Located amid renowned landmarks, the Milnerton Golf Club offers stunning views of Table Mountain, Robben Island and the Rietvlei Conservation Area. On a clear day, it is one of the most visually beautiful and unique courses for golf holidays in South Africa. The rhythmic sound of the crashing waves drowns out other distractions and provides a sense of calm focus to let you drive, putt and wedge yourself into this old and noble game.

The revamped links layout has new water features and bunkers, along with excellent new greens. Superb putting surfaces now welcome the keen golfer; these are a delightful addition to the stunning views of the surrounds.

While the course is a delight to the senses, it definitely offers quite the challenge to even the most seasoned golfers. This is more so during the summer months when the prevailing South Easter makes things difficult. The sea and the lagoon border most holes and there are 7 beautiful water holes just lying in wait to claim wayward shots.

The Milnerton Golf Course is a unique experience that you cannot miss on your golf holidays in South Africa.

Situated in the Fishhoek Valley, this parkland course is one of Cape Towns best golf courses for golf holidays in South Africa, boasting a unique combination of mountains, sea and lush fairways.

Known for its year round conditioning, the relatively short course possesses a unique character by virtue of its proximity to the sea. The dune lined fairways lead to excellent bent grass; while the many trees create shelter from the strong summer sea breeze.

The rolling computer-irrigated fairways complement visually pleasing water features, which impact the 1st, 10th, 15th and 17th holes. The signature hole is the 4th, a par-4 with out-of-bounds and a stream on the left, and a green guarded by a water hazard. The clubhouse presents a high vantage point not only of the 18th hole, but also the 1st and 10th which both feature sharp doglegs, to the right and left respectively.

We highly recommend this wonderful golf course for your South Africa golf holidays in Cape town.

This championship links style golf course lies high above the heaving Indian Ocean and the vast Knysna lagoon – a sweeping spectacle of fairways and greens rolling through the pristine indigenous landscape.

The terrain of rolling fairways, fynbos and eyebrow bunkers make the course difficult to walk making the use of golf carts a necessity. There are three signature holes, the 13th through 15th and they are all on the cliff that overlooks the Indian Ocean. The downhill holes, matched with classic sweeping fairways winding through forested areas, make for an unforgettable round of golf.

The Pezula Golf Course is one of the top courses in South Africa and we highly recommend playing here on your South Africa golf holidays.

If your golf holidays in South Africa include the Knysna on the Garden Route, we recommend you play at Simola, one of the best courses to play golf in South Africa.

Set high inland, Simola Golf Club, designed by Jack Nicklaus, offers stunning views across the lagoon. A good test whatever your standard of play, the course winds through two valleys and golf carts are a must.

The excellent Bent Grass, smaller than expected of a modern course, in typical Nicklaus fashion, are strategically designed to challenge the golfer to choose the right approach to them to maximise scoring chances. The second tee is in an elevated position and we loved the hang-time driving down into the valley.

This modern course with a mature parkland feel, is considered one of the best-conditioned courses in South Africa. It is cleverly designed, picturesque, and presents an enjoyable challenge to all levels of golfers. One of our favourite courses, to play here you have to stay be a hotel resident. Serious golfers will love Fancourt and it is the ideal base for South Africa golf holidays.

The Montagu course is named after the mountain pass of the same name and is part of the original 27-hole design at Fancourt by the legendary Gary Player in the early 90s. This classic tree-lined parklands layout underwent a major facelift in 2005 under renowned Scottish golf architect David McLay Kidd.

The upgrade saw two completely new holes, the 1st and the 9th, redefined bunkers and greens and the introduction of several water features such as the dam. Celebrated for its immaculate, round the year conditioning, the Montagu GC is currently ranked at #6 in South Africa, prime location for golf holidays in South Africa (Golf Digest, 2014). The signature hole is the Par-3 17th, reminiscent of the 12th hole at Augusta National, the permanent home of the US Masters.

Named after the mountain range that runs along the garden route, this parkland resort course has aesthetically pleasing design features such as rivulets and colourful gardens. Like its neighbour, the Montague, it is in magnificent condition year round and is a prime location to play golf in South Africa.

Although set in the same surroundings as its better known counterparts, the Outeniqua has developed an individual personality rivalling the others. Excellent water features and creeks interspersed with uphill and downhill challenges and excellent bunkering (recently renovated) are all augmented in the charm and challenge by the colourful flora to be seen throughout the course.

The views from the fairways, the knowledgeable caddies and the quality of the course combine to make this a must play course when on a golf holiday in South Africa.
