Bellville Golf
Course is situated in the magnificent Welgemoed Valley, this
beautiful course is hardly affected by local prevailing winds. The
course is fairly challenging with a few water hazards and well-placed
bunkers. Always green and lush, never dry. This is a beautiful course
definitely worth a visit. Centrally situated in the Peninsula, within
easy reach from all major access routes, this course is a must for all
golfers. The 18 hole golf course, situated in the affluent suburb of
Welgemoed, is set in a sheltered valley of rolling hills with
panoramic views of the Hottentots Holland mountains in the distance.
Course Details: The 72 Par, 6000 meter course, offers the
golfer the ideal opportunity of a challenging round of golf. When
upgrading the course approximately three years ago, the course
architects made every effort to incorporate the natural contours and
features of the course. This resulted in a course that caters for
golfers of all levels of expertise.
Layout: The course is well bunkered, well watered and has 5
water holes. The greens are American Creeping Bent and the lush Kikuyu
fairways allow good lies. The practice putting and chipping greens are
situated near the Clubhouse. The dams and water canals are abound with
birds and wild fowl. The manicured fairways and greens are lined with
a variety of trees and specially created floral features, which all
add to the tranquil and pleasing setting.
Signature Hole: The attractive par-3 12th requires a testing
tee shot played across a large dam to a well-bunkered green.
Facilities: The modern clubhouse is in a prime location, with
panoramic views of the course and mountains in the distance. A secured
parking area is located just in front.
The club has a privately managed restaurant called "Fairways" which
serves up
the best food in town (ideal after that good round).
The club has a beautiful practice facility with a large putting green.
Motorised carts, as well as professional caddies and clubs are
available for hire from the Pro Shop. Block bookings and large groups
are welcome. Competitions every Wednesday afternoon, and all day on
Saturdays. |
