Les Bordes Golf: Avis

C’est à l’occasion de la remise du premier prix récompensant le meilleur club de golf 2023 de Leading Courses que j'ai eu la chance de retirer un golf de ma Bucket List. Après avoir passé la porte sécurisée, parcouru cette très belle route sinueuse parcourant ce domaine de quelques 240 hectares vous arrivez au Saint Graal. L’ambiance est de mise dès votre arrivée, deux… Plus

Les Bordes is really 'Hors Categorie' meaning hard to fit into a ranking with normal clubs. The private nature and subsequent budget makes it one of the best golf-experiences in the world. With the addition of the New Course and the 10 par 3 holes of the Wild Piglet I think it has made a giant stride in attracting different kinds of players. Also the investments in real e… Plus

Deux parcours d'exception, un lieu mythique... Les Bordes, c'est l'exception française avec un charme et une classe "so british".

I was on holiday in Paris in August, but when we received the opportunity to play the New course at Les Bordes we didn't hesitate to drive one day from Paris to Orléans (2,5 hour). The domain at Les Bordes is just huge and it starts with a nice, long road to the clubhouse. I was given a ride with a big cart to the New course just to give me an explaination of where it… Plus

20220804 Golf Les Bordes new (voormiddag) Welkom: Zeer vriendelijk Putting green is extreem zeer groot met een redelijke snelheid Driving range was vanop mat en gras beschikbaar (eerste was gesloten) Chipping green niet gezien Enkel foto’s genomen omdat buggy’s nog niet op het nieuwe terrein mogen komen (Wegens oververhitting (+40°C) is het toestel oververhit geworden) … Plus

Goed, beter, best! Als je al heel veel mooie banen hebt gezien en dus een beetje verwend bent, vraag je je altijd weer af wat er nog beter, mooier, uitdagender kan. Wat blijkt, het kan. Les Bordes is van de absolute buitencategorie. De omgeving is prachtig, de holes van zowel de Old Course, de New Course als Wild Piglet (par 3) zijn zeer uitdagend en de faciliteiten zijn … Plus

Last year we saw that the Gill Hanse designed New Course was almost ready for play so we had to get back to try it out. Believe me it delivered... When you go to the first tee be sure to have some extra time to try out the 2600 m2 Himalayas putting green, it is so big that you can easily try out a 50m put. This is not the only thing that reminded me of the classic scottis… Plus

I decided to write this entire review about THE WILD PIGLET the new Gil Hanse short course that was opened recently because it was a fantastic experience playing it and I think there is a great future for these short courses like The Cradle at Pinehurst, Mountain Top at Big Cedar and The Baths at Blackwolf Run at Whistling Straits. I think that The Wild Piglet is the firs… Plus

This is the best golf club I have visited so far. This seriously is the next level of luxury. First of all: this club is hidden. They have an anonymous gate on a small dead end road. As soon as that gate opens, the magic begins. At the parking lot we were picked up by Michel in a large buggy (Michel is a wonderful host!). From then onwards there are no more worries. A su… Plus

I hesitated for days prior to finally decide to write a review about Les Bordes. When you find a Gem a lot of people prefer to keep it as secret as possible.. I play golf for 35 years and had the chance to play some of the best courses in the world in Scotland, Ireland, UK, Asia, South Africa, US, South America to name few. Nothing can be compared to Les Bordes. Its a mix… Plus

Historiquement l’un des plus beaux parcours de France mais le dessin très « Target golf » et la difficulté peuvent déplaire. L’ouverture prochaine (printemps 2021) d’un nouveau 18 trous, ainsi qu’un magnifique compact associés à d’autres installations vont redonner un coup de frais à l’ensemble. Reste qu’entièrement privé, il faudra trouver la bonne clé pour y accéder.

Les Bordes was founded by Baron Le Bich (the founder of BIC ballpoints) and a Japanese friend of his. The Old Course is designed by Robbert von Hagge and probably one of the toughest courses I ever played. Currently they are finishing the New Course (18 holes) and The Wild Piglet (a 10 Hole short course) both by Gil Hanse. I think those will be excellent additions for Les… Plus

Top course. Doesn’t get much better than this.

Nous avons eu la chance de le jouer il y a longtemps et nous aimerions le rejouer Comment faire! Merci.

Very good service and nice Clubhouse.

I have played it twice as a guest of a member. It was a real pleasure because the course was just for us, nobody there, just my group. Incredible the design and the natural surroundings, a authentic privilege to pibe there!

Les Bordes is quite simply the best course I have ever played. Beautiful course design, great facilities and Michelin star quality food. Can’t wait to go back!

La perfection existe. J'ai eu la chance de pouvoir jouer ce parcours mythique. Sa réputation n'est pas surfaite Quel plaisir, quel beauté. Tout est parfait Après avoir découvert Valderrama, j'ai joué aux Bordes qui est sans conteste dans le top 3 Européen.

« Là, tout n’est qu’ordre et beauté, Luxe, calme et volupté... » (golfique!) Un lieu enchanteur, un parcours magnifique dans la forêt et la lande. Chaque trou est un plaisir visuel et golfique. Tout est manucuré et quasiment immaculé : les départs, les fairways (une vraie moquette), les bunkers (nombreux) et les greens (souvent grands et rapides). Une équipe de 17 perso… Plus

I am a member and Les Bordes is an amazing golf course, club and overall experience for members and guests alike. I am writing in response to the latest review by Delphine. It’s incomprehensible that the website would allow someone who clearly states that she hasn’t been to the club (due to the very fact that it is private and which she apparently can’t accept) to rate th… Plus
