France Golf Deals to Watch, 2026

How France golf packages work
French golf splits cleanly by geography. The northern coast, an easy self drive from the Channel, sells short stay and play breaks around Hardelot and Le Touquet that pair a hotel with two or three rounds, and it is where most value led trips start. Further south and around Paris the trips run longer and lean on marquee courses, with the Ryder Cup host Le Golf National the headline name. Operators bundle Channel crossings into many northern packages, which keeps the driving and the cost down.
Below is how the main package shapes break down for 2026 and where the value sits. Every figure is a planning guide rather than a quote, since rates move with hotel, season and the number of rounds, and you should always confirm directly before booking.

The deals worth watching
The northern coast short break
The value entry point to French golf is the northern coast short break, from around £159 per person for one night with breakfast, dinner and two rounds at Le Touquet or Hardelot. Hardelot's Les Pins is a past French Open host and Les Dunes one of the region's must play courses, and many packages bundle the Channel crossing, which makes this the cleanest cheap golf weekend from the south of England. It is the trip that defines northern France for value.
The multi night package and golf pass
For a fuller stay, multi night northern packages run from around EUR 330 per person for three nights with a green fee at a coastal hotel up to around EUR 593 per person at a luxury property such as Barriere Le Westminster in Le Touquet. If you want to play more, the Opal Coast golf pass bundles rounds across Le Touquet and Hardelot, valid seven days in high season from 19 April to 13 October, with an EUR 17 supplement on weekend mornings and public holidays. Pair the pass with a flexible hotel and you can roam both clubs on your own schedule.
Le Golf National and the south
For a marquee trip, Le Golf National near Paris is the headline, the Ryder Cup host whose Albatros course reopens after a redesign on 1 September 2026, with green fees around EUR 90 to 125. Treat it as the centrepiece of a Paris stay rather than a value play. Further south the resort weeks run longer and warmer, and suit golfers who want a settled base with several rounds; confirm contents and dates directly, since they change with season.
Our take
France is two golf trips in one, the value led northern coast and the marquee rounds near Paris and the south, and the right shape depends on which you are after. For value, a self drive northern break around Hardelot and Le Touquet with the crossing bundled is hard to beat, and the Opal Coast pass lets you roam if you want more golf.
Our advice is to use the northern coast for a cheap weekend and save Le Golf National as a centrepiece on a longer Paris trip, timed after the Albatros reopening in September 2026. Our France golf hub and the best golf courses in France list set out where to play, and the best time to play France guide helps you time it. Tell us your dates and our team can build the trip and price it to the head.
