Our activities JOHN CHEETHAM

Unique in the South of France, we feel privileged and excited to attend this great golf tournament which brings together enthusiasts and renowned professional golfers! Free and open to all, the competition welcomed no less than 7,000 spectators in 2019 and is now one of the major tournaments of the European Challenge Tour. John Cheetham Immobilier presents his brief overview of the competition and what awaits us this year!

GOLF DE PONT ROYAL: A unique place, an international course

The finesse of the course of the course, perfectly integrated into the natural environment, makes the Pont Royal golf course a golf course designed for international competitions. They alternate tactical and technical difficulties in an admirably maintained green space and offer a real sporting challenge to players of all levels.

THE HOPPS OPEN DE PROVENCE: A famous, unmissable tournament

The Hopps Open de Provence is a European professional men's golf tournament, a must-see on the French circuit. It is unique in PACA, the three other equivalent tournaments in France taking place in the Hauts de France, in Normandy and in Brittany. It counts for the classification of the European challenge tour.

How is the tournament organized? 138 players play 18 holes per day on Thursday September 16, 2021 (1st round) and Friday September 17, 2021 (2nd round) and at the end of the Friday night "cut", the lowest ranked players are eliminated. The first 60 and tied are qualified to play until Sunday! At the end of the tournament, the player who wins 3 tournaments in the same season automatically enters the European Tour.

Located steps away from the Luberon and the Alpilles, the Domaine of Pont Royal benefits from a jaw-dropping setting.

This gated community includes the magnifiscent 18 hole golf course as well as the brand new 9 holes. Pont Royal Domaine has two hotels, exquisit restaurants, an array of swimming pools and a Spa with quality Occitane products.
Golfing, horse-back riding and tennis are only a few of the many activities and entertainment facilities on location.

Many villas and appartments are located on the golfcourse, all with a character of their own. This harmonious design is a true collection of styles: natural materials that are as varied as the soils of Provence themselves: pastel shades of antique pink ochre and sand dune yellow.

It is truly the "village" spirit that shows the extent of so much beauty. The natural intimacy and serenity of the location are there to be enjoyed on a daily basis.

To fully understand and apply this method, here are the elements to take into account:
- Ying and Yang: two elements that oppose and complement each other at the same time.
- The five elements of nature: Water, Earth, Fire, Wood and Metal, which must be used in a complementary way.
- The orientation of the house: each orientation (South, South-East, West, etc.) releases different energies.

More than a decorative style, Feng Shui is a real way of life whose secrets we cannot tell you all in one article ... here are a few, however, so that you can start to soak up it!

1 - I select my land, my house

Avoid places that are too close to cemeteries, hospitals or prisons, as these are places with negative chi. Favor open places, close to nature and well cleared, for the good circulation of energy.

2 - I'm setting up my front door

The front door is very important in Feng Shui, because it is through it that one receives the energies. Ideally, the front door should be facing south, and the back of the house should be north. Feng Shui is also a harmony and a meaning of colors! Here is an example of how to choose the color of your front door: black, to enrich the home; green: for the good health of the household; red: for luck. The entrance should also be neat, and lead to a tidy and bright room.
