The Terre Blanche Hotel Spa Golf Resort is located at Tourrettes, Var, just southeast of Fayence, in the Provence region of France.

The Bouge family owned the estate in the 18th century. Actor Sean Connery then bought the property[1] comprising the château and its surrounding 266 hectares. He had it for 20 years before selling it to Dietmar Hopp[2] in 1999.[3] Hopp transformed the property into an exclusive golf resort with luxury properties, two championship golf courses and a world-class spa. It was ranked 5th in the CNN Money dream vacation home guide.[4] The domain is 30–45 minute from Cannes, Nice, and St Tropez, and 1 hour drive from Monaco.
