The Golf
Sydney
NEW SOUTH WALES GOLF CLUB
New South Wales is more than just a golf course – it is an unforgettable experience of nature. To play golf at NSW Golf Club is to play golf how the game was intended to be played – at the complete mercy of Mother Nature and the golfer’s ability.
THE LAKES GOLF CLUB
The Lakes is one of Australia’s pre-eminent private clubs and one of the leading major tournament venues in Australia. The golf course provides guests with a unique opportunity to play one of Australia’s most famous layouts, in a serene environment on outstandingly presented playing surfaces.
Melbourne
KINGSTON HEATH GOLF CLUB
Renowned for its natural charm and strategies created by its superbly crafted greens and bunkers. Designed by Dan Soutar with bunkering from Dr. Alister MacKenzie, the course was opened in 1925. At 6,812 yards, it’s regarded one of the hardest courses in Australia, but also one of the best.
ROYAL MELBOURNE GOLF CLUB (WEST)
The West & East Courses at Royal Melbourne Golf Club are continually rated as the top golf courses in Australia. Dr Alister MacKenzie’s masterpiece is the most recognised venue on the world famous Melbourne Sandbelt.
VICTORIA GOLF CLUB
Situated in the heart of Melbourne’s rolling Sandbelt country, it offers a golfing experience on par with the world’s best. The beautifully landscaped course is designed to challenge both the amateur and professional golfer. One of the Sandbelt’s tougher courses, with lightning-fast greens and some of the best bunkering in Australia.
PENINSULA KINGSWOOD COUNTRY GC
Home to two championship golf courses and world class practice facilities, Peninsula Kingswood offers some of the best golfing terrain around the Melbourne Sandbelt. A fantastic variety of holes, elevation changes, twists and turns ensure that golfers’ abilities are well and truly tested on the Sandbelt’s new star.
Tasmania
THE METROPOLITAN GOLF CLUB
The Metropolitan Golf Club enjoys a reputation for having some of the finest playing surfaces in the world. Pristine fairways, combined with firm and fast greens, which are cut precisely to the bunker edges, provide a world-class playing experience for its members and guests.
CAPE WICKHAM GOLF LINKS
A unique collection of coastal holes cleverly routed around Cape Wickham Lighthouse, this is a testament to pure links golf that you will not forget. Every hole on the course has an ocean view, which is extremely rare, and no two holes are the same. The undulating course normally plays firm, allowing the imagination to go wild.
THE DUNES, BARNBOUGLE
The elder of the two courses, The Dunes is a spectacular example of traditional Links golf. Rated #11 in the World by U.S. Golf Digest, with its spectacular vistas of Tasmania’s North East Coast, is a links golf course unlike any other in Australia.
LOST FARM, BARNBOUGLE
Just a short pitching wedge across the river from The Dunes, lies Barnbougle’s second instalment – Lost Farm. Despite Lost Farm’s close proximity to The Dunes, it is remarkably different, featuring 20-holes that wind along the coast and through the coastal dunes.
