Set in the leafy Cape Town suburb of Lake Side, Westlake Golf Course has gained an illustrious reputation as one of the Cape’s premiere courses for golf holidays in South Africa. The natural beauty and wildlife that the surrounding mountains have added bring forth an element that most city suburb golf courses can only dream of. The Westlake course is one of the ideal places to fully enjoy your South Africa golf holiday.

The greens are all Poa Annua which is a very delicate grass that requires lots of “tender loving care” but if managed correctly, delivers an excellent putting surface. Fairways, semi-rough, tee boxes and rough are mainly Kikuyu, as is the standard in South Africa.

The golf course is meticulously managed on a daily basis with the greens and the bunkers being maintained each day. The fairways and rough are mowed weekly and although the rough can be tough at times, you will surely enjoy your golf holiday in South Africa.

The golf club has a driving range which is a short warm-up area of distances no more than 160m. There are two chipping / putting greens surrounded by one bunker to sharpen your short game.
