Swing a club on a South of France villa holiday

Keen golfers enjoying South of France villa holidays in Languedoc may wish to head to Beziers for a truly spectacular round.

It is home to the Saint Thomas 18-hole golf course, which is set among some stunning Mediterranean scenery and is suited to all levels of players.

Designed by Patrice Lammbert, Saint Thomas is described as a green haven surrounded by the colours of nature.

It presents a number of unique challenges, including water hazards and rough terrain designed to test payers.

A number of animals, including ducks, hares, and partridges have inhabited the course, bringing a certain extra something to the game.

After their round, golfers can relax in the restaurant at Saint Thomas, where an a la carte menu features a host of French and Mediterranean specialities.

Those renting South of France villas in Beziers will be just a stone's throw away from the course, so could fit in a morning round before enjoying other activities in the afternoon.

Beziers is filled to the brim with ancient architecture and attractive parks and gardens, as well as bars, restaurants and theatres.

For beach lovers, the Mediterranean coast is just ten kilometres away and can be reached by car.
