Description
GOLF DE MORFONTAINE, established in 1913, is located in Morfontaine, France, 55km north of Paris. The Duke of Guiche obtained permission from his father to transform an old polo pitch in the park of Vallière into a 6-hole golf course for the pleasure of the Duke and his friends. He liked Englishman, Tom Simpson’s taste for natural landscapes and his sense of aesthetics, so he was later commissioned to re-design the original 9-hole Vallière course. In 1927 The Duke of Guiche created the Golf Club Association that is still in existence today and Tom Simpson was commissioned to design a new 18-hole layout at Morfontaine, now called Le Grand Parcours. continued..
