There is very little to say other than excellent about probably the best golf estate in South Africa. Everything was top class. We missed eating in their fine dinning restaurant, Henry Wines due to their internal communication but the management handle this in a very fair to ensure we were compensated. Without hesitation will return.

From the moment we arrived we were treated like royalty. The car was parked for us, clubs placed in secure area ready for the first round the following day. Sparkling wine or water whilst we did the formalities at reception. Then whisked off in a club cart to our rooms. All the restaurants were good , the White restaurant the best and incredible value.

The estate is well managed and the facilities are second-to-none. Food at the Henry White and Monet restaurant were exceptional. The evening meal at the Italian style restaurant was poor and not up to the standard expected for Fancourt.

We really enjoyed playing Pinnacle Point (what a spectacular course!), Goose Valley and Simola. Our visit to Fancourt was a great way to finish off our trip. We had a very good sized room and bathroom and a short walk from the main hotel and clubhouse. Although the weather was a bit mixed we thoroughly enjoyed our games on Montagu and Outeniqua. The game at The Links was the icing on the cake. It’s a fantastic course, we had lovely weather, good caddies and good company - it was the high point of the holiday!

We played this course after "The Links" and thought it would be slightly easier. It is not,very tight and plenty of water. The course management again encourage bird life and we lost count of the varieties that made the various water hazards their home. The 18th is a great finishing hole with a challenging shot over water to a sloping green in front of the club house. We may have lost a few balls but really enjoyed the course.

What a course. No 1 is South Africa. Will never play a better course. A real challenge from all tees. It was magnificent. it was almost a kin to a nature reserve interspersed by a golf course. The birds, wild life and scenery were just wonderful. A must to play for any golfer. Expensive but well, well worth it.

This is a very good golf course that can be played by all standard of golfers. We decided to walk the course with push trollies. A mistake, far harder than our home course and would recommend you take a buggy. It helped being paired with two members who knowing the course made for a very pleasant round. This is probably the easier of the courses a Fancourt but still a challenge.

We were apprehensive about the course as it was quoted as being the number 1 course in South Africa and you were required to take a caddy. However it turned out to be one of the most memorable and enjoyable days on a golf course. The caddies gave us some coaching on the practice range and useful tips around the course. They made us feel very welcome and relaxed. The caddy master even offered us a malt whisky on the first tee !

You are required to walk this course, but the caddies carry your clubs and help you on the greens. Warm up areas very good and your caddy gets an idea of your capabilities, or lack of them !!. Nice halfway house. Overall we would play there again tomorrow.

Not the No1 ranked course in South Africa for nothing. A superb course and a really tough test - even more so in driving rain and howling winds as we faced (the previous day was supposedly too hot!) Caddies a real must and excellent assistance provided. Its long and tough but very satisfying to get round!
