Najeti Hotel du Parc

Hôtel du Parc sits in Hardelot on France’s Côte d’Opale, a relaxed base for a golf break that can easily include time by the sea. The hotel directs golfers towards the courses at Hardelot, while the resort’s broad beach is only 1.2 miles away for a change of pace after the round. It is a useful choice for pairs, small groups and mixed parties, with 80 rooms and a suite, an outdoor pool open from May to September, tennis court, pétanque court and children’s play area. Four electric vehicle charging points in the car park also make a self drive trip straightforward.

The golf is the reason to come, with Hardelot’s courses close to the hotel and the surrounding forest and coastal setting shaping the feel of the stay. Return afterwards to a 32 square metre Charme room, looking over the park or forest, or choose a Luxe room with a king size bed and its own balcony or terrace. The second floor suite suits a four ball travelling together with family, providing 52 square metres, a separate sitting room, south facing forest views, and both a bath and shower. Complimentary Wi Fi is available throughout, useful for organising the next day’s tee times or keeping in touch with home.

Evenings centre on L’Orangerie, where traditional Boulonnais cooking makes use of produce from the local land and sea. Dinner is served daily from 18:30 until 21:00, while Le Saint Laurent bar keeps drinks flowing during the day and serves food and desserts from noon until 14:00. Neufchâtel Hardelot itself is under five minutes away, and Boulogne sur Mer is around 20 minutes by car. The beach runs for roughly 6.2 miles, with water sports and outdoor activities available when the clubs stay in the boot.
