Kingswood Golf Estate

3-PLUS: Good course - several memorable features; worthy of 3½ stars.

Est. 2007

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.
