Centrally situated in the Peninsula, within easy reach from all major access routes, this course is a must for all golfers. The 18 hole golf course, situated in the affluent suburb of Welgemoed, is set in a sheltered valley of rolling hills with panoramic views of the Hottentots Holland mountains in the distance.
The Course
The 72 Par, 6000 meter course, offers the golfer the ideal opportunity of a challenging round of golf. When upgrading the course approximately three years ago, the course architects made every effort to incorporate the natural contours and features of the course. This resulted in a course that caters for golfers of all levels of expertise.
The course is well bunkered, well watered and has 5 water holes. The greens are American Creeping Bent and the lush Kikuyu fairways allow good lies. The practice putting and chipping greens are situated near the Clubhouse. The dams and water canals are abound with birds and wild fowl. The manicured fairways and greens are lined with a variety of trees and specially created floral features, which all add to the tranquil and pleasing setting.
Signature Hole
The attractive par-3 12th requires a testing tee shot played across a large dam to a well-bunkered green.
