A delightful setting populated by deer
The original layout was designed by the English architect Bill Baker in 1990. For almost ten years, the architect Jean-Claude Cornillot carried out a number of changes and renovations. The 18-hole “Les Chênes” golf course at Golf des Yvelines regularly hosts high-level amateur events, an indicator of its quality and the recognition it enjoys.
A demanding, technical golf course in a woodland setting. You need to demonstrate precision from your first stroke; the greens offer great variety and are well protected.

Many bunkers at drive height close the angle of play on this par 4 whose green is very protected.

With a Par 5 allowing for multiple game strategies, hitters can hope to reach the green in 2 strokes. The fairway is very narrow from the last 100 meters.

                                      The Pro's Advice
The shortest Par 4 on the golf course. A very large and deep green, it is important to be close to the hole in order to avoid 3 recurring putts.

Superb Par 4 a dogleg left/right, renovated and very open in comparison with its original layout. Take an extra club during the green attack.
