Set within 345 acres of picturesque countryside alongside the River Sarthe, Golf de Sablé-Solesmes presents a rare opportunity to acquire one of western France’s most attractive golf estates.
Offered to the market for the first time, this established golf destination combines a high-quality golf facility with substantial residential and leisure development potential.
Ideally located in the Pays de la Loire region, the estate is within easy reach of Paris (2 hours 45 minutes), Le Mans (50 minutes) and Angers (50 minutes), making it well positioned to attract both domestic and international visitors.
The golf course features 27 championship holes, designed by renowned French architect Michel Gayon, configured as three nine-hole loops to maximise operational flexibility and tee-time efficiency. Practice facilities include a 12-bay covered driving range, 11 additional outdoor bays, two putting greens, a dedicated short-game area and three starter huts.
The impressive clubhouse extends to approximately 1,155 square metres (12,427 sq ft) over two floors, providing extensive food and beverage, retail and hospitality space. Supporting infrastructure includes a comprehensive greenkeeping complex and maintenance facilities.
Beyond its established golf operation, the estate offers exceptional opportunities for future growth. Planning permission is already in place for the development of 47 holiday homes, creating the potential to transform the property into a fully integrated golf and leisure resort. Additional assets include an archery centre with clubhouse and outbuildings, five cottages, three modern houses and parking for approximately 200 vehicles.
With its established reputation, beautiful riverside setting and approved expansion opportunities, Golf de Sablé-Solesmes represents an outstanding investment for golf operators, hospitality groups or private investors seeking a premium leisure asset with long-term value creation potential.
Tom Marriott, director of HMH Golf & Leisure, the property agents handling the sale, said: “This is a wonderful opportunity to purchase a fantastic golf course in the Pays de la Loire on the outskirts of the attractive town of Sablé -sur–Sarthe. With the planning consent in place and the existing properties on the estate, Sablé- Solesmes Golf Course has the potential to become a first-class resort.”
