Fancourt: Outeniqua
George, Western Cape, South Africa • Private
Overview
Fancourt is South Africa’s premier resort experience with three 18-hole courses and a nine-holer, exclusively reserved for members, homeowners and hotel guests. Outeniqua, a Gary Player design, starts outside the Fancourt clubhouse and meanders around the large estate, only returning to the clubhouse at the finish. Though it is regarded as the easiest of the Fancourt layouts—the Montagu and the Links are longer championship layouts—Outeniqua is subtly challenging on gently undulating terrain with tricky, fast-running greens complexes. There are water hazards on 11 holes, and the course is well-bunkered from tee to green.
