Zimbali Country Club
Tucked deep in the natural coastal forest, Zimbali Country Club is built around the remains of a ruined farmhouse, enveloped by the roots of a beautiful ageing wild fig tree. The luxury contemporary clubhouse is the gathering place for golfers and families of Zimbali Estate to unwind and reconnect at the many social events held here. Sitting on the outdoor deck, members can soak up golf course vistas through the dappled evening forest light, after a great (or gruelling!) game of golf. It is the perfect spot for all Zimbali Country Club members and their families to spend time cooling down or catching up.
The interiors have been designed with wellbeing and touches of luxury in mind. Modern techniques blend seamlessly with classic finish, evident in the carefully-selected décor and fittings in the cloakrooms, through to the colour palette, furnishings and layout of the restaurant areas – both of which offer wonderful service and a variety of appealing menu options. The well-appointed Pro Shop conveniently situated at the clubhouse caters to every golfer’s needs. Zimbali Country Club is an entertaining and vibrant leisure and dining destination that echoes almost 25 years of tradition, while sparking joy through celebrations and human connections.
Steenberg Golf Course
The Peter Matkovich & Hayes designed golf course, consistently named one of the best conditioned courses in South Africa Golf Digest’s Annual Top 100, attracts golfers seeking a premium golfing experience. Known for its hybrid plan, it offers traditionalists the opportunity to ‘bump and run’ (a rare shot in South Africa) in the rough around the greens, and to meet the challenges of strategically placed sand pits and waterways.The par-three, not-so-short 14th hole, features the largest green in Africa at 76 meters in length. Indigenous shrubs guard the green and the mound has been shaped to echo the distinctive mountain range behind.The 18-hole golf course was designed to make full use of natural features and hazards such as the vineyards, pine forest and gentle waterways. Its environmental diversity gives the course its unique character, with a backdrop of Table Mountain.The well-designed clubhouse has seen many golfers enjoying the 19th hole and hosting events. There is a pro shop and a golf academy. Visitors to the club can enjoy the driving range, chipping and putting practice areas. There is equipment for hire, and caddies and carts can be arranged weather permitting.
