Kingswood Golf Estate

From its perfect blend of design and scenery, to its temperate weather, you're certain to find Kingswood's Championship Golf Course a unique challenge, and one you'll want to take up again and again. If you ask a local, they will tell you that Kingswood has the best greens on the Garden Route and this is one of the main reasons why it is often frequented by the Sunshine Tour Players when they are not on tour. The design is inspired by the Home of Golf, St Andrews (The Old Course) in Scotland with its Links style open fairways, undulating greens and traditional pot bunkers. There is no other course in South Africa like it, which makes it a ‘must play’ if you are travelling in the area. This course is truly the Jewel of the Garden Route and should not be missed on any golfing tour.

The course is in fantastic condition, lush fairways and quick true running greens. Some long holes, but also open course. Good variety of holes. Golf cart needed as some changes in elevation. Tasty pies at the half way houses, and good food in the club house.

Oubaai Golf Course

Reviewed By Davetennick - Somerset West, South Africa

We were a group of 4 couples of varying ability. The course is a favorite of mine and the greens are amongst the best I have played on (very true and with good speed) - exceptional when you consider this is a coastal course. Arrangements in the pro shop were straight forward (we had Flook vouchers) and the staff friendly. The golf carts don't have GPS so you need to work out distances yourself or with personal devices. There are Green tees (Ladies) in play now which we weren't advised of either by the pro shop staff or the starter. Given that the Red tees were often the same as the Blue (and even White) tees this made it difficult for the ladies on some of the holes. Had a drink in the pub afterwards. Great setting and friendly staff made this worthwhile. Halfway house also efficient and good value
