Our invitation to you now and in the future...come and enjoy the feel of our links course nestled in between the unique architecture of the village of St Francis Bay. The moderate length of the course will ensure a pleasurable game for the average golfer, yet provide the challenge of thinking golf for those wishing to break par 71. Our par 71 course includes five par 3"s and is destined to become the best 18 hole holiday course in the Eastern Cape.
