Main entrance

The Terre Blanche Hôtel Spa Golf Resort is located at Tourrettes, Var, just southeast of Fayence in the Provence region of France. Sean Connery owned the property[1] for 20 years before he sold the château and its surrounding 266 hectares to Dietmar Hopp[2] in 1999.[3] Hopp transformed the property into an exclusive golf resort with luxury properties, two championship golf courses, the Terre Blanche Hotel Spa Golf Resort and a world class spa. It was ranked as 5th in the CNN Money dream vacation home guide.[4] The domaine is 30–45 minutes by car from Cannes, Nice and St Tropez, and one hour from Monaco.
