Golf du château des Vigiers
This is the closest golf course to the campsite, on the banks of the Dordogne river, about 30 minutes’ drive away.

Golf du Château des Vigiers welcomes you to a wooded estate with lake and vineyard for a timeless experience. You can practice your putt, approach shot, bunker shot or drive on the extensive driving range, or practice in real-life conditions on an approved course with par 3s and par 4s, or book an individual lesson if you have a green card or an official handicap. The quality of the greens, perfectly maintained, is beyond reproach. The variety of distances and layouts on the different courses is ideal for improving your game. Prices range from €10 to €25 for 6 holes, €12 to €42 for 9 holes, and €18 to €75 for 18 holes, depending on the month and the discount you qualify for during your mobile home vacation in the Dordogne.

Golf de la Marterie
In the heart of the Sarlat-Périgueux-Bergerac triangle, 1 hour from a campsite with swimming pool in the Périgord Blanc region, the 18-hole Blue Green de la Marterie golf course is appreciated for the beauty of its setting between undergrowth and heather-flowered plains.

The site also features practice areas: a bunker, a driving range, a putting green and a pitching green. Private lessons and group courses are available all year round. The La Marterie restaurant is open to all. You can enjoy traditional family cuisine, prepared with local produce from the Périgord region between Périgueux and Bergerac.
