Château de la Begude occupies a genuinely special position within the grounds of the Opio Valbonne golf course, yet it carries the feel of deepest Provence — mature trees, landscaped gardens and views stretching towards the mountains of the national park create an atmosphere of complete tranquillity. Located in the upmarket village of Opio, the château is only 25 minutes from Nice Airport and 30 minutes from Cannes, so the French Riviera is always within easy reach.
The on-site course at Opio Valbonne is a relaxed, easy-walking layout that suits golfers of all abilities, and with Cannes Mougins, Royal Mougins, Saint-Donat and Claux Amic all within a 30-minute drive, there is no shortage of alternatives for a South of France golf package. Five courses within 15 minutes is genuinely rare at this level of golf holiday destination.
Bedrooms and suites blend modern comfort with traditional Provençal character, and all look out over either the park or the golf course. Two restaurants cover lunch and dinner — a Mediterranean menu by day and a more refined gastronomic experience in the evening — while a lounge bar, swimming pool and tennis courts round out the facilities. Château de la Begude represents excellent value for a play-and-stay golf holiday in the South of France.
