How We Ranked Golf Hotels in France
There is no recent ranking specific to French golf hotels: we have included the French resorts from the two European rankings from 2026, Golf World: Continental Europe (October 2026), 11 French resorts, and Leading Courses (February 2026), 17 French resorts, renumbered in order. The consensus ranking is the average of the two; a resort missing from one list is ranked 21st by Golf World and 27th by Leading Courses. In the event of a tie, the higher ranking takes precedence, followed by Golf World. This ranking is revised annually.
