While Fancourt is well-known for its impeccable hospitality, gorgeous scenery, and convenient location, particularly for those travelling along South Africa’s Garden Route, it is also a popular destination for golfing enthusiasts from around the globe.
So, what makes Fancourt such a hole-in-one when it comes to the game of golf and the many joys that come with it? Here’s everything that you need to know.
Montagu
Lovingly designed by golfing legend, Gary Player, the Montagu golf course boasts stunning greenery enveloped by a breath-taking indigenous landscape. It promises a decent challenge for even the most experienced golfers without taking away from the fantastic opportunity for the less experienced to practise their swing and hone their skills. Here golfers can rely on a detailed stroke saver to guide them through the gameplay, providing distance measurements and images that only amplify the ease and enjoyment of their time on the green.
Outeniqua
Translated, Outeniqua means the ‘land of milk and honey’. The course has been rather aptly named as there are few other places where golfers can enjoy a game quite as smooth and satisfying. Compared to Montagu, Fancourt’s Outeniqua’s layout and design is slightly more forgiving, making it a sought-after choice for beginners and intermediate players alike.
The Links
Unsurprisingly, Gary Player has described The Links as his greatest ever feat as a course designer. The Links is best characterised by its dune-style landscape and undulating terrain, as well as the fact that it’s sure to pose a challenge to even the most esteemed players out there. Along with promising the game of a lifetime, the course has also received recognition for its role in ensuring sustainability in the Garden Route.
If you’re keen to experience your best game yet, Fancourt is where you need to be.
