Kingswood, RSA
Kingswood Golf Estate: Opened late in 2007, the Kingswood golf and real estate development is one of the newest on the Garden Route. Kingswood certainly rubs shoulders with blue-chip golfing neighbours. The long- established George Golf Club lies directly to the north, while the world-renowned Fancourt Links layout sits on Kingswood's western flank.
This predominantly open layout, with its good-width fairways, incorporates plenty of excellent quality bunkering and occasional water hazards. The pleasantly undulating layout commands picturesque views onto the Outeniqua mountains, which provide such an impressive backdrop to the town of George.
Visitors welcome on weekdays and weekends. Closed Mondays.
Must book in advance.
Contact club for full details, discounts, packages, etc. [Last updated: 2024].
Golf carts available for hire if pre-booked.

Kingswood derives its name from a picturesque village near Bristol, in the United Kingdom. The land on which Kingswood here on the Garden Route has been developed, was once the property of Queen Victoria.

Sony Open in Hawaii: played at Waialae Country Club near Honolulu, the Sony Open takes over the spotlight from The Sentry as the PGA Tour’s calendar-year opening event (Jan 15-18). The Sentry (not being played in 2026) was formerly known as the Tournament of Champions, with a field typically restricted to golfers who won a PGA Tour event in the previous calendar year.
Dubai Desert Classic: the DP World Tour’s first Rolex Series event of 2026, is contested for the 37th time (Jan 22-25). First won by Englishman Mark James in 1989, it now boasts a four-time winner, Rory McIlroy. Played on the Emirates Golf Club’s Majlis course, this once desert-surrounded course is the long-time flagship for Golf in Dubai.
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.
