Rating Snapshot
About
Opened in 1929, a few minutes from Deauville, the Golf Barrière Deauville was designed by Tom Simpson and Henry Cotton and is set in a 70-hectare park. The Golf Barrière Deauville is considered one of the most beautiful golf courses in France. The 18-hole course enjoys unobstructed views across the Pays d'Auge valley and the sea, whilst the 9-hole course is deep in the heart of the wooded Normandy countryside.
The club house at the Golf Barrière Deauville opens through its large bay windows onto the perfect environment for relaxation. Hôtel Barrière L'Hôtel du Golf features 170 completely renovated rooms in a chic, laidback atmosphere steeped in history and understated luxury.

Mooie baan, helaas erg droog.
De baan is mooi aangelegd en goed onderhouden.
Jammer dat de faiways door de droogte erg bruin waren.
De greens waren best moeilijk maar niet heel snel.
Great course
Wide fairways, well maintained. Unforrunately the bathroom was locked
This course is wonderful
It ‘s a very old course wide fairways, lots of bunkers. Playable for all levels. The only negative is the locked bathroom at hole 7.
A nice routing close to town
Englishman Tom Simpson was good enough as an Golden Era architect to inspire someone to form The Tom Simpson Society to commemorate his work. That's all the endorsement you need to know about this hilly and pleasant Simpson design in the Normandy region of France.
The only complaint would be that the course probably needs a renovation by a modern architect to reach its full potential. The bones are there, because the routing is good, but the conditioning and presentation don't always live up to Simpson's lofty legacy. Rocks in the bunkers and lots of patchy spots give the track a "muni" feel.
There are still many things to praise, though, too. Occasional views of the ocean and the seaside town of Deauville provided pleasant surprises throughout the round, as did a ruin of a castle wall on the back nine. Samuel Jackson and Morgan Freeman, who have come to Deauville for its popular film festival, have played the course, so it's never a bad idea to follow in the footsteps of Hollywood A-listers.
