Nampont St Martin is probably the best value golf courses in the Pas-de-Calais.
Half an hour from Le Touquet there lies an almost undiscovered and peaceful place, far away from the overpopulated courses of the coast. Nampont St Martin Golf Club is located around a delightful 15th Century Château. Le Parcours des Cygnes (The course of The Swans) boasts a high quality design and is surrounded by three large lakes joined together by the Authie river, which is the border between the Pas-de-Calais and the Somme.
Some may regret the presence of water hazards at the Nampont Cygnes course but as the director of golf says, these obstacles should only penalize bad shots and wrong club selection. Large fairways and greens where the ball stays on line are also a feature but there are as many as 13 holes with water as a feature so be warned and take plenty of balls!
Nampont St Martin is a real challenge, even the holes that appear simple because they are short turn out to be tricky as they have narrow fairways with trees on either side and water lurking nearby.
The clubhouse offers a warm and friendly welcome, make sure you take the time to sample the lunch and dinner menu as the food is superb.
