Just a stone’s throw from Cannes, in the heart of an estate full of history, the Saint Donat Golf Course welcomes you all year round.

Created through the stroke of Robert Trent Jones Junior’s pen, this magnificent 6,545 yard 71 par course will delight you with the diversity of its layout and its landscapes.

In order that your needs are entirely met, a 24 stall driving range, a compact golf course, 3 practice greens, talented instructors, a 100m² pro-shop, and the restaurant "La Closerie" complete the range of high quality facilities.

The first hole on the full 18-hole course is a relatively easy par 4 with the green behind some large trees on the right. Guarded by bunkers, but it is still quite a testing opener unless you get your drive down the right and then hit a decent second to avoid the hazards to a fairly innocent green. The second is another relatively easy hole, as long as you do not hit to the left, as water skirts the first 150 yards of the hole. A bank on the right gives you a 50-50 chance of the ball coming back down the hill if you are wayward on the other side, but as a short hole, stroke index 15 reflects its difficulty.
