Golf du Medoc Resort in Bordeaux: A New Jewel in The Cabot Collection

The Cabot Collection, renowned for its luxury golf resorts, has set its sights on the illustrious wine capital of the world, Bordeaux, France.

The newest addition to its portfolio, Golf du Medoc Resort, now proudly rebranded as Cabot Bordeaux, spans a lush 400-acre estate nestled amidst verdant vineyards and the enchanting French countryside.

This expansion marks Cabot’s inaugural foray into continental Europe, adding a touch of French elegance to its already impressive lineup.

“Bordeaux holds a special place in the hearts of travellers worldwide, known not only for its rich history and stunning landscapes but also for its remarkable culinary offerings and universally revered wine,” says Ben Cowan-Dewar, CEO and co-founder of Cabot.

“We are thrilled to now have a presence in this iconic destination and look forward to offering guests unforgettable experiences that seamlessly blend exploration and cultural immersion with world-class golf.”

A French Fantasy for Golf Enthusiasts

Cabot Bordeaux

Cabot Bordeaux offers more than just a picturesque escape; it promises an immersive French experience.

The resort boasts two championship 18-hole golf courses, masterfully crafted by Bill Coore and Rod Whitman.

These courses, celebrated as among the best in Europe by Golf Magazine and Golf Digest, capture the essence of traditional French golf course architecture, reminiscent of the designs envisioned in the early 20th century before World War I brought a halt to this golden era.

“Anyone playing Cabot Bordeaux is going to enjoy a distinctly French experience,” states Bill Coore, golf course architect.

“Going from Cabot Cape Breton to Cabot Highlands to Cabot Saint Lucia to Cabot Bordeaux offers experiences that are as different and as varied as you could ever imagine.”

Luxurious Amenities Amidst Scenic Beauty

Beyond its exceptional golf offerings, Cabot Bordeaux is home to a 79-room hotel, a gourmet restaurant featuring regional French cuisine, and a world-class spa. The spa includes a heated indoor swimming pool, hammam, fitness room, and a variety of rejuvenating treatments.

For those looking to hone their golfing skills, the resort’s Training Center is equipped with golf simulation rooms, a practice course configuration, and a TaylorMade fitting room.

A Blend of Modern and Classic Design

Renowned UK-based design firm Russell Sage Studio is leading the charge in updating the resort’s interiors, ensuring a seamless blend of modern luxury and classic charm.

“I am thrilled to be part of the transformation of Cabot Bordeaux,” remarks Russell Sage, founder of Russell Sage Studio. “We are excited to collaborate with local artisans to infuse the project with a distinct sense of place.

The property will seamlessly blend modern and classic design elements, offering guests a home away from home enriched with unforgettable golf, dining, and opportunities for relaxation.”

Exploring the Wine Capital

Bordeaux, often hailed as the wine capital of the world, boasts over 250,000 acres of vineyards producing an array of award-winning wines.

The region is rich with historical monuments, museums, castles, and scenic quays.

Just a short drive from the resort is Saint-Émilion, a medieval village and UNESCO World Heritage Site famed for its ancient vineyards and underground wine caves.

With the Bordeaux-Merignac International Airport only twenty minutes south and a two-hour train ride to Paris, Cabot Bordeaux is perfectly positioned for those seeking both convenience and charm.
