Reviews
This is a true gem of a golf course. We played there in February 2010 and it truly was a joy. Everything from the welcome to the bar after our round was uperb, but prode of place goes to the golf course. It is a beautifully laid out and maintained course with breathtaking views and superbly crafted holes. Playable by both high and low handicapers, if you are in the Cape Town area it is well worth the trip out to play here. Highly recommended by our party of 12.
Value For Money: Good
