Steenberg Golf
Course: The course was designed and built by one of South
Africa's leading golf course architects, Peter Matkovich. The private
Steenberg Golf Club is available to hotel guests, members and their
guests only. The golf course has been designed to take full advantage of
natural features and hazards.
The design of the central clubhouse is harmonious with the historic
architecture of the estate. The cool, airy rooms are fronted with green
French doors onto a terrace. The course was designed and built by one of
South Africa's leading golf course architects, Peter Matkovich. The 18
hole championship golf course meanders leisurely through the Steenberg
vineyards, pine forests and gentle waterways.
The course features four distinct areas: Wetlands, Parklands, The Cape
Flats and Fynbos. With five different tees, the course can be enjoyed by
all, from championship to junior level. Many golfers envy the superb
condition of this soft spike course and it is widely renowned for having
the best greens in Cape Town.
There are also a number of practice areas, including a driving range,
chipping area with sand traps and a large putting green. Many golfers

The Course: The first six holes of the course meander through
gentle, manicured parkland where, in some instances, tee shots will be
played off raised tee boxes amongst the vines. The course then moves
into the wetlands, which includes the testing par-three 7th hole played
to a green surrounded by water. It then enters the Heathland section
where white sands "islanding" the fairways are a natural hazard. The
round is completed under the splendour of stately oaks.
Club regulations: Handicaps allowed: 36
for Ladies and 34 for Men. Handicap certificates will be asked on the
day of play. The Golf Course is a soft spike course. It is essential to
book T-off times in advance. |
