Golf du Roncemay, Golf course in Saint-Aubin-Château-Neuf, France.
Golf du Roncemay is an 18-hole course in Saint-Aubin-Château-Neuf that winds through forests and plateaus across the terrain. The layout alternates between densely wooded sections and open areas with views toward the surrounding countryside.
Founded in 1989 by Jean Garaïalde and Jeremy Pern, the course was designed to work with existing century-old oak, beech, and birch trees already on the land. These mature trees became central to how the course developed over time.
The course blends French golfing traditions with Scottish links-style design, visible in how its greens are maintained and how water features shape play across the terrain.
The facility includes a driving range with both covered and grass hitting areas, practice greens, and a dedicated training zone with three holes. The rolling terrain means comfortable footwear is important for getting around the course.
The fifth hole features a notable water hazard that often catches golfers off guard and changes how they must approach their shot. This distinctive challenge is what many players remember most about the course layout.
