académie Golf serves players aged 3 to 18. The restaurant seats 150, is open to golfers and the public, and serves a local-products menu with views of holes 1 and 18.
