Mowbray Golf Course offers a relatively short yet demanding test of golf: the terrain is flat, but there are plenty of trees and water features and the wind is a significant feature.
The rough is however very forgiving and is kept well trimmed, the fairways are lush and the greens immaculate.
The course also offers beautiful mountain views and abundant wild life dominates the scenery.
It has hosted the SA Open seven times and the Bells Cup three times.
