The greens are watered overnight by a sprinkler system which uses only rainwater collected from the cottage roofs. This is stored in two large wells which used to serve as septic tanks for Les Crouquets pigs.
The pitch & putt course was created on a 2.5 hectare field which used to be planted with corn. The field was ploughed and then followed several weeks of hand picking stones & boulders - the land here is extremely rocky!
