Somerset East Golf Club

Description

Somerset East Golf Club is a charming and beautifully positioned 9-hole course set at the foot of the Boschberg Mountain, just outside the historic town of Somerset East. The setting immediately stands out: lush fairways framed by mountain slopes, open skies, and the peaceful atmosphere that the Karoo-border region is known for. It’s a course where the natural scenery becomes part of the experience, offering golfers a relaxed and visually rewarding round.

The layout features 18 tees playing over 9 holes, allowing for a full 18-hole game with varied angles and challenges. Its parkland style keeps things enjoyable rather than intimidating, making the course suitable for golfers of all levels. Fairways are generally forgiving, and the greens are well-kept, giving the club a reputation for being welcoming, friendly, and playable even for visitors who are new to the area. A small but comfortable clubhouse, practice facilities, and carts or pull-carts add to the convenience.

Beyond the golf itself, the club forms part of the broader Somerset East outdoor experience. After a round, it’s easy to explore the town’s heritage buildings, enjoy birdwatching in the surrounding landscapes, or venture into the Boschberg for hiking and mountain scenery. The combination of golf, nature, and small-town hospitality makes Somerset East Golf Club a favourite stop for travellers looking for a relaxed and scenic day out.
