Play the uncrowded, great value golf courses of Western France with Brittany Ferries

The 2010 Brittany Ferries Golf Breaks brochure, with 60 great courses in Brittany, Normandy and the Loire, is now out. Brittany Ferries has picked the best there are for this brochure and, because it is a French company and knows France better than perhaps any other tour operator, it has been able to negotiate some great rates at hotels and courses. Plus, with a saving of 12.5% on all bookings made by 31st December and a "price match guarantee" giving the reassurance that you won't find cheaper elsewhere, these holidays really do offer unbeatable value.

It is indeed fortunate for us that the French haven't really taken to golf in the numbers that they have in the UK, which means that their courses tend to be uncrowded, especially in Western France.
 
France is a world apart from the UK and yet it is only a short hop across the channel. With its outstanding cuisine, wine, cheeses and unique ambience, the après-golf is part of what makes a golf break in France so memorable and so much fun.

With Brittany Ferries, getting there is very much part of the holiday and you can make the most of your precious time by crossing the channel overnight. With a fleet of luxury cruise-ferries, offering en-suite cabins, fine French restaurants and stylish bars, they can provide a uniquely relaxing way of travelling.

But if long crossings are not for you, there are high-speed services to whisk you to France in as little as 2 ¼ hours.

Taking your own car means that you can take your own trolley as well as your golf bag with no hidden baggage costs; and there is the reassurance that your clubs won't get lost!

Whether you are a couple or a group, the Brittany Ferries golf desk, staffed by keen golfers with a wealth of local knowledge, can advise not only on the courses, but on restaurants and the sights you shouldn't miss. They can even book you a tailor-made package at no extra cost.

Golf course information, a great hotel selection and ferry timetables can be found at www.brittanyferries.co.uk/golf and reservations can be made on 0871 244 0808 or golfdesk@brittanyferries.com.
