Clovelly Country
Club: Nestled in the pristine and tranquil Silvermine Valley
close to Fish Hoek in Cape Town lies Clovelly Country Club. This
relatively short layout, built among sand dunes, rewards accuracy off the
tee and provides players with scenic views of the . Known for
its superb greens.
With its lawn bowling greens, tennis courts and one of the finest golf
courses in South Africa, Clovelly offers its members and visitors a
memorable experience. Clovelly - like fine Cape wines - improves steadily
with age, and its vintage and quality is well established throughout South
Africa, and indeed, beyond our shores. This reputation is founded on the
warmth of Clovelly's "family" character and its outstanding facilities.
Course Details: Clovelly ranks as one of the finest courses in
the Cape Peninsula. Clovelly was designed by Dr Charles Molteno Murray,
one of the best known golf architects of his day and advocate Bobby Lewin
was responsible for much of the magnificent landscaping. Together they
produced one of Southern Africa's most picturesque and challenging
courses.
Famous for its rolling, computer-irrigated fairways and undulating holes,
Clovelly complements its rich coastal environment. Natural sand dunes abut
the course, which is blessed with water features and a wide variety of
indigenous fauna - especially birdlife such as guinea fowl, pheasant,
peacock and steppe buzzard - and flora, notably the variety of trees which
line the fairways. Unlike some other local courses, there is no noise
intrusion from roads or railways, and both course and club house enjoy
privacy and security. Clovelly's championship-quality
greens (bent grass/poa annua mix) are among the finest in .
Signature Hole: There are quite a few tight holes, but one of the
best is the par-4 fourth, with out-of-bounds and a stream on the left, and
a green guarded by a water hazard.
Dress Code: Appropriate attire on the golf course and
smart/casual dress in the club house areas is expected at all times.
Members and visitors are encouraged to adhere to the dress code norms
applicable to a premier Club. (Only soft-spike shoes are allowed at
Clovelly). |
