Hole MAP
Hole 1
Hole Name
From The Tee The 1st hole is 434 meters and has a slightly uphill gentle dogleg to the left. The longer hitter can reach this hole, but care needs to be taken on the semi-blind 2nd shot to avoid the 3 greenside bunkers. A green that slopes gently from back to front awaits your opening putt.
From The Fairway
On The Green
Hole 2
Hole Name
From The Tee 528 meters from an elevated tee down into a gully and back up to an elevated sloping green.
From The Fairway
On The Green Only the longest hitters can reach this green with 2 very well struck shots. Ideally, the tee shot should be hit down the right side of the fairway with a slight draw to gain maximum distance using the slope of the hole. The green is one of 9 elevated greens on the course.
Hole 3
Hole Name
From The Tee After a short steep walk, the 3rd is a wonderful par 3 of 159 meters from the elevated championship tee.
From The Fairway
On The Green A well-struck shot is required to safely reach the smallest green on the course which is well bunkered. Once on the green, putting is relatively easy on a flat surface.
Hole 4
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway An elevated tee shot awaits on the 4th hole, a dogleg left of 372m. A drive pulled to the left is better than a drive to the right side as balls feed back to the fairway from the left.
On The Green A short iron is all that is required for the 2nd shot to a green well guarded by 3 bunkers. Par is a good score if you find any of the bunkers.
Hole 5
Hole Name
From The Tee Two good shots are needed to reach the small green of the 340 meters dogleg right 5th. A drive into a narrow landing area protected by a right hand side fairway bunker at 220 meters from the tee is needed.
From The Fairway
On The Green From here a mid to short iron to an elevated green is needed. Upon reaching the green beware of any downhill putt, as they are much faster than what you may think.
Hole 6
Hole Name
From The Tee The 2nd of the par 3s, the 6th hole is 176 meters in length. A narrow opening between the front bunkers allows you to run the ball on to the green if you are good enough. A large sloping green makes putting a difficult task if you are past the pin.

Hole 7
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway From the tee you face what appears to be a wide driving area. At 302 meters it is a short dogleg right but it requires an accurate tee shot to the left side to miss the fairway bunker.
On The Green Allow an extra club for your second shot but it is still best to be short of the pin as putting downhill is a challenge.
Hole 8
Hole Name
From The Tee A birdie chance on this 451m hole which doglegs left at around the 200 meters mark.
From The Fairway At the corner you are greeted by a wonderful view to the green and from here you can hit straight down the fairway to the gulley for a 3rd shot to an elevated green which is guarded by 4 bunkers.
On The Green Long hitters can take on the trees to be in a good position for a second shot to the green.
Hole 9
Hole Name
From The Tee A dogleg left 335m hole to complete the front nine. A long hitter can cut the corner over the trees.
From The Fairway
On The Green A drawing drive to the left is an advantage. A mid to short iron will be needed to reach the green, which is guarded by three bunkers, A deceptively sloping green puts a premium on your putting stroke.
Hole 10
Hole Name
From The Tee This is a short, par 4 slightly doglegging left hole of 292 meters. Played from a well-elevated tee, the green can be reached with the tee shot if the correct line is chosen.
From The Fairway The gums along the left-hand side will be the result if the drive is not long enough.
On The Green The safer shot is to hit 50 meters-100 meters short of the green. From here it is a straightforward pitch to a flat green. A definite birdie chance.
Hole 11
Hole Name
From The Tee
From The Fairway From the tee on the lowest point on the course, it is straight uphill 334 meters to the hole. You can really let rip with the tee shot to a wide-open fairway.
On The Green From here a good iron shot will be needed to reach the elevated green but make sure you have enough club, as anything short will come back down the hill.
Hole 12
Hole Name
From The Tee This is 475 meters long, uphill and slight dogleg left. The fairway slopes from left to right so keeping to the left side is an advantage but too far left is out of bounds.
From The Fairway
On The Green The green is rarely hit in two. Third and fourth shots are usually played from 50-100 meters from within the valley to an elevated green protected at the front by a deep bunker. Putting is also a test on this green.
Hole 13
Hole Name
From The Tee After reaching the highest point on the course, take a few deep breaths before playing the easiest hole on the course.
From The Fairway The 13th is 128 meters downhill to a smallish green that is bunkered on both sides.
On The Green Only a high well-struck tee shot will hold one of the firmest greens on the course that also slopes away from you. Anything over the green usually makes par difficult.
Hole 14
Hole Name
From The Tee The 14th is a slightly downhill of 408 meters. The fairway bends gently from left to right and slopes from right to left.
From The Fairway Another wide-open fairway waits, and a good line off the tee is the chimneystack of the nearby power station with a slight left turning shot to gain maximum length.
On The Green A good tee shot and a good second can make the two-tiered green. The green has a deep bunker on the left- hand side and some mounds and swales on the right.
Hole 15
Hole Name
From The Tee A nice short downhill dogleg left of 348 meters. There are no bunkers to worry about. The tee shot is played over a small wetland 50m from the tees.
From The Fairway The longer hitters can take on as much of the dogleg around or over the trees as they can to considerably shorten the hole.
On The Green The hole doglegs at around the 200 meters mark from the tee and most players can reach the corner. From here it is a short iron that can be run on to a flat green.
Hole 16
Hole Name
From The Tee The final par 3, this is a picturesque hole of 125 meters. Played across a valley to an elevated and small green, a well-judged shot is required.
From The Fairway Anything landing in front of or short of the green will quickly roll back down the hill.
On The Green There is a very deep bunker to the left of the green and one to the right. Once on the green, putting is not difficult, but beware of the speed putting from the back of the green.
Hole 17
Hole Name
From The Tee An uphill 366 meters to an elevated green, this is rated the most difficult hole on the course. A well-stuck drive can usually leave a long to mid-iron second shot.
From The Fairway There is a large bunker short left guarding the green, that can be avoided by playing out to the right as the ball will feed towards the green from this side.
On The Green Once on the green you can be faced with some severely sloping putts especially in the back half.
Hole 18
Hole Name
From The Tee Standing on the 18th tee you are looking at one of the most aesthetic finishing holes in the district. With the clubhouse forming a background you can finish your round in glory with a birdie or even possibly an eagle.
From The Fairway The hole is 455 meters in length. From an elevated tee the drive is played to a wide fairway. Depending on conditions long hitters can make the green in two. Most will be playing their third shot to the green.
On The Green The green is elevated and guarded by a deep bunker at the front left. There is also a bunker 50m short on the right-hand side. The green has four levels that make for some interesting putting.
