For a good long while, the finest golf-specific accommodation I had ever experienced was the Lodge at Doonbeg, a spot-on reproduction of an 18th century Irish manor house where they burn peat to complete effect.

Ryder Cup awarded to France

PerryGolf Staff

It was announced on Tuesday that the biggest event in golf, the Ryder Cup, will be contested in France in 2018. This is a historic announcement as it is only the second time the Ryder Cup Matches will be played in Continental Europe. Le Golf National beat off strong opposition from courses in Germany, Holland, Portugal and Spain; but the decision was well-received by all players on the European Tour.

Le Golf National has been home to The French Open – one of the biggest tournaments on the European Tour – for the last 10 years and it is a course which features in most of our PerryGolf trips to France.  

I’m sure it will be a very popular destination in 2018!
