Golf de Baden
Baden
Golf de Baden is a lovely choice for a Brittany golf holiday, especially for UK golfers looking for coastal scenery, relaxed French charm and a course that feels different from the usual resort layouts. Set in Morbihan, close to the Gulf of Morbihan and the Auray River, the course is just 15 minutes from Vannes and around 1 hour 15 minutes from Nantes Atlantique Airport, making it a practical option for a short golf break in western France.
The 18-hole course is a par-72 layout measuring around 5,952 metres, with a compact 6-hole course also available by reservation. What makes Baden appealing is the variety: the opening section runs close to the river with views towards the sea, the middle holes move through more open countryside, and the closing stretch winds through pine trees before finishing near the clubhouse.
For golfers, this is not an overly punishing course, but it still asks for sensible club selection and good course management. The wider greens make it enjoyable for mixed-handicap groups, while the tighter tree-lined holes, water hazards and coastal breezes keep better players interested. The setting on the edge of the Morbihan Gulf and Auray River, with pines, broom and varied views adding to the experience.
Golf de Baden works particularly well as part of a South Brittany golf itinerary, with nearby courses such as Saint-Laurent, Val Quéven and Ploemeur Océan adding extra variety. For a France golf holiday with scenery, good food, coastal towns and easy-going golf, Baden is a very enjoyable option.

About The Area
Vannes is a superb choice for a Brittany golf holiday, especially for golfers who want historic streets, harbour views and easy access to the beautiful Gulf of Morbihan. Set in southern Brittany, Vannes gives you a lovely mix of medieval charm, coastal scenery, seafood restaurants and relaxed French atmosphere, so it works brilliantly for a golf break that feels more like a proper holiday.
For golf, our main recommendation is Golf Bluegreen Baden, set beside the Auray River in the Gulf of Morbihan Regional Natural Park. It is a varied course with plenty of scenery, making it a great fit for visiting golfers who want a round that feels connected to the landscape. We would also look at Golf Bluegreen Rhuys-Kerver, an 18-hole course on the Rhuys Peninsula, around 15 km from central Vannes, giving groups another strong local option.
Away from the course, Vannes is brilliant for exploring. We would suggest walking the old town and ramparts, spending time around the port, taking a boat trip into the Gulf of Morbihan, or heading out towards Belle-Île, Quiberon or the nearby islands. The Gulf itself is known for its island-dotted scenery and gentle southern Brittany lifestyle.
Our tip: choose Vannes if your group wants a French golf holiday with scenic golf, Breton food, harbour evenings and plenty of coastal exploring.
