Cornwall Optimists Golfing Society

2nd May 2012 - 6th May 2012

COGS En France Notice:  To ensure we get the trip under £400 we need to book the hotel within the next couple of weeks.

Can you please send a deposit of £110 each asap please.

The ferry will need to be booked in December so that is when the next installment is needed.

After a few years playing the fantastic Brittany courses Peter O’Brien thought it was time for change.

We have researched the market and located Normandy as a preferred option.

We will base ourselves in the Port city of Caen. Caen is William the Conqueror’s town and with an area of 5.5 hectares, Caen Château today is one of the largest medieval complexes in Europe.

The castle was used as a barracks during World War 2 and was seriously damaged. Despite the destruction of much of Caen during WWII, many of William the Conqueror and Queen Matilda’s creations still remain, such as the Abbaye aux Dames and the Abbaye aux Hommes, now home to Caen Town Hall...back to golf….

Confirmed so far...
