Milnerton Golf Club evolved from a 6-hole course at its inception in 1913 into the links type world class championship 18-hole par 72 seaside course that it is today, bordered by Milnerton Beach on the West side and Rietvlei lagoon to the East.
The course underwent a major change and renovation in 1995 with the development of the Milnerton Links housing estate. The new layout, together with all its features, has proved to be a huge success.
The course, surrounded by natural beauty, is a pleasure to walk. The course is in one of the windiest parts of Cape Town, and being flat and without trees offers a unique South African golfing experience that can be a challenge to even the most experienced golfer.
On most holes one hears the waves breaking just beyond the sand dune, and playing the holes back to the club house one has breathtaking views of Table Mountain and an abundance of birds on the Rietvlei.
The course is always in outstanding condition. Being built on a sand base the excellent drainage that makes it a favourite venue among golfers in the Cape’s winter months when other local courses are unplayable.
The Milnerton Golf Course’s 5-star East facing lounge is situated just off the beach and offers splendored sunset views over the ocean toward the Mother City – with Table Mountain to the South and Robben Island to the North.
Rated in 2013 by Worldgolf.com with 5 Stars for Design, Condition, Service and Facilities, Milnerton Golf Course is situated a quick 10 minute drive North of the city of Cape Town; and is easily reached on the convenient My Citi bus route from either Table View or the City.
