Pegasus Golf & Sports Club is home to a well-rated and always popular golf course. The relatively open course is set against a diverse landscape of water features and the natural wetlands of Pegasus Bay, with a backdrop of mountains to the west. Although there are no directly bayside or ocean-view holes, there are plenty of golfing challenges on this well-crafted design.
This open parkland layout should not disappoint, with many attractive features and several excellent holes to enjoy. Good upkeep and presentation contributes to the appeal of this course, which has played host to the Ladies European Tour and Australian LPG Tour on several occasions.
As well as the 18-hole championship course, Pegasus G&SC features a range of excellent facilities including a driving range, practice greens, pro shop, tennis courts, and a well-equipped gymnasium. You’ll also find good food and a warm South Island welcome at The Bunker Bar & Cafe. One to include on your itinerary if you are in the Christchurch area.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends.
Must book in advance.
Walking permitted at all times. Golf carts available for hire.

Pegasus Golf & Sports Club has hosted many top level national and regional tournaments, including several recent NZ Women's Open, which are co-sanctioned with the Ladies European Tour (see our Tournaments section >by Venue >Pegasus, NZ).
New Zealand's 30th best course (Australian Golf Digest, 2025/26).
Presidents Cup: Geoff Ogilvy’s International Team take on Brandt Snedeker’s USA Team at the revered Medinah Country Club, near Chicago. The Internationals are trying to halt a run of 11 consecutive American wins. (Sept 24-27).
French Open: Continental Europe’s oldest national championship, dating from 1906, is once again staged on the Albatros Course at Le Golf National, near Paris. Defending champion is America’s Michael Kim. (Sept 24-27).
Our visit last month included two rounds at Golf de Chantilly, one of France’s most prestigious clubs.
It offers two superb layouts: Le Vineuil, a five-star championship course with a rich history, and Longères, an excellent four-star course that provides a strong and enjoyable test.
The wider Paris region offers plenty more. Courses such as Fontainebleau, Golf de Saint-Germain, and several other top-rated layouts make this area one of Europe’s most rewarding golf destinations, offering a mix of woodland, heathland, and parkland designs.
The Dutch: "It's no' just a game", as they say in Scotland, and that's certainly true at The Dutch. With 5-star services throughout, a lavishly comfortable Loch Lomond-inspired clubhouse, and a superbly designed and presented golf course, one could not ask for more from this top-end private club.
Join us at The Dutch from August 21–24 for the Festival of Golf, featuring the HotelPlanner Tour. Experience four days of top-tier sport, live music, incredible food, and unexpected surprises. Explore the grounds, connect with others, embrace new challenges, and dive into an unforgettable celebration. Click here to buy tickets.
