Course description

Hole 1 – Par 5 – Men: 448 | Ladies: 378

A very welcoming opening hole with plenty of room to land your first drive.

The only real trouble is Out of Bounds running all the way down the left hand side. Longer hitters will want to be left of centre to give a straight shot at the green. The green is long, narrow and 2 tiered with a bunker running along the left side. A great birdie chance even if you come up short with your second shot.

Hole 2 – Par 4 – Men: 379| Ladies: 340

The second hole is much harder than it looks from the tee. The fairway will feed your drive to the right making your second shot long and over the bunker if the pin is cut toward the back of the green. Anything landing short will kick severely to the right and is a chance of finishing in the bunker.

Hole 3 – Par 4 – Men: 347 | Ladies: 255

Time to open the shoulders on the drive with a wide fairway, just avoid the 2 bunkers up the left hand side of the fairway. The green is big with a large tier snaking across it. Finishing on the same level as the pin is preferred. The bunker on the right is deep and a tough up and down.

Hole 4 – Par 4 – Men: 360 | Ladies: 335

Another good driving hole with the ball feeding back the to fairway from the right hand side. The big hitters might want to clear the bunker on the left but the ideal drive is short of the right bunker. The green is another long, narrow green sloping from back left to front right. Aim left if the pin is cut short.

Hole 5 – Par 4 – Men: 315 | Ladies: 305  back to top

Uphill from the tee with a dogleg left. A drive of approx. 200 meters up the middle will place you in a good area to attack the pin with a short iron. The green wraps slightly around a large shallow bunker and has large swales toward the back making it a difficult hole if the greenkeeper is having a bad day.

Hole 6 – Par 3 – Men: 150 | Ladies: 140  back to top

The first of the Par 3s, the 6th hole has a large green with a big bunker running up the left hand side. Missing the green to the right is not a bad option. The green is quick from back to front so it pays to stay under the hole from the tee.

Hole 7 – Par 5 – Men: 500 | Ladies: 415  back to top

A tough Par 5 requiring a drive up the left. But don’t over do it, there’s a bunker up there. From there the fairway slopes severely right to left so fire your second shot up the right hand side.  Then the hard works starts. The green is large with a tier running across the back left-hand corner and bunkers on the right. Par here is a great result.

Hole 8 – Par 3 – Men: 150 | Ladies: 118  back to top

A great little Par 3 looking down on the green from an elevated tee. Club and shot selection is the key and difficult to judge. With a bunker either side of the green accuracy is as important as length.

Hole 9 – Par 4 – Men: 342 | Ladies: 247  back to top

The 9th doglegs right, back toward the clubhouse. A drive at the gum tree on the corner will feed back to the middle of the fairway.  Your second shot is to an elevated green and is difficult to judge the length. The green slopes from back to front with a small bunker on the right. Not a green to be putting downhill on.

Hole 10 – Par 3 – Men: 160 | Ladies: 133  back to top

The toughest of the Par 3s and whilst 160m doesn’t sound too bad it is all carry to an elevated green with a huge slope at the front of it. There’s a large bunker on the right hand side. A bogie here is nothing to be ashamed of.

Hole 11 – Par 5 – Men: 463 | Ladies: 438  back to top

Another Par 5 with a well placed bunker from the tee, best to leave the driver in the bag here. Your second shot is over the hill toward a spectacular green setting. You can chose to lay up 100 metres out for a full shot in or if you’re long enough you can run it to the front. The green is well protected with bunkers either side and slope at the front that will see a short shot roll back off. There are many subtle breaks here but a good 3rd shot should set up a comfortable par.

Hole 12 – Par 4 – Men: 328 | Ladies: 288  back to top

A blind drive over a large hill is what awaits you on the 12th tee. Preferably down the left or your approach will be over the deep bunker. The green runs left to right in behind the bunker and is flat and fast.

Hole 13 – Par 4 – Men: 360 | Ladies: 330  back to top

Plenty of room to drive here with the fairway joining the adjacent 15th. A very difficult approach with everything feeding down to the right and a bunker on the left side of the green. The green is huge with a tier running from front left too back right making a small plateau for a tough back pin.

Hole 14 – Par 4 – Men: 338 | Ladies: 317  back to top

One of the toughest holes on the course with an uphill drive and a well bunkered green, 3 in total. A drive up the left is needed as the fairway slopes to the right. Another long green sloping from back to front so leave your approach under the hole.

Hole 15 – Par 5 – Men: 444 | Ladies: 400  back to top

The last of the Par 5s is pretty straightforward from the tee with the extra wide fairway that joins the 13th. Your second shot needs to be threaded between the two fairway bunkers to leave a short approach to a teardrop green. There is no tier in the green but several swales that can make a 2 putt seem like a win.

Hole 16 – Par 3 – Men: 155 | Ladies: 143  back to top

A beautifully presented hole with a long bunker running the whole way down the left side of the green and 2 more on the right. A tee shot to the heart of this large green is all that is needed as over the back is almost a certain bogie.

Hole 17 – Par 4 – Men: 393 | Ladies: 364 – Par 5  back to top

Rated No. 1 for a very good reason. The drive is no problem but your second shot is long and uphill. 2 bunkers are on the left with one 20 metres short of the green making a difficult shot should you end up in there. Again the green slopes from back to front and is a scary proposition if you go past the pin.

Hole 18 – Par 4 – Men: 283 | Ladies: 240  back to top

A truly fantastic finishing hole that doglegs to the right and up the hill toward the clubhouse. There is huge risk and reward for the long hitters. But beware, there is a grass wasteland to right of the fairway and 3 bunkers short and right of the green. A long iron down the middle and a short iron to the green is the sensible way to go. The green has a large tier running across the middle. A pin cut at the bottom poses no trouble but one cut up the top can be very tricky to navigate.
