What's the one hole at Golf de Combles that everyone talks about, and why?

Without a doubt, the par-3 14th hole is the showstopper at Combles. It plays downhill to a green guarded by a natural stream in front and ancient oak trees behind, demanding a precise iron shot. The views from the tee box across the rolling French countryside are simply breathtaking, making it a truly unforgettable moment in your round.

Definitely book your tee time well in advance, especially if you're playing on a weekend; it gets busy.
