Le Manoir Hotel

Set within the woodland and dunes of Le Touquet-Paris-Plage, Le Manoir Hôtel is a 41-room, four-star base at Le Touquet Golf Resort, with Golf du Touquet immediately alongside. A stay puts 45 holes within a 350-hectare golfing estate, split between the 18-hole La Mer and La Forêt courses and the nine-hole Le Manoir. The hotel has a quietly residential feel among the trees, while the golf club brings the practicalities together with its clubhouse, pro shop, locker rooms and Le Spoon restaurant.

La Mer is the dune course, originally laid out by Harry Shapland Colt and later rebuilt to return it to its intended routing. La Forêt, created by Horace Hutchinson and Nick Lane Jackson, takes the game into the wooded part of the estate, providing a distinct companion round to La Mer. Le Manoir offers a shorter nine-hole option, useful for an arrival day or a second game without committing to another full round. Before teeing off, there is a driving range, putting green, pitching green and practice bunker. Green fee holders can use the training areas, while lessons and clinics can be arranged in advance. Buggies, pull trolleys and clubs are available from the golf club.

Rooms range from 24 m² Classic Rooms and Classic Lodges to the 57 m² Senior Suite. The lodges stand apart from the main house and have furnished south-facing terraces, while 40 m² Junior Suites look over the course and include both a bath and shower. Evenings centre on La Table du Manoir, where gourmet cooking is served at dinner and Sunday lunch, with tables on the forest terrace during summer. M Bar is on hand for a cocktail or coffee after the round. A heated outdoor pool opens in high season, and the tennis court comes with rackets and balls supplied.
