Beauty meets science

Overseas Living
Since its inception, the legendary golf resort Domaine de Terre Blanche has attracted golf enthusiasts from around the globe for its luxury, beauty and wellbeing. But that is not all: the golf resort is also unique in its concept of golfing tuition
Nestled in the rolling countryside of Provence, the resort has become the homestead of an exclusive international community of golf aficionados. They enjoy the French way of living in their villas on generous plots of land measuring between 2,000m² and 10,000m². The investment is worthwhile: owning property up here amid the wild Provençal landscape gives automatic access to membership of one of the most desirable golf communities on the continent.The golf club
Membership of Terre Blanche Golf Club is by invitation only. Each new member must be invited for membership by a current member of Terre Blanche Golf Club, and approved by the Club’s Admission Committee. Club members carefully consider their responsibility and privilege as sponsors.
The club is home to a perfect setting for two of Europe’s finest golf courses, completed by one of the most comprehensive training and development centres in the world. A Biomecaswing Centre and a David Leadbetter Academy ensure perfect golfing tuition not only for members.
The Biomecaswing method
The unique Biomecaswing concept works for amateurs as well as for professionals of all levels and ages. It is based on a scientific biomechanical method. The strength of this concept: Biomecaswing will increase the golfer’s ability to systematically develop his natural strength regarding his swing. Not only will he be playing better golf but he will also feel much less exhausted. Here in the sun of Provence he will learn to better understand and listen to his body and thus be able to give it the chance of expressing all its capabilities.
Golfing Eldorado
The core of the resort was conceived from the onset as an Eldorado for golfers. The visionary concept has been meticulously turned into reality, bathed in the glorious sunshine of Provence. Dave Thomas, the designer of such famous courses as the Belfry, was chosen to breathe life into the idea for two wonderful championship courses named Le Riou and Le Château.
With a masterly touch, he transformed the untamed, hilly landscape into two courses that are so different in character, and yet have such a similar effect on the players. Anyone playing here pauses before each shot to take in the beauty of the view.
Terre Blanche Golf Club is a very private affair – and a dream come true of absolute quality of life, combining calm with beauty, luxury with security, and exclusivity with a love of golf; the type of universe in fact that one would wish to share with only a very privileged few.
