Golf de Brest Iroise

The golf club Golf de Brest Iroise lies on the grounds of the Parc de Lann Rohou near Saint-Urbain and Landerneau in Brittany. It is embedded in a 220 hectare forest area in the midst of a wild mire landscape. From the next biggest city of Brest, the most western city in France, as well as its airport, Golf de Brest Iroise is reachable in half an hour via the N165. The club features a 27 hole park, made up of an 18 hole and a 9 hole course. The 18 hole parkland course with par 72 is based on the design by British golf course architect Michael Fenn, who created it in 1976. The “Old Course” is 6008 meters long and designed as a championship course. With its doglegs, bunkers, few water hazards, and tree-lined fairways, it offers considerable athletic and tactical challenges for golfers of all handicaps. Golf de Brest Iroise also boasts a 9 hole links course with par 37. The 3155 meter long “New Course” is considered very challenging and offers a wonderful view of the mountains of Arrée and the sea passage of Iroise from its terrain. The golf park belongs to the most popular in Brittany and also provides a 6 hole compact course, a driving range with 22 tees, ten of which are covered, as well as a putting green for golfers eager to practice.
