Day 8

Experience the markets and vibrant centre of Aix-en-Provence for lunch before arriving at the luxurious Terre Blanche Resort for a 3-night stay.

 

Day 9

Play Golf at Terre Blache (Le Riou). Exclusive to members and resort guests only, the Riou course is considerably shorter than its sibling (Chataeu Course). Although, some suggest it may be even more challenging with its narrow tree lined fairways using the higher reaches of the hilly landscape.

Relax and enjoy the fabulous 5-star facilities on offer.

Play Golf at Terre Blache (Chataeu Course).

A joy to play and test the very best. 

Allow time in the afternoon to experience the beautiful old towns such as Fayence, Tourettes and Callian. Enjoy dinner in Fayence
